Telemundo has scheduled the eagerly anticipated premiere of the return of “La Reina del Sur” for Monday, April 22 at 10pm/9c.
The most successful series in Telemundo’s history stars Kate del Castillo who returns to claim her throne as Teresa Mendoza.
In preparation for this highly awaited comeback, the network is airing a “Special Edition Season 1” beginning Monday, March 4th at 10pm/9c, which will also be available with English subtitles across all platforms including Telemundo App, VOD and Telemundo.com.
Shot on location in eight countries, the return of “La Reina del Sur” is set eight years after powerful drug trafficker Teresa Mendoza disappeared into the U.S. Federal Witness Protection Program for bringing down Mexican presidential candidate Epifanio Vargas. Hers is now a life of total anonymity as “Maria Dantes,” who is peacefully raising her daughter Sofia in the Tuscan village of Massa Marittima in Italy. However, her life takes an unexpected turn, and she will do the impossible to reclaim her throne as La Reina del Sur.
