Ana Bond, SVP and MD of International Production in Latin America and US Hispanic for SPT commented, “Yo No Soy Mendozawill feature the relatable humor and poignant drama viewers have come to expect from Fernando Gaitán. It is a great pleasure to be able to honor his memory by continuing forth with this special project.”
