Queen of the South
La Reina del Sur with Kate del Castillo was a huge hit on Telemundo a few years back and now we have Queen of the South, a new series on the USA Network. And our friend Dave Rodriguez has directed two episodes.
Director Dave Rodriguez
Based on the best-selling book La Reina Del Sur by Arturo Pérez-Reverte, Queen of the South tells the powerful story of Teresa Mendoza (Alice Braga). When her drug-dealing boyfriend is unexpectedly murdered in Mexico, Teresa is forced to go on the run and seek refuge in America, where she teams with an unlikely figure from her past to bring down the leader of the very drug trafficking ring that has her on the run. In the process, she learns the tools of the trade and strategically positions herself to become the leader of the Cartel.
Also starring Hemky Madera, Justina Machado, Rafael Amaya, Veronica Falcón, and Annabelle Jones.
Queen of the South series is 13-episode and a premiere date has not yet been set.
