José Alberto Castro’s newest production 'La malquerida' will
begin filming in the next weeks, and its four protagonists have been revealed.
The four actors that will lead the story are Jorge Salinas, Victoria Ruffo,
Adriana Louvier and Osvaldo de León. Rumors regarding De Leon’s participation
began in October, when he announced he’ll be quitting his theater play 'Cuatro
XXXX'.
The novela will be based on the book of Jacinto Benavente,
and its story was already produced as a movie in 1949. The book tells the story
of the romance between Doña Raymunda and Don Esteban, who get married after she
lost her husband, but her daughter Acacia couldn’t accept their relationship.
Acacia later realized that she actually felt very attracted to her stepfather,
who began to kill the suitors of his stepdaughter, and thus earning her the
nickname 'la malquerida' (the unloved).
It was revealed that very soon more details will be revealed
about the filming and the rest of the cast.
