The film was directed by two famous Latin American filmmakers, Laura Mora and Alex Garcia Lopez, while Márquez's two sons acted as executive producers. According to the family, Márquez was not very enthusiastic about this proposal at the time because of concerns that the limited technology at that time would not accurately convey the story's content, as well as Hollywood's "involvement" in ensuring global revenue could turn a story from his homeland into a problem for the Western world .

This is not without basis when the original work tells about 7 generations of a family with many historical events, requiring an extremely large number of actors. In addition, the characteristic magical realism, if it wants to be truly authentic, also requires suitable technology. However, 10 years after his death, the above concern no longer exists. Netflix's film adaptation is considered to be quite close to the original, with a cast that is also entirely native and speaks Spanish. It is known that the film crew designed a set of more than 500,000 m2 with a crew of nearly 900 people and more than 20,000 extras.
The project also cost Netflix a large investment and is known as one of the most expensive Latin American series in history. And not only the writer's readers "benefited", but according to the latest report, his native Colombia also earned 52 million USD during filming. The second and final part, consisting of 8 episodes, has not yet announced a release date.
