Telemundo Sets 'Velvet El Nuevo Imperio' Premiere Target

L to R: Humberto Zurita, Carolina Miranda, Yon González​, Samantha Siqueiros​, Danilo Carrera, ... More Chantal Andere star in Telemundo's adaptation of "Vevet." Telemundo's remake of the Spanish hit series Velvet has picked up its new official title, added several high-profile cast members, and zeroed in on when it will make its premiere. Now titled Velvet El Nuevo Imperio, production began in late February, with Spain's Yon González (Las Chicas del Cable, Memento Mori) and Mexico's Samantha Siqueiros (Casa de Papel: Berlin, Señora Acero) starring as star-crossed lovers Alberto Márquez and Ana Velázquez, trying to make their mark in the high-stakes world of fashion. Miguel Ángel Silvestre (Sky Rojo, Sense8) and Paula Echevarría (Gran Reserva, Velvet Colección) portrayed these roles in the original series. ​Coming on board the ensemble cast are legendary Mexican actor and producer Humberto Zurita (La Reina del Sur) as patriarch Benjamín Márquez, and Carolina Miranda (Fake Profile, ¿Quién mató a Sara?) as Cristina Otegui, a charming yet manipulative antagonist. Chantal Andere (El maleficio, El Conde: Amor y honor) plays Blanca Morales, a resilient woman who rises from humble seamstress to head of the atelier at Velvet. Danilo Carrera takes on the role of male antagonist Carlos Aristizábal, while Itatí Cantoral portrays Isabel Juárez. Marking her return to a Telemundo production is Sonya Smith as Pilar Márquez, her first role with the network since Falsa Identidad in 2018. Telemundo released its first video teaser for the series ahead of its planned May premiere. The original Velvet, created by Ramón Campos and Gema R. Neira and produced by Bambú Producciones for Atresmedia Televisión, aired from 2014 to 2016 and was set in a 1950s Spanish fashion house. Telemundo's adaptation reimagines the story in modern-day New York. Directed by Danny Gavidia, Miguel Varoni, and Ricardo Schwarz, and adapted by Sandra Velasco, Velvet El Nuevo Imperio is being filmed at Telemundo Center's state-of-the-art facilities in Miami.
