El Clon (The Clone) is a working title of a Spanish-language telenovela produced by the United States-based television network Telemundo and TV Globo.[1] It is based on O Clone, a Brazilian series that originally aired on Telemundo in 2002.[2] This limited run melodrama, which stars Christian Meier[3], deals with topic such as drug trafficking, cloning and Islam.[4]
This melodrama features a love triangle featuring Lucas, a handsome hero challenging his clone for the love of an enticing, exotic woman. Lucas is young when he falls for a young Arab girl named Jade. She is caught between modern values and her Islamic upbringing. They separate and two decades pass. Then a strange turn of luck brings the pair together. Then Jade meets the clone, who is just like Lucas, but twenty years younger. She must choose between the man she loved and the memory she cherishes.
The remake is expected to debut in 2009. It will be filmed in Colombia, with some scenes shot on location in the Middle East,[5] although the main setting is Los Angeles.[6] It includes several members of the original production team, including screenwriter Glória Perez and director Jayme Monjardim.[7]
Telemundo will likely air the serial from Monday to Friday over about 26 weeks. As with most of its other soap operas, the network will broadcast English subtitles as closed captions on CC3. As part of the production deal, TV Globo agreed to embargo distribution of the original Portuguese version for five years.
