Narcos Mexico is back for its third and final season with new characters this time. The initial two seasons of the spinoff to Narcos (focusing primarily on Pablo Escobar), focused on the modern war on drugs in the country. As Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo (Deigo Luna) goes to jail at the end of season two, viewers will watch his empire crumble and new players join the game.

Throughout season two Gallardo eventually convinced himself that both, Mexican and US governments cannot touch him. Adding to this were the warring factions between and within the cartels. All these things taken into consideration, Gallardo found himself jailed by the end of season two. And Luna confirmed that he won’t be returning to Narcos: Mexico.

“It’s a system that creates these characters and gets rid of them when they’re not needed anymore. In actuality, it’s not good and bad,”, said Luna even before the second season. He continued, “It is not good people chasing the bad guy. It’s a system where corruption is present everywhere, and it’s a system that involves government, police, military, banks on both sides of the border.”

Narcos: Mexico- recurring characters

While Luna’s Gallardo might not be back, there are many characters that keep the Narcos Mexico going. First of those is Scoot McNairy as Walt Breslin. McNairy plays the role of a DEA agent and is the narrator of the Netflix Original. Along McNairy is Matt Letscher as Jamie Kuykendall.

Fans can also expect to see more of Amado Carillo Fuentes (José María Yazpik) the new drug kingpin overtaking the power vacuum Gallardo left behind. There is also Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman (Alejandro Edda),and Hector Palma (Gorka Lasaosa), both of whom are responsible for forming the Sinaloa Cartel.

Alberto Ammann reprises his roles as Colombian drug lord Pacho Herrera in the Netflix series and Alfonso Dosal, Mayra Hermosillo and Manuel Masalva as Tijuana cartel founders Benjamn Arellano Felix, Enedina Arellano Felix, and Ramón Arellano Felix, respectively.

Puerto Rican rapper Bad Bunny makes his acting debut with Narcos Mexico as Arturo “Kitty” Paez. Part of the Arellano Felix gang named “Narco Juniors”, the group consists of young and rich kids with powerful connections. They join the cartel for the money, power, and, of course, drugs.
