If you’ve just watched Prime Video ’s Drawn Together, originally titled Enfrentados: Marfil, and the ending has left you scratching your head, you’re not the only one. The Spanish romantic thriller, which recently premiered and was also screened at the Obsessed Retreat in Germany, where Hindustan Times was in attendance, begins with a young woman being assigned a bodyguard. It begins with a tense attraction between the two, soon takes a much darker turn as secrets, betrayal, murder, organised crime and a kidnapping pull them deeper into danger.
Sequel announced
The sequel is confirmed toward the end of the film, so the story is far from over. The cliffhanger at the end of Drawn Together sets up the next chapter, Drawn Apart, also known as Enfrentados: Ébano. So, while Drawn Together ends with several unanswered questions, viewers already know there is another chapter waiting to pick up where it left off.
The word “ébano” also has a deeper connection to Marfil, who uses it as her emergency code before it eventually becomes the title of the second film.
Drawn Apart will cover the second half of Mercedes Ron’s story and was filmed before the first movie even arrived on screen.
Starring Ester Expósito and Hugo Diego Garcia, the film is adapted from Mercedes Ron’s 2019 novel Marfil, the first part of a story that continues in Ébano. And while the film gives us some answers, its ending leaves plenty to unpack, especially when it comes to what happens to the characters and where their story could go next. Here’s a breakdown of the ending and what it could mean for the future.[ Warning: spoilers ahead]. With Alejandro dead and Marfil missing, Sebastián is suddenly trapped in a situation that is spiralling completely out of his hands. The film ends on a tense, unresolved note. Sebastián is surrounded by armed men, leaving his fate uncertain, while Marfil is driven away with Kozel. And that is where Drawn Together leaves the story. We never find out what happens to Sebastián or whether Marfil manages to escape Kozel, leaving both their futures hanging in the balance.
