Raphael's film, which Prime Video has released as a surprise: it's 10 years old and has been nominated four times for a Goya.

The video-on-demand (VOD) platform Prime Video has unexpectedly revived one of the most unusual films in recent Spanish cinema. It's a dark comedy directed by Álex de la Iglesia, starring Raphael , which was nominated four times for the Goya Awards and marks ten years since its theatrical release in 2025.

My Big Night is a satire of the television world set during the endless taping of a New Year's Eve gala, where a group of extras remain trapped for days while everything around them falls apart. Raphael plays Alphonso, a music star willing to do anything to capture the media's attention, in a role that humorously parodies his own public persona.

The film, which hit theaters in October 2015, also stars Mario Casas , Blanca Suárez , Pepón Nieto, and Carlos Areces in the main cast, as well as a host of familiar faces , such as Terele Pávez, Santiago Segura, Hugo Silva, and Carmen Machi in supporting roles. Although it is not a typical musical, My Big Night plays with elements of this genre to build a delirious spectacle that escalates into chaos, as is usual in Álex de la Iglesia's filmography.

Despite not being a huge box office hit, the film was well received by critics and earned four nominations at the 30th Goya Awards: Best Art Direction, Best Sound, Best Costume Design, and Best Special Effects. It was also a finalist at the Feroz Awards , where Casas won Best Supporting Actor.

The re-release of this comedy on Prime Video almost coincides with the tenth anniversary of its theatrical release, and expands the possibilities of rediscovering this ensemble work, whose fast-paced, stellar cast, and ironic look at the world of entertainment have made it a highly celebrated rarity in recent Spanish cinema.
