Clara Galle, Claudia Salas & Paula Usero Lead Netflix’s Next Big Thriller—Here’s Everything We Know About That Night!

Netflix has officially announced the start of production for That Night, an upcoming drama-thriller series based on Gillian McAllister’s Sunday Times bestselling novel of the same name. With an all-star cast featuring Clara Galle, Claudia Salas, and Paula Usero, the series promises to be a gripping exploration of family bonds, moral dilemmas, and the lengths people will go to in order to protect their loved ones.

Filming has begun in the Dominican Republic and Spain, with a talented creative team behind the adaptation.

A Thrilling Story of Family, Secrets, and Tough Choices

Set against the backdrop of a family vacation in the Dominican Republic, That Night follows Elena (Clara Galle), who accidentally hits a man with her car one fateful evening. Panicked and desperate, she calls her sisters, Paula (Claudia Salas) and Cris (Paula Usero), for help.

When they arrive, the sisters face an impossible decision: turn Elena in or cover up the accident to protect her. With the fear of Elena losing her freedom—and her child growing up without a mother—they make a choice that will change their lives forever.

As the story unfolds, That Night explores themes of family loyalty, moral compromise, and the emotional burden of secrets, keeping viewers on edge as they question what they would do in the same situation.

Gillian McAllister on the Netflix Adaptation

Author Gillian McAllister, whose novel has been published in over 10 languages worldwide, expressed her excitement about the series, saying:

*“I’m so honored that Netflix Spain is filming a series based on my novel *That Night, which asks the question: how far would you go for your sibling? Would you lie for them? Would you commit a crime for them? And—finally—would you bury a body with them? And if you did, what would the fallout be? This novel set people talking in the UK, and I can’t wait for it to reach screens across the world with this amazing cast.”
