Telemundo Internacional announced today at a press conference held in Cannes, France, that the well-known Mexican actress Aracely Arámbula will play the leading role in the new telenovela based on Victor Hugo’s classic work Les Miserables, to be produced by Telemundo in 2014. The Venezuelan screenwriter Valentina Párraga – writer for Telemundo’s ratings successes La Reina del Sur (The Queen of the South) and La Patrona (The Return) heads the adaptation of this new mega-production by Telemundo Studios. Arámbula had a resounding success in the leading role in La Patrona –a story that mirrors the famous novel The Count of Monte Cristo– in which she embodied Gabriela Suárez, a woman seeking justice from those who robbed her of what she loved most. Now, the Mexican actress returns in another grand production, the first Spanish-language telenovela based on the epic French drama.”We are very proud of this project, which is another brilliant production that will carry our brand, and we anticipate it will have excellent results,” stated Marcos Santana, president of Telemundo Internacional. “Telemundo is the only Spanish-language company that leads in this type of melodrama-genre offer for international markets,” he added.”This Les Miserables adaptation is in pre-production and will be filmed entirely in Mexico – a country which will provide sceneries for this story that cannot be found anywhere else,” said Joshua Mintz, executive VP of Fiction Programming and general manager of Telemundo Studios. “Soon, we look forward to announcing the full cast of this production, as well as the directors, producers and team members that will have a part in its success,” shared Mintz.
