Development Alert: The Casillas Dynasty, Lord Of The Skies Spinoff Announced For Telemundo Alongside Woman Of Steel Reboot Titled Persecuted
Together, We provide our audience with the series of most successful and longest-running fiction of the Hispanic television. We wish Rafael the better in your future projects and we hope have opportunities to collaborate with him again," the network then commented. But Amaya's departure from The Lord of the heavens does not imply the end of the successful superseries who for more than 10 years starred in the renowned Mexican actor.
Telemundo announced this Thursday that the legendary saga continues with a new generation, La Dinastía Casillas (The Casillas Dynasty, provisional title).
In the continuation of this successful franchise "Rutila (Carmen Aub), Ismael (Iván Arana) and The Casillas heirs are ready to demonstrate that the family legacy runs through their veins. But what is a dynasty without challenges? His father's enemies lurk, seeking revenge and power, but the Casillas do not they retreat from any threat," the chain. "In The Casillas dynasty, the adrenaline reaches new heights as the action, intrigue and passion intertwine."
Persecuted (Persecuda, provisional title) is another of the fictions prepared by the chain. "In persecuted, the seemingly perfect life of Gloria Guzmán becomes a nightmare when hitmen invade their wedding and kill to her fiancé and father of her little son, the PGR commander Juan José Fierro. Abandoned by her family as a result of scandal, Gloria becomes the target of the media and the government for their activities dirty and covert. Gloria loses everything loves and ventures into the dark underworld of money laundering to save his son. Determined to conquer the crime bosses in charge, must use his most dangerous weapons (his cunning and intelligence) to recover his life", progress was made on its plot.
Development Alert (Rumour): Tyler Perry's Young Dylan Reportedly Cancelled On Nickelodeon, Could It Be Shipped Elsewhere?
It followed an aspiring hip-hop artist whose mother doesn't come home one day, his grandmother Viola moves him in with his uncle Myles and aunt Yasmine to have parental figures in his life. His style clashes with the styles of Myles' family.
Since its inception, Tyler Perry's Young Dylan managed to cross through 4 seasons with 72 episodes having being filmed. There were even rumours of a season 5 making it one of the longest running live-action shows alongside Henry Danger.
But Nickelodeon apparently removed the show from their website and although this is not concrete evidence of cancellation. The network has been known for doing their non-SpongeBob shows dirty as seen with revivals of Blue's Clues and Rugrats.
If our hunch proves to be correct, this would make The Really Loud House the only live-action from the network. From the looks of it, we wouldn't be surprised if that went away as well considering Paramount+ cut a majority of their kids slate with some on rival platforms.
Spice TV: Could Zee Family And Star Select Also Exit Openview's Ultraview Or Could A Possible Restructure Be Underway?
Of course, what eMedia Investments failed to mention was that FUSE would also exit the platform as they form part of a new joint venture on eVOD, OUTtv Proud. Thus concluding eMedia's short run in the pay-tv world or at least for Ultraview's EDGE bouquet.
Ultraview only launched a year ago and already it is being dismantled with the Indian channels serving as the remainder.
As some readers are aware, Ultraview has been met with heavy criticism for its price rates and content offering leading some to speculate its possible demise. Taking to account, load shedding and other economic factors like competition (e.g. DStv).
Ultraview is anticipated to have attracted 3/4 digit number cause again a lot had happened in 2023. With load shedding consumers had to cutback on expenses and that included DStv and also with Netflix onboard - Ultraview never stood a stance.
Of course, from what consumer feedback seemed to hint at most of that traction came from Spice TV's Zee Family and Star Select. This is due to the existing offering already viewed on Star Life and Zee One, sister channels to the mentioned offering.
Another having to with the timeslot as EDGE was opened between 9pm to 11pm where consumption is low.
It's likely that eMedia Investments could be awaiting on contracts to reach their duration and depart from the pay-tv world. In the last months, they haven't done much marketing for these brands and honestly it could lead up to them scrapping Ultraview.
Another could be a possible restructuring to the Ultraview platform which would see Spice TV form part of an expansive lineup of channels. Problem with OUTtv is that not everyone is accustomed to its target audience so rather unify it with eVOD.
As for the expanded lineup, one theory would be curating eVOD into a standalone channel similar to M-Net's 1Max. It would carry eVOD originals while also supplying other content and who knows maybe the offering could be divided into multiple channels.
