Last week, Eugenio Derbez revealed on Instagram that he was working on a new task by sparking excitement with a mysterious message. In the image shared by the comedy actor, you can see what he appears to be on a film set, and in front of him is a man sitting in the iconic costume of El chavo del ocho.
Without giving details about the project, the public began to speculate that it was a bio series released a few months ago by Roberto Gomez Bolanos Cesspirito (Grupo Chespirito), a film released by his son, producer Roberto Gomez Fernández, who sells various products with images of actors and characters.
In that post, despite the fact that the actor of No Returns Are Accepted did not reveal the identity of the person who was under the dressing room, he again shared a video in which he spoke more because he blurred his face and now he can distinguish who was standing. Under the popular character of La Vecindade.
In a short clip re-recorded on the set of the film, actor Juan Frese appeared in front of the frame and the blue screen and received instructions from the production staff that could become a bio series that tells the life and career of a fellow producer and playwright throughout Latin America.
“Almost... Be on the lookout. The creators of “Ludovico P. Luche” and “Eloy Gamenó” did not captivate the aforementioned actor and wrote in a publication that has reached 737,000 likes so far.
Immediately, some of his followers recognized actors who participated in the creation of comics on Televisa, such as The Privilege of Sending, Renta Congelada and This Story Sounds Like Me. At the same time, many highlighted the physical similarity of the comedy actor with the deceased in Quintana Roo Cancun in 2014.
Some reactions caused confusion, such as the one on the official account of Chespirito. “You have already exhibited us!” That is why some have assumed that it was a project approved by Roberto Gómez Fernández that deals with little-known aspects of the actor's life.
For example: “It looks similar”, “Let's see if he spoils the character of that man without using a double meaning”, “The man comes from a force that must feel very lucky to fulfill the role. ”, “Wow, that recognizable outfit excites me and I like it”, “Is Juan Frese? That wey doesn't even laugh”, “Do you think it has nothing to do with the bio series?” , “My whole heart from a single project” are some of the 400+ comments that respond to Derbez's post.
For fans and followers of Cespirito, news can be a source of joy, but without a doubt it will not be the case for Lalo España, an actor who has been bringing Roberto Gomez Volanos to life on screen for more than a year.
The actor of Vecinos recorded a video cast featuring some of the famous characters of the filmmaker. After some time, Spain confirmed that the production of the bio series contacted him to hold a face-to-face audition and even received a “call back”.
Spain has commented on several occasions that Gómez Bolaños fills him with enthusiasm due to his great admiration for being able to embody him, but the recent images shared by Eugenio Derbez could mean that the actor Juan Frese was finally the one who took on the role.
It is worth mentioning that until now there has been no official statement from Grupo Chespirito, nor are the actors known who will give life to characters such as Florinda Meza, Ruben Aguirre, Edgar Vivar, Maria Antoineta de las Nieves.
On the other hand, the series will start recording from April, so the date did not coincide with the image published by Derbez.
