The first banner for William Levy's "La Tempestad" has been revealed on Facebook.
The official Facebook page posted a banner with William Levy, Ximena Navarrete and Ivan Sanchez in the center. In the background there is a boat that will be important to the development of the series. On the left side the title is shown with the release date. The banner also revealed Levy's hidden tattoo that he got for the series. The tattoo is in left side of his chest and represents a compass.
The page also revealed TV spots that show some scenes with Navarrete and Levy. The spots open with a storm followed by clips of Levy and his co-star.
Levy was recently revealed that he would star in a new film entitled "Salsa" with Jada Pinkett Smith. He also finished shooting two films for Lionsgate: "Addicted" and "Single Mom's Club." Levy has also made headlines when he was caught resting after months of shooting and stated that he was tired of the long hours. He took a break from the series to film a new commercial for Pepsi in which he played six different characters.
Throughout production of "La Tempestad" journalists followed production and reported that he and his co-star Navarrete were criticized for taking 16 hours on a kissing scene and were asked to take acting classes because they had no chemistry. The production team also criticized Levy for his hard-to-understand Cuban accent obtained after working in America.
"La Tempestad" started shooting on Wednesday, March 6th in Veracruz. Production recently announced that Christina Aguilera and Alejandro Fernandez would record the theme song. It also stars Laura Carmine, Jessica Coch, Diana Bracho, Cesar Evora, Alfonso Herrera, Latin Lover and Luis Manuel Avila. The series is based on the Colombian telenovela "La Tormenta" and is set to air in Mexico on May 13, 2013 on El Canal de la Estrellas.
