The news arrives following a big premiere week for the continuation series breaking a new record for the largest global viewership for a Latin American title in the streamer’s history. It is now also the most-watched series or movie on Prime Video in Colombia.
Betty, La Fea, the Story Continues tells the story of Beatriz Pinzón Solano 20 years after the conclusion of the original show. While an empowered and wiser Betty works hard on rebuilding her relationship with her teenage daughter Mila, her relationship with Armando begins to deteriorate, making her question if she made the right decision 20 years ago.
Ana María Orozco reprises her role of Betty alongside Jorge Enrique Abello as Armando Mendoza Sáenz. Julián Arango, Natalia Ramírez, Lorna Cepeda, Julio Cesar Herrera, Luces Velásquez, Marcela Posada, Mario Duarte, Ricardo Vélez, Alberto León Jaramillo, and Estefania Gómez also reprise their roles from the original.
“The phenomenal success of Betty, La Fea, the Story Continues underscores Prime Video’s commitment to sharing iconic local stories of exceptional quality from the region that deeply resonate with our customers around the world,” Paulo Koelle, Head of Prime Video Latin America, shared in a release. “Prime Video’s strategy in Latin America has been to focus on what truly matters, taking calculated risks to bring our customers all the content they crave in one destination, and we can’t wait to bring Betty back for another season.”
The original Betty, La Fea was an undeniable success that led to various versions such as Ugly Betty in the United States, La Fea Más Bella in Mexico, Yo Soy Bea in Spain or, more recently, Betty in NY.
Betty, La Fea, the Story Continues season 1 is available to stream on Prime Video.
