MasterChef Latino sets out to find the best amateur cook whose talent and passion could transform his/her life. Many aspiring chefs will audition before the MasterChef Latino judges, but only a few will make it to boot-camp. There, their culinary skills will be pushed to the limit as only half will be awarded a place in the MasterChef Latino kitchen, where the competition really heats up.
El Ganador, which will star Nicky Jam and is set to launch in the U.S. on Telemundo, is produced by Endemol Shine Latino and Mexico City-based production company Boomdog. El Ganador will tell the life story of award-winning Nicky Jam, a singer-songwriter, who has become a worldwide music phenomenon.
From his humble and troubled start in Boston, to his downfall on the streets, to becoming the king of one of the most popular musical genres, this is not only the life of Nicky Jam, but the history of reggaeton itself. Nicky Jam has since received some of the most prestigious awards in the music industry, sold out stadiums, earned the admiration of his colleagues and is now the greatest exponent of urban music.
El Ganador will be directed by award-winning Jessy Terrero, while Juan Diego Medina of La Industria Inc. and Sergio Pizzolante of C&T Mobs, will serve as executive producers. Casting is currently underway and production is slated to start later this year.
Love Clicks 24/7 takes the reality genre to a whole new level for Generation M. Love Clicks 24/7 is a bilingual reality show for the streaming age where three attractive single men will compete in their search for true love. But while the men think they have the upper hand in this search, the tables will turn and the women actually have their pick. However, in the end it is the audience who decides if this couple really clicks and without their votes, even Cupid is left powerless.
