Canela Media, a leading, minority-owned technology driven company committed to redefining digital media experiences for the Latino community, announced today the premiere of “Secretos de Villanas,” a new original unscripted two-part and ten episode series, bringing together for the first time in the history of Hispanic television, six of the most iconic telenovela villains of all time: Aylín Mújica, Cynthia Klitbo, Gabriela Spanic, Geraldine Bazán, Sabine Moussier, and Sarah Mintz, formerly known as Maritza Rodríguez, in her first-ever appearance since her marriage and converting to Orthodox Judaism. The “Secretos de Villanas: El Encuentro” three-part episode will air on Canela.TV beginning October 20, followed by the seven-episode reality series continuation, “Secretos de Villanas: Las Vacaciones,” scheduled to air on a weekly basis thereafter.
The “Secretos de Villanas: El Encuentro” three-part episode will cover the initial coming together of the six diva-villains on set in Mexico City. Although a few have met at events and have worked together, never before have all six been together at the same time on the same show. This will also mark the return of Sarah Mintz [formerly known as Maritza Rodríguez] to television and the women will get to experience her as Sarah for the first time. They will share, laugh, cry and many secrets will be revealed.
The subsequent seven-part “Secretos de Villanas: Las Vacaciones” series will follow the six divas as they travel together via private jet to Cabo San Lucas, where they will stay at a luxurious villa with spectacular views of the Pacific Ocean. Over the course of their getaway, audiences will see them for who they really are when they’re not being novela villains and discover what unites them as actresses, women, wives and mothers as they share an intense and life-changing vacation together.
The two-part, ten-episode series is produced by Canela.TV in partnership with Enrique Sapene, and Rubén Consuegra, of River Waves Production. “We’re excited to partner with Canela.TV to produce this exciting and unique reality series and what better way for River Waves Production to make its debut than with such an innovative and groundbreaking concept that brings together some of the most iconic telenovela villains and audiences will get to see them like never before. To this date, out of all of the docu-series we have produced, this is the most emotionally charged and truly authentic,” said series Executive Producers Rubén Consuegra and Enrique Sapene, who will also host the three-episode “Secretos de Villanas: El Encuentro.”
