October 22nd, 2025 - Now available the trailer and poster for “Mrs Playmen,” the new seven-episode Netflix series produced by Aurora TV and inspired by the story of Adelina Tattilo, publisher of Italy's most famous erotic magazine. The first two episodes of the series - which will be available exclusively on Netflix from November 12th - will premiere today at the 20th edition of the Rome Film Festival, out of competition in the Freestyle section.
The cast includes Carolina Crescentini (Adelina Tattilo), Filippo Nigro (Chartroux), Giuseppe Maggio (Luigi Poggi), Francesca Colucci (Elsa), Domenico Diele (Andrea De Cesari), Francesco Colella (Saro Balsamo), Lidia Vitale (Lella), and Giampiero Judica (Don Rocco). The series is directed by Riccardo Donna and written by Mario Ruggeri, head writer, together with authors Eleonora Cimpanelli, Chiara Laudani, Sergio Leszczynski, and Alessandro Sermoneta.
Adelina Tattilo is Mrs. Playmen, editor of Italy's first erotic magazine and a groundbreaking force in the conservative and judgmental Rome of the 1970s. A pioneering entrepreneur at a time when women were confined to the role of mothers and housewives, she is a dedicated Catholic but also a daring nonconformist, at the forefront of the battles for divorce, abortion rights, and female empowerment. When her husband, Saro Balsamo, abandons her, leaving her alone to face creditors as the only owner of an empire on the verge of collapse, Adelina does not give up. She reinvents Playmen, transforming it into a sophisticated, cutting-edge publication and, challenging the deep-rooted masculinity of the time, gathers around her a team of brilliant intellectuals, daring creatives, and visionary photographers. Together, they overthrow taboos, provoke the establishment, and spark a cultural revolution, issue after issue, scandal after scandal.
Mrs Playmen: the story of a magazine that rewrote the rules of Italian society.
