TelevisaUnivision Inc., the world’s leading Spanish-language content and media company announced that production began in Mexico City on “Quiero Tu Vida” (I Want Your Life), an exclusive romantic fantasy feature for ViX+, the new premium Spanish-language SVOD tier that the streaming platform will launch in the second half of 2022.
This is the first project under TelevisaUnivision’s recently announced first-look deal with Salma Hayek Pinault’s Ventanarosa Productions to produce Spanish-language feature films exclusively for ViX+.
“Quiero Tu Vida” is a romantic fantasy feature about Nico, a young soccer player whose promising career comes to a sudden end when he suffers a devastating injury on the field. Eight years later, Nico turns into a bitter man who keeps fantasizing about what his life could have been. When the universe magically gives him an opportunity to live the life he always dreamed of, Nico learns that fame and glory can be deceitful and sometimes happiness comes in the most unexpected ways.
Produced by Salma Hayek Pinault and José Tamez under their Ventanarosa banner along with Jorge Garcia Castro, “Quiero Tu Vida” is directed by Jorge Colón (Sin Ella and Tired of Kissing Frogs) based on a script by Tamez and Garcia Castro. The ViX+ Original Film will star Erick Elías (Tormenta en el Paraíso and El Hotel de los Secretos), Zuria Vega (Que te Perdone Dios and Mi Marido Tiene Familia), Bárbara de Regil (El Torito and Rosario Tijeras), Jesús Zavala (La Boda de Valentina and Cómplices) and Natalia Téllez (Logout and Te Acuerdas de Mí).
