Metástasis

After several days of speculation fueled by Univision,[2] on March 13, 2013, Sony confirmed that it would be making a Spanish-language remake of Breaking Bad.[3]

Sony Entertainment Television (Latin America) worked with Colombian producer Teleset on the series, which is set in Bogotá, Colombia, and its surroundings[1] and consists of 62 50-minute-long episodes. The directors are Andy Baiz and Andrés Biermann.[4]

The series stars Diego Trujillo as Walter Blanco (Walter White) and Roberto Urbina as José Miguel Rosas (Jesse Pinkman), alongside Sandra Reyes as Cielo Blanco (Skyler White) and Julián Arango as Henry Navarro (Hank Schrader).[3][5] The equivalent of Saul Goodman is named Saúl Bueno.[6] Mexican actor Damián Alcázar played the show's equivalent of Tuco Salamanca.[1]

As with many Latin American dramas, Metástasis is stripped in a telenovela format in which all of the episodes are aired daily over the course of less than a year.

• In the United States, the series is being transmitted by UniMás, a Univisión channel
• In Colombia, Caracol Television broadcast the series.
• In Mexico, Televisa's Channel 5 broadcasts the series Monday through Friday at midnight.[7]

In addition to local broadcasts, the Fox Latin America satellite channel will transmit the series across Latin America.[8]
