Netflix/Handout via REUTERS Acquire Licensing RightsLONDON, Oct 18 (Reuters) - Fans of Spanish series "Elite" and South Africa's "Blood & Water" will be treated to an international storyline in the next instalments that sees two characters from the popular Netflix shows cross, creators said.
The exchange gave a boost to cast, creators and characters, said "Blood & Water" creative producer Nosipho Dumisa-Ngoasheng.
Both shows being set in the world of private schools made writing the crossover scenes easier, said "Elite" co-showrunner and writer Jaime Vaca.
"Elite" Season 7 starts streaming on Oct. 20.
