Pantaya announced the completion of production for its newest original series, "Líos de Familia," in the Dominican Republic alongside its partner, Caribbean Films.  The series will be released in the U.S. and Puerto Rico on Pantaya in the first quarter of 2022. “Pantaya’s vision and long-term commitment to Latin American Film is unparalleled in the industry. They understand the nuances of the U.S. Hispanic market and that is clearly reflected in the depth and diversity of their library and originals. We are proud to partner with the Pantaya team again on this occasion,” commented Gregory Quinn, Managing Partner of Caribbean Films.

“Líos de Familia” is executive produced by James McNamara and Anjanette Delgado from Pantaya, and Gregory Quinn and Zumaya Cordero at Caribbean Films. The series, directed by Frank Perozo,  marks the companies’ first co-production alongside José Enrique Pintor, who serves as co-director, and co-wrote the comedic script with Juan Tejeda, while Kendy Yanoreth serves as a General Producer for the show.

The talented Caribbean cast of “Líos de Familia” includes Irving Alberti, Kenny Grullón, Marta González, Ana María Arias, Anderson Humor, Candy Flow, Rosmery Herrand, Ulda Capell, Brea Frank, Anyelina Sánchez, Ramcelis De Jesús, Luis Bryan Mesa, recording artist Nino Freestyle, with special guests Jorge Pabón “Molusco” and Television personality Francisca Lachapel.

The comedy showcases a group of residents of a colorful middle-class building in Santo Domingo and how they cope with politician Esteban  and his wife Cristina, who somehow owns two apartments in Building 28. A bank worker  raising his teenage son Josué while pining for his neighbor Maritza is introduced, as well as a hairdresser who works out of home and lives with her own teen daughter Shanty and mom Yaya . Music producer Rodo, contributed much of the tracks, as well as a rapper called Milloneta , and “The Girls," who make a living via web cam subscriptions, streaming their lives from their 4th-floor apartment. 

“Pantaya has been very successful attracting the large and growing Caribbean audience in the U.S. specifically with movies from Caribbean Films such as Que León, Colao, No Es Lo Que Parece and many others. The logical next step in our relationship was to create an original premium series which we are confident will become a must-watch for the United States Dominican and Puerto Rican audiences,” commented Paul Presburger, CEO of Pantaya. "Collaborating with Gregory Quinn and Zumaya Cordero from Caribbean Films and the magnificent cast that is part of this series, including the Dominican Kings of Comedy Raymond and Miguel, is just the first step," he concluded.
