Showrunner and creator extraordinaire Gloria Calderón Kellett’s latest series, With Love is set to premiere Dec. 17. Following the success of her award-winning One Day At A Time starring Rita Moreno, Justina Machado and Todd Grinnell, Calderón Kellet once again proves why she is considered one of Hollywood’s most successful TV producers.
With Love’s series premiere of Nochebuena introduces us to the Diaz family—Diaz siblings, Lily (Emeraude Toubia) and Jorge Jr. (Mark Indelicato), who are on a mission to find love and purpose. Their parents stars Benito Martinez and Constance Marie– oh the joy of life with an all American-Latino familia!
Another recurring actor who caught our attention is Birdie Silverstein, who portrays Charlie and happens to be the daughter of Busy Phillipps. Birdie is proving to be quite a delightful gift and is making a splash and Hollywood is paying attention.
Of course, being the outspoken and gregarious Latino family, what could go wrong during the stress-heightened days leading to the Christmas holidays? Everything, that’s what!
The Diaz family has gathered for their annual Christmas Eve gathering known as Nochebuena. The family comes together not just bearing gifts but also with a truck load of personal problems and issues they are currently dealing with.
With Love is a groundbreaking television production in that it has cast one of this generation’s most influential transgender woman, Isis King, who portrays Sol Delgado. The rest of the cast in the first five episodes includes Vincent Rodriguez III (I Heart Arlo, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend), Todd Grinnell (Hollywoodland, One Day At A Time), Rome Flynn (How to Get Away with Murder, A Madea Family Funeral), Andre Royo (Hand Of God), Desmond Chiam (The Falcon and the Winter Soldier) and Calderón Kellett herself as Gladys Delgado.
Bring on the mix bag of tamales! Feliz Navidad! Watch on Prime Video.
