Telemundo 'Tierra de Reyes' Telenovela Episode 1 Recap: Cast Members Share Spoilers, What to Expect
Warning: Spoilers below.
"Tierra de Reyes" ("Land of Kings") is Telemundo's latest telenovela, and it revolves around three women and three men on a ranch in Houston, Texas.
The show stars Ana Lorena Sanchez, Scarlet Gruber, Kimberly Dos Ramos, Aaron Diaz, Christian de la Campa and Gonzalo Garcia Vivanco, and some of these cast members recently sat down with MezcalTV to discuss their characters and what fans can expect.
"I portray Arturo Gallardo, who is the oldest brother of four," Diaz said. "They are orphans and he, as the oldest brother, is in charge of the family."
One of Arturo's siblings eventually dies, so he and his brothers swear they will seek revenge on the family who killed her.
Vivanco, who plays Flavio Gallardo, said that his character and his character's brothers eventually arrive at the Del Junco farm, where they try to seek justice for their sister's death.
"But they come across a wall, which is these three beautiful women," Vivanco said. "I play Flavio. I am the middle brother out of the three. He's the most calculating and the coldest out of the three brothers."
Diaz added that the three women, who are Flavio's sisters, flirt with the brothers, and they completely change the course of the story.
Gruber adds that her character is very similar to Vivanco's.
"Andrea is a woman with a very strong character," Gruber said about her role. "She is extremely rigid, cold and very intelligent."
Sanchez plays Sofia del Junco, the oldest of the three sisters and the veterinarian for the ranch. She is married to Leonardo Montalvo, but she isn't happy. Working with animals is her escape.
The youngest sister is portrayed by Dos Ramos. She described her character as a dreamer and someone who is faithful.
Rios, who plays Leonardo, said his character is looking to gain a better name and family.
"On his journey, he tries to do things that maybe a viewer won't think is right, but for me, they are totally valid," he said.
On the first episode of "Tierra de Reyes," viewers learned that Leonardo is trying to pass as a good man but is also ambitious and wants to improve his own name, so he steals from and kills his father-in-law, Ignacio. Leonardo discovers that Ignacio knows who he truly is.
Brothers Arturo, Flavio and Samuel work in construction, which allows them to go to school as well.
