Elite has become one of the longest-running shows on Netflix.
Created by Carlos Montero and Dario Madrona, the Spanish teen drama follows the lives of three working-class students who enroll at an elite school through a scholarship program, where they navigate relationships and other tribulations with their wealthy classmates.

The show’s cast includes Itzan Escamilla, Miguel Bernardeau, Maria Pedraza, Miguel Herran, Jaime Lorente, Álvaro Rico, Arón Piper, and Mine El Hammani.
Elite’s first season debuted in 2018, with all eight episodes of its eighth season arriving on Netflix on July 26, 2024.
Is Elite season 8 the final season?
As confirmed in October last year, Elite’s eighth season is officially its last.
In a statement at the time, co-creator Carlos Montero said: “We ended on a high note. Jaime [Vaca, co-showrunner], Netflix and I thought it was time to end it. I say this with great regret because it’s been several incredible years in which I’ve met wonderful actors, we’ve worked with all the directors we wanted to work with and we’ve had the luxury of having Maribel these last two seasons.
“Elite changed everyone’s life, there are actors who started with us and it has been their springboard to be now world stars. It is happening to this cast and it is a pride to have contributed to that and to know that they have seen us all over the world and liked it.”
Are there any Elite spin-off shows?
While not technically a spin-off, an Indian version of Elite, titled Class, debuted on Netflix in February last year. It has since been renewed for a second season, which is expected to come out at some point in 2024.
