How to Watch Collision Course on Netflix
Collision Course premieres on Netflix on Friday, October 30, 2026. The Spanish crime thriller, called Colisión in Spain, is the first thriller from director Daniel Sánchez Arévalo. It opens with a group of robbers storming a bank in Madrid at the height of the financial crisis, and what looks like an ordinary robbery turns into a game of deception, fear and survival.
Netflix sums it up as a thriller in which no one is quite who they appear to be. It's a Netflix film, so it streams in the U.S. on the same day it launches worldwide.

What Collision Course is about
The story is set in Spain in 2013. A crew robs a bank in Madrid, and a crash during the getaway exposes the hidden side of each thief, along with betrayals and lies that started long before the heist. Every decision matters, every gesture hides something, and everyone is trying to escape from more than just prison.
Sánchez Arévalo is best known for dramas and comedies like Dark Blue Almost Black, Seventeen and Cousinhood. He has said producer Ramón Campos asked whether he wanted to try a different genre, and he said yes right away. Bambú Producciones also made The Asunta Case, Cocaine Coast and A Widow's Game.
