    Its title is El César, after one of his many nicknames (The Caesar of Boxing; the other well known ones being El Gran Campeón/The Great Champ and El León de Culiacán/the Lion of Culiacán). It will cover his entire life and career over 26 episodes. Pretty ambitious.

    Telemundo will carry this in the US.

    (hopefully available with English subtitles/closed-captioning)

    Weird yeah that is the same one it appears.

    All indications from Azteca's Twitter (and JCC's own) are that it premieres next month, yet imdb and Wikipedia both list it as having aired in full this past fall. I'm so confused.

    Feh! tl, ww. And I can't imagine miniseries produced by Telemundo will be worth watching, the ones on the big 4 usually aren't.

    Telemundo didn't produce it, neither did Azteca. They're just carrying it. This actually is a Disney production and they reportedly put a sizable budget in (for a TV bio), and it had the involvement of JC himself.

    There are promotional videos on YouTube. It looks like Scarface, but with Chavez instead of Tony Montana.
