Eva Longoria and Unbelievable Entertainment are teaming up with Disney
Their plane is to develop a series on a book that was inspired by Cuban Mythology. The series is based on Carlos Hernandez’s book called ‘Sal & Gabi Break the Universe’. Hernandez said, “The Cuban-American experience is an interesting one in the United States, because of all the Latinx groups, the Cuban experience is the most privileged. There was a time right up until the end of the Obama administration when, if you were coming from the island of Cuba and you put one foot on American soil, you were invited into the country.” He continued, ‘That created a way for Cuban immigrants to gain a foothold unavailable to most other groups. Miami, where this is set, is a place where they’ve had agency and opportunity and the ability to start businesses. It’s almost like an alternate reality Cuba if it hadn’t been devastated by economic and political policy over the years. It’s basically the Cuban identity in two parallel universes, which feeds into the multiversal aspect of this series.” ‘Sal & Gabi Break the Universe’ is still in development.
