With just a couple of weeks till the premiere of the new season of Acapulco, Apple TV+ decided to unveil the trailer for the new episodes of the comedy series. In its third run, the show will once again take place in two timelines: In the late 80s, a Máximo (Enrique Arrizon) full of dreams battles his way into making a name for himself in the hotel business, while present-day Máximo (Eugenio Derbez) comes to terms with the mistakes of his past. Season 3 is set to premiere globally on May 1.
The trailer for the new season of Acapulco takes us back to Las Colinas with present-day Máximo revealing that there are still plenty of stories he hasn’t told about his past. Back in the 80s, the show will chronicle a pretty good moment for the hotel, with business booming. This made young Máximo all the more eager to conquer his space and stand out as a model employee. However, his life becomes a lot more difficult with the arrival of a no-BS rival that decides to give him a hard time.
Additionally, some long-lost family members will pop up in some unexpected scenarios, and present-day Máximo realizes that he still has a lot to unpack when it comes to the roads not taken in the past. As for the rest, fans can check in to get a little bit of the same from the past two seasons: Hotel guests antics, laugh-out-loud moments and the charisma of both Maxes conducting the whole story.
