Mexico’s Eugenio Derbez Starring in First Dramatic Series Role in Prime Video’s ‘El Juicio’ (EXCLUSIVE)
Mexican multi-hyphenate Eugenio Derbez is taking on his first dramatic lead role in a series, Prime Video’s ‘El Juicio.’
“It is complicated and devastating to bring to the screen the story of a father who seeks justice for his daughter, facing numerous obstacles that reflect many aspects of the reality of our country,” he noted, adding: “This is possible thanks to a great showrunner and screenwriter like Daniel Krauze (“Luis Miguel: The Series”), the experience of excellent directors like Roberto Sneider, Belén Macías and Jorge Michel Grau, and the collaboration of a very talented actor like Pedro Alonso, as well as an extraordinary cast.” “The series addresses deeply sensitive, complex and urgent topics, which required a bold and empathetic vision, something we achieved with the exceptional mastery of our talent in front of and behind the cameras,” noted Alonso Aguilar, head of local originals in Mexico for Amazon MGM Studios. The series will be released exclusively on Prime Video worldwide, with Derbez, Odell, Daniel and León Krauze, Sneider (“Arráncame la vida,” “Frida”), Visceral’s Javier Williams and Pablo Calasso as well as Reclaim Entertainment’s Mauricio Mota serving as executive producers.
