The film industry is buzzing with excitement as Goodfellas, a renowned production company, announces a new joint venture with Enrique López Lavigne, a prolific Spanish producer. The new partnership, aptly named Goodapatxe, aims to produce ambitious projects with Spanish talent and international appeal. This is a game-changer for the Spanish film industry, which has long been known for its unique storytelling and cinematic vision.

Enrique Lavigne has been a driving force in the Spanish independent cinema scene for over three decades. He started his career as a film buyer for Canal Plus and later moved into distribution at Sogecine. Lavigne's production credits include films by established filmmakers such as Isabel Coixet, Javier Fesser, Julio Medem, Juan Carlos Fresnadillo, and Daniel Calparsoro. His expertise and diverse range of projects have contributed significantly to the growth of the Spanish film industry.

The first projects in development are a Spanish historic film noir, a western, and a science fiction picture, as well as four additional genre feature films directed by young Spanish authors. These projects will not only showcase the rich cultural heritage of Spain but also intrigue international audiences.

Goodapatxe's mission is to discover and develop new talent, capable of overcoming language, genre, and format barriers to appeal to international audiences. The company's goal is to adapt to the fresh challenges of the new configuration of the audiovisual industry. As Lavigne puts it, "Nothing could make me happier than to contribute to the constant reinvention of cinema with the best partners possible."
