Colombian Rock Star Juanes Makes Film Debut in Prime Video Drama ‘Pimpinero: Blood and Oil’; Trailer Bows Ahead of Toronto World Premiere (EXCLUSIVE)
Colombian rock star Juanes makes big screen debut in Prime Video’s ‘Pimpinero: Blood and Oil,’ debuting trailer before bowing at Toronto (TIFF).
Juanes stars alongside Alberto Guerra (“Griselda,” “Narcos: Mexico”), Alejandro Speitzer (“The Head of Joaquin Murrieta”) and Laura Osma (“Goles en contra”) in the dramatic fact-based thriller set along the border of Colombia and Venezuela. The story co-penned by Baiz and Maria Camila Arias (“Birds of Passage”) takes place in the unforgiving desert between these two countries where gasoline smugglers known as “pimpineros” risk their lives transporting illegal fuel across the border. The series is produced by Andrés Calderón, CEO and co-founder of Dynamo, among the leading production companies in Latin America with such credits that include ”Narcos,” “The Head of Joaquín Murrieta,” “American Made,” starring Tom Cruise, and the much anticipated “100 Years of Solitude.”
