There’s a Spanish-language series adaptation of Laura Esquivel’s Like Water for Chocolate, the novel where a woman during the Mexican Revolution channels her passion and fears into the food that she bakes.
Here’s the official synopsis:
Tita de la Garza and Pedro Múzquiz are two souls deeply in love, yet unable to be together due to entrenched family customs. The protagonists navigate a world of magical realism and rich flavors as Tita struggles between the destiny imposed on her by her family and her fight for love. Along the way, the audience will witness her greatest refuge: the kitchen. For Tita, her magical connection to cooking becomes an active resistance against oppression, allowing her to channel her deepest desires and passions into her recipes, transforming those who taste them.
The series was written by Francisco Javier Royo Fernández, María Jaén, and Jimena Gallardo, and has Salma Hayek Pinault as one of its executive producers. It stars Irene Azuela as Mamá Elena and Azul Guaita as Tita. Additional cast members include Ana Valeria Becerril as Rosaura, Tita’s sister and rival in love; Andrea Chaparro as Gertrudis, another sister of Tita’s; Andrés Baida as Pedro, the object of both Tita and Rosaura’s affections; Ángeles Cruz as Nacha, Tita’s cook and mentor; Mauricio García Lozano as Don Pedro Múzquiz; Ari Brickman as Don Felipe Múzquiz; and Louis David Horné as Juan Alejandrez.
Like Water for Chocolate premieres on Max on November 3, 2024, with additional episodes dropping on subsequent Sundays.
