Some had hope Pedro Pascal’s Javier Peña might still take part, but new details on the Mexico setting virtually guarantee Narcos starting from scratch.
Notions of Season 4 following the Juarez cartel emerged with September word that location scout Carlos Muñoz Portal had tragically been shot to death in Mexico.
As to Pascal’s character, Newman would only say of Season 4 that “I’m confirming that it’s not about him.”
The Guadalajara cartel was a force in the 1980s, concurrent with the Colombian cartels.
