Univision will debut series about "El Chapo"

Hispanic media company Univision announced today that it will present a series about Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán by the end of the year.

The series will present an "unauthorized" view of the life of the notorious drug dealer, and will be written by former Colombian drug dealer Andrés López López, reported the company in a press release.

Univision added that "Joaquín 'Chapo' Guzmán: El Barón de la Droga" (Joaquín "Chapo" Guzmán: The drug baron) will air on the UniMás channel, but so far there are no reports on the cast.
