Actor, writer and director Christoforos Papakaliatis has spoken about the fourth and final season of Maestro, which is scheduled for release in December, describing the series as the most demanding and longest-running project of his career.
Speaking at the 67th Thessaloniki International Film Festival, Papakaliatis reflected on the show's five-year journey, which began in 2021 and became the project into which he invested much of his creative energy.
"Maestro, in particular, was five years of my life. It was the longest project I've ever worked on and I became deeply attached to every part of it. It's the project I've worked hardest for. I've knocked on the most doors, asked for the most things and I feel immense gratitude towards the people who helped make it happen," he said.
Papakaliatis was unequivocal that the upcoming season will be the last.
According to the creator, one of the reasons he accepted Netflix's proposal for an additional season was his desire to tell more stories through the characters he had created.
"The characters will have the ending they deserve," he said.
He also praised the cast, noting that the series features eleven actors whom he considers equal protagonists.
"Each one, with their own talent and personality, took their role and elevated it," he said.
