Eiza González is mourning the loss of Nicandro Díaz, a TelevisaUnivision producer who gave the 3 Body Problem star an opportunity early on in her acting career.
“I am devastated with the news about Nicandro,” González posted on X, the social media platform formerly known as Twitter. “You are light, I always spent hours laughing with you. My family and I love you very much and we are eternally grateful.”
She continued, “You changed the course of my life and I will always be indebted to you. My deepest condolences to your beautiful family. I adore you Nicandro, we will always miss you. Your favorite lobuki.”
González starred in the telenovela Amores Verdaderos back in 2012, which Díaz produced for TelevisaUnivision. The actress accompanied her X post with a photo alongside Díaz and her telenovela co-stars like Sebastián Rulli, Erika Buenfil and Eduardo Yáñez.

In a break from the norm of this year’s upfronts week, TelevisaUnivision’s presentation Tuesday morning at Pier 36 in the Lower East Side of Manhattan had no picketing writers outside; no protesters; and no dramatic executive or talent departures.
It was perhaps the only upfront of the week to be business as usual, with the WGA strike not impacting the company (which produces most of its Spanish-language programming in Mexico and Colombia), and a lack of corporate drama and intrigue.
In its place was a show of confidence, as executives touted a theme of “Young America,” noting that with the demographic changes in the country, much of that growth will come from Hispanics.
“We will be 100 percent of the 18 to 34 year old growth over the next five years, that’s what clients are leaning into,” TelevisaUnivision ad sales chief Donna Speciale told The Hollywood Reporter in an interview ahead of its upfront presentation.

TelevisaUnivision has sealed a deal with CBS and the NFL to carry Spanish-language broadcasts of Super Bowl Lviii next February.
The news was one of several announcements made Tuesday by the Hispanic media giant at its upfronts presentation at New York’s Pier 36, the complex along the East River known as Basketball City.
Vix, the streaming service launched in 2022 by TelevisaUnivision has now passed 30 million monthly active users, the company said. After initially coming to market with two tiers — one free and ad-supported and another pay tier branded Vix+ — the services combined into a streamlined, Vix-branded outlet earlier this year.
At Vix, the series Circo Gomez is now in development. The show, about a dysfunctional family running a shoddy traveling circus, derives from a first-look deal with Eugenio Derbez. In 2024, the streaming service will also debut El Extraño Retorno de Diana Salazar, a telenovela adaptation starring Angelique Boyer and Sebastian Rulli.

TV’s Spanish-language Univision network will broadcast Super Bowl Lvii next year, adding a new entrant to the usual coterie of English-language outlets that show the game.
The deal was struck in partnership with the NFL and CBS Sports, which has the rights to show the game in English.
The details were released as part of TelevisaUnivision’s annual “upfront” presentation, when U.S. networks try to sell the bulk of their commercial programming ahead of their next programming cycle.
The company also disclosed that its ViX streaming outlet has more than 30 million monthly active users globally, with Pierluigi Gazzolo, the CEO of ViX noting that ” 80% of consumption on Vix is content no one else has and, importantly, 63% of users on ViX are incremental to the massive audience we serve on linear, which means greater cross-platform reach for all of you.”
