Nearly a year after releasing the first teaser, Netflix has unveiled a new trailer and the premiere date for its upcoming series about Tejano music icon Selena Quintanilla. The six-part drama, titled Selena: The Series, will debut on December 4.
The black-and-white trailer features Christian Serratos, known for her role in The Walking Dead, as the beloved singer who was tragically killed in 1995. Set to Selena's hit Como La Flor, the brief video shows glimpses of Serratos in character, including her beaded fringe boots and silhouette on stage, interspersed with shots of cheering fans.
According to Netflix, the series is a coming-of-age story that chronicles Selena's rise to fame and the life-changing choices facing her and her family as she navigates fame and the music business. The cast includes Ricardo Chavira as her father Abraham Quintanilla, Seidy López as her mother Marcella, Gabriel Chavarria as her brother A.B., and Noemi Gonzalez as her sister Suzette.
Selena's real-life sister and former bandmate, Suzette Quintanilla, is producing the series through Campanario Entertainment. The show will also feature young actress Madison Taylor Baez portraying a young Selena.
