Can you believe it's been 14 years since Los protegidos first aired?! (14 years, 9 months, 24 days to be exact.)
Why in the world did Los protegidos end?
When Los protegidos came to an end after 3 years in June 2012, million viewers tuned in to say goodbye to Sandra (Ana Fernández), Jimena (Angie Cepeda), Mario (Antonio Garrido) and Ángel (Luis Fernández). And since then, they have been itching for a reunion.
Would a Los protegidos reunion disappoint people?
Los protegidos aired from 2010-2012 and is considered one of the most influential TV shows ever on pop culture. Although no original episodes have been shot since, it has remained a regular feature on many station's schedules. But Fernández said she's not sure if Los protegidos would work today. “I don't want to see old Sandra,” she told a journalist (Fernández turned 34 in November). “Everyone’s going to have different vision of what the character is like, so to have that materialize is going to disappoint most people,” she added.
Still hoping for a Los protegidos movie?
In a recent interview, Marta Torné (who played Julia) said she can't imagine a Los protegidos reunion hitting the big screen. “I'd rather people go, ‘Oh, please! Please!’ than ‘I can't believe you did that. It was horrible.’”
Co-star Mario Marzo (who played Lucas) has also previously explained, “It would be terrible to do something and have it not be good,”. “It was so terrific ... If we did a Los protegidos movie and it sucked, then it would, you know, blemish it.”
On the subject of whether there could be a Los protegidos film, Luis Fernández stated : “I think it's a bit of a case of ‘the book is better than the movie’.”
What about a Los protegidos reboot?
Recasting Los protegidos for a modern reboot. Hollywood is known for remaking remakes of films or tv series and the studios might think it would be great to bring the story back with a new set of characters.
Be it in the form of a Los protegidos reunion, a Los protegidos movie, or a Los protegidos reboot, if you had to start filming today, who would you cast in what role?
