(CNN Spanish) - Turner Latin America and The Mediapro Studio announced through a press release the beginning of filming in March of the new series “Las Bravas FC”, set around a women's football team and that the Mexican actor Alfonso Herrera will be part of the cast of this series.
Although there is not much information, the only thing we know through the information that TNT released is that “Las Bravas FC” is based on an idea by Enrique Pérez Vergara, “Flipy” (Noobees, Pepe Beach Bar, Olmos and Robles ), it is planned to be released in 2020 and will be composed of eight episodes.
About the plot
The central story of “Las Bravas FC” revolves around a modest women's soccer team from a small Mexican town where stories of overcoming, values of teamwork and the roots of its protagonists will be shown as a determinant in their relationships.
The team's dream is to win the regional women's soccer championship. But getting it will not be easy. They will need the support of a professional coach, work that will fall to the former elite player, Roberto Casas, played by Alfonso Herrera. Forced to leave the field because of a heart condition and with a certain air of fallen idol, Casas will accept work because of a bet, which will force him to overcome his prejudices because he does not consider women's football a sport.
"Hence the double challenge of overcoming the series, that of the players to conquer their dream and that of Velarde to adapt to their new reality, return to their origins and face the new challenge that lies ahead."
