The Latin-American actor, producer, and writer Joey Dedio, along with José Luis Martínez, creative director and co-founder of Miami Media & Film Market and consultant/producer for Lucky Seventeen Entertainment, LLC, are promoting a family TV series project based on the film Tío Papi, which Dedio starred in and wrote in 2013. The film was broadcast on HBO.

Spanglish Movies, owned by Gustavo Aparicio, represents this IP. “Tío Papi was a success on HBO, and the sequel has everything to become an even bigger success. With the support of the Miami Film Commission for its production, we are sure that this intellectual property has everything to conquer the Hispanic and Latin American public,” Aparicio highlighted.

“I’ve always had a good relationship with the Florida Film Commission, and they wanted me to bring family films to the region. I created Tío Papi, a moving story about an uncle whose sister and brother-in-law die in a car accident and suddenly becomes the guardian of his six nephews, turning his life upside down,” said Dedio.

He added that they have always wanted to make a TV series about Tío Papi, with the uncle raising six nephews with ages ranging from five to 16 years old. The series is designed for 26 30-minute episodes.

They also have great support from Camacol (Latin Chamber of Commerce and Industry of USA) and the Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau. “Florida supports us because it is a family TV show,” said Dedio.

NATPE Global selected the project to be presented at its January 2024 event.

“Dedio is an outstanding actor, writer, and showrunner native of Miami who achieved notable success with Tío Papi. His series, based on this original concept combining a heartfelt, family-friendly narrative with music, appeals to a wide audience: it’s fun for kids, modern for teens, and emotionally resonant for adults. We are very proud to collaborate with Joey, who is organizing a masterclass for NATPE. Additionally, we express our gratitude to the Miami-Dade Film Commission for their unwavering support of all of our Miami-based intellectual properties,” concluded Aparicio.
