The upcoming series adaptation of “The Chicken Sisters” at Hallmark has added Ektor Rivera to its cast, PvNew has learned exclusively.
PvNew exclusively reported in May that Hallmark had picked up the series, which is based on the KJ Dell’Antonia novel of the same name. Rivera joins previously announced cast members Schuyler Fisk, Genevieve Angelson, Lea Thompson and Wendie Malick. The series is currently in production and is slated to air later this year. Rivera will play the character Sergio.
The official logline for the series states that it is set in the fictional town of Merinac, “where a generations-old rift between dueling fried chicken restaurants – Mimi’s and Frannie’s – has left the founders’ families fractured and the locals taking sides. When a popular cooking show comes to town, things get more complicated as sparks begin to fly and secrets are uncovered.”
