After many rumors and auditions, it’s finally confirmed that
Esmeralda Pimentel will be joining Erick Elías as the female protagonist of the
upcoming Televisa production ‘Pasión de amor’. Pimentel will play Lucía, and Elías
Marcelo.
It will be the first leading role for the beautiful actress,
who had important roles in such novelas as ‘Cachito de cielo’ and ‘Abismo de
pasión’. Such actresses as Danna Garcia and África Zavala also attended the
auditions, but it was Pimentel who eventually got the role.
She was originally supposed to act alongside José Ron in the
novela ‘Madre sustituta’, but the whole production was cancelled. She later
auditioned for another upcoming novela, ‘La Malquerida’, but finally got her protagonic
role in ‘Pasión de amor’.
The novela will be produced by Roberto Gómez Fernández (Cachito
de cielo, Alma de hierro), written by Cuauhtémoc Blanco and María del Carmen
Peña and directed by Francisco Franco. Unlike many others, it will be an
original story.
Meanwhile, Patricia Reyes Espíndola, Claudia Ramírez, Luis
Couturier, Helena Rojo, Eugenia Cauduro and René Strickler were also confirmed
to be acting in this novela.
Filming will kick off in the next few weeks, and it will
premiere in the first trimester of 2014.
