Univision and Nuyorican productions announce an all-star cast for the Jennifer Lopez produced dramatic mini-series "Como Ama Una Mujer" - Jennifer Lopez's first 1st Spanish-Language TV Project. The five-part dramatic mini-series will debut on the Univision Television Network this fall.
The five episodes will be released on a 2-Disc DVD set on December 18 2008.
An original production filmed in Mexico, "Como Ama Una Mujer" (How a Woman Loves) is inspired by the lyrics of Jennifer's first Spanish-language album of the same name released earlier this year. At the end of each episode, Jennifer herself will perform the theme song that inspired that episode. The five part mini-series tells the story of a woman's journey to find her true soul-mate, but with her glamorous life and professional success come heartbreak and betrayals that threaten to break her spirit.
Jennifer Lopez expressed: "We are very excited to present this project with Univision and proud to share one of our original series with the Hispanic community."
In keeping with the high-profile nature of the eagerly awaited production, "Como Ama Una Mujer" will feature some of Spanish-language television and motion pictures' biggest stars.
