Synopsis of "Eva Luna," upcoming on Univision
Do we have any willing volunteers to recap for this novela?
Eva González travels to california with her sister and father. A driver causes an accident on the highway and kills Ismael, the girls father. The wounded Eva swears vengeance against the stranger. Later Eva meets Daniel - and Leonardo, who makes a bet with his friend that he can seduce her. Leonardo takes Eva to his house and gives her a job taking care of his sick father. Eva is unaware that the car that killed her father beloned to Daniel, though the driver was Leonardo. Despite the interference of many people who don't want to see them together, Daniel and Eva fall in love and decide to marry. But Leonardo realizes it was he who had killed Eva's father and tells the girl that the driver she wishes revenge on is her fiance.

Hope you get a great team for this though, Melinama. Looks like another sizzler.
"Eva Luna," the first Univision Studios production, is a collaboration with Venivision. It's described as a modern love story built around a successful female advertising executive. The telenovela stars Guy Ecker and Blanca Soto.
The show is one of the network's original offerings for next season, which includes four other telenovelas..."
I'm trying to find out if it's filmed in Miami or L.A. Venevision has filmed in Miami previously.
Someone has said it is a remake of Miamivela, "Aguamarina":
"On the heels of two tragedies - a hurricane which destroys her home and drives her family to the bustling city of Miami and the untimely death of her father there - Marina and her younger sister, Celeste, are left alone and impoverished in a strange city. Illiterate and a bit clumsy, Marina finds it nearly impossible to find a job and ends up working as a lowly maid in the house of the wealthy Calatraves family, who run a lucrative modeling agency. Marina's beauty catches the attention of the son of the house, Ricardo, and his friend, Diego, two handsome playboys who promptly lay bets on who will seduce her first. For Diego, who is engaged to Ricardo's high-fashion model sister, Verona, it's just another game. But a passionate kiss with Marina one steamy night affects him more than he thought possible and Diego finds himself falling in love. Unfortunately, the cunning Ricardo has no intention of losing their bet."

Leonardo Padron (original idea)

and filmed in SoCal, as a remake of Aguamarina; but other sources say Miami.
Trying to find a more complete cast list.
I could be wrong, though as they speak awfully fast on Cristina!!

It sounds interesting and I'm keen to see Guy Ecker. I've never seen him in anything and I keep hearing what a bit star he is. Also, being the first Univision production, as well as being an American production, piques my interest!
Bah, I don't want them to shoot in Miami! I was hoping for L.A. since I'm a native of L.A.
"...Someone has said it is a remake of Miamivela, 'Aguamarina.'"
This was in response to novelera's comment about what it was based on.
I watched the promo, and there is stock footage of downtown L.A. But the other exterior shots look like Miami to me.
The story may ostensibly take place in L.A., but be filmed in Miami. (Like the opposite of CSI: Miami.)
In a little blurb about Blanca Soto in November's "People en Español", it says clearly that the script has nothing whatever to do with Isabel Allende's novel of the same title:
"Y añade sobre el guión de esta trama que, ojo, no tiene nada que ver con el libro de la escritora Isabel Allende."
also where can i buy this nolva
