Apocalipsis Z: Parte II — What We Know So Far About Prime Video’s Upcoming Zombie Sequel
- Jun 5
- 5 min read
Prime Video’s Spanish zombie thriller Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin, known internationally as Apocalypse Z: The Beginning of the End, is officially continuing with a sequel.
The follow-up is currently listed by Amazon MGM Studios as Apocalipsis Z: Parte II, with the launch status shown as “Próximamente”, which translates to Coming Soon. That means the sequel is on the way, but Prime Video has not yet confirmed an exact release date.
For horror fans, zombie fans, and anyone who enjoyed the emotional survival tone of the first film, this is one to keep firmly on the radar.
What Is Apocalipsis Z: Parte II?
Apocalipsis Z: Parte II is the sequel to Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin, the Spanish Prime Video Original movie released in 2024.
The first film followed Manel, a man trying to survive as a rabies-like infection spreads across the world and turns people into violent, aggressive creatures. Instead of being only a loud zombie action film, Apocalypse Z mixed survival horror with grief, isolation, emotional trauma, and the desperate need to keep moving when the world falls apart.
That emotional angle helped the first film stand out. It was not just about infected creatures. It was about a man trying to survive when everything familiar had collapsed around him.
And yes, one of the most memorable parts of the first movie was Manel’s cat, Lúculo, who quickly became a fan-favourite part of the survival story.
Is Apocalipsis Z: Parte II Officially Coming?
Yes, the sequel is officially in motion.
Amazon MGM Studios lists Apocalipsis Z: Parte II as an Original Movie with the status Coming Soon. The Spanish text on the press listing says that following the worldwide success of the Spanish Original film Apocalipsis Z: El principio del fin, Prime Video has greenlit the sequel.
That is the key confirmed information: Prime Video has given the sequel the green light, and Amazon MGM currently lists it as coming soon.
What has not been confirmed yet is the exact release date. Until Prime Video announces a date, the safest status for the film is TBA / Coming Soon.
Who Is Directing Apocalipsis Z: Parte II?
Carles Torrens is listed as the director of Apocalipsis Z: Parte II.
That is important because Torrens also directed the first film, meaning the sequel should continue with a similar creative direction rather than feeling like a completely separate take on the story.
For a sequel like this, keeping the same director matters. The first film built a specific tone: tense, emotional, survival-focused, and grounded in a Spanish outbreak setting. With Torrens returning, Parte II has a stronger chance of carrying that same atmosphere forward while expanding the scale of the story.
Who Is In The Cast?
Known cast members currently linked to Apocalipsis Z: Parte II include:
Carlos Alcaide
Julia Martínez
Berta Vázquez
Mónica López
Tamara Casellas
Santiago Vaca
Additional names have also been reported by film and industry sources, including:
José María Yazpik
Axel Medrano
Pedro Hernández
Javier Godino
Ujin Moreno
Mario Mayo
Lucía Moreno
As with any upcoming film, cast details may be updated as Prime Video releases more official information.
What Could The Sequel Be About?
The first film dealt with the beginning of a devastating global infection, as Manel tried to stay alive and find safety in a world quickly falling apart.
For the sequel, reports suggest the story may expand beyond the original survival journey and move into a wider stage of the outbreak. Some industry coverage has described the Canary Islands as one of the last safe refuges in Europe after the spread of the TSJ virus, with a mission heading back to the mainland in search of vital supplies.
That kind of setup could make Apocalipsis Z: Parte II bigger than the first movie.
The original film had a strong road-survival structure, with danger constantly pushing the characters from one unsafe place to another. A sequel with island refuges, supply missions, and divided motives could give Prime Video a larger survival-horror canvas to work with.
If the first film was about surviving the beginning of the collapse, the sequel could be about what comes after: fragile safe zones, desperate choices, and the human cost of trying to rebuild when the infected are still everywhere.
Why Horror Fans Should Keep Watching This One
Zombie films are everywhere, but Apocalypse Z had a few things that helped it stand apart.
First, it was not just about the outbreak. The film gave Manel an emotional reason to keep going, and that gave the survival story more weight.
Second, the Spanish setting gave the movie a different feel from many American zombie thrillers. It helped the film avoid feeling like just another copy of the same post-apocalyptic formula.
Third, the film balanced action, horror, and personal survival in a way that made the story accessible to a wide audience. You did not need to be a hardcore zombie fan to connect with it.
That gives the sequel a strong foundation. If Apocalipsis Z: Parte II can build on the first film’s emotional tension while expanding the scale of the outbreak, Prime Video could have another strong international horror title on its hands.
Does Apocalipsis Z: Parte II Have A Release Date?
Not yet.
Amazon MGM Studios currently lists the film as Coming Soon, but no exact Prime Video release date has been confirmed.
That means any specific date should be treated carefully until Prime Video makes it official. For now, the safest release status is:
Release date: TBA / Coming Soon

Final Thoughts
Apocalipsis Z: Parte II is not a brand-new surprise announcement, but it is absolutely a title worth watching.
With Prime Video listing the sequel as coming soon, Carles Torrens returning as director, and Nostromo Pictures involved again, this looks like a proper continuation of the Spanish zombie survival story rather than a loose follow-up.
For now, the biggest thing fans are waiting for is a confirmed release date and the first official trailer.
Until then, Apocalipsis Z: Parte II stays firmly on the MGTDb watchlist.
