Meet the Stars of Netflix’s Thriller Series ‘The Accident’

The new Mexican drama series The Accident (Accidente) is now streaming on Netflix and is currently the No. 4 TV show in the U.S. While watching the story unfold, meet the cast and discover who plays the main stars of the gripping new series.

From Leonardo Padrón, creator of The Marked Heart (Pálpito), the drama series explores the fallout from a child’s birthday party that takes a tragic turn. After a devastating incident leaves three children dead, a close-knit community in Santa Cruz, Mexico, is torn apart as parents question whether it was truly an accident or if someone they trust is to blame.

“As each family tries to make sense of what happened, their relationships are tested and secrets come to light,” according to Netflix’s Tudum. Thankfully, the events told in The Accident are not based on a true story and are entirely fictional. The series stars Ana Claudia Talancón, Eréndira Ibarra, Erick Elías, and more. Learn more about the cast, below.
