Netflix Announces New Date for ‘Selena: The Series’ Part 2
After an eventful and loved first season, the second part of Selena: The Series is scheduled to launch on May 14 on Netflix.
Christian Serratos plays the beloved Tejano music singer, Selena Quintanilla, in her life story as she grew in popularity and made it to the top until her tragic, unfortunate death.
“I’ve been listening to her [Selena] since I was way below single digits,” Serratos told People. “I’ve always looked up to and really admired her, but I never thought I would have the opportunity to play her. This woman [Selena] was a pioneer. She was way before her time.”
“Transitioning into mainstream pop music was not easy for a Mexican woman in the ’80s, but she did it gracefully and with such strength,” Serratos told People. “It’s something that I really look up to. I wanted to portray her spirit above anything,” she added. “That’s why I love her. I think that’s why we all love her.”
