3% is an upcoming Brazilian thriller series. It is a reboot of a 2011 web series of the same name created by Pedro Aguilera which had its pilot episode produced and uploaded to YouTube.[2] It will be Netflix's first original production shot in Brazil, and will be one of Netflix's first shows produced in a language other than English.[3] 3% will star Bianca Comparato and João Miguel.

The show is set in a future where people are given a chance to go to the "better side" of a world divided between progress and devastation, but only 3% of the candidates succeed.[4] Netflix has given the show a one season order with a 7 episodes first season set to debut in late 2016.[5] Cesar Charlone, an Academy Award nominated cinematographer known for City of God and Blindness, will serve as executive producer alongside Tiago Mello.
