What the official trailer shows
The preview lasts almost two minutes and definitely leaves you wanting to see more. “Diego today is an idea, an illusion”, is the first thing we hear Minujín say, already in the role of Guillermo Coppola.
“No one knows better than me how to sell this illusion to people,” he continues to say in what appears to be a meeting with prominent businessmen. They then automatically leave aside the aspect of pure and simple representative, and show for the first time the media side of the character.
There we see the first images of María Campos as Susana Giménez. “With you, Guillermo Coppola,” he says in the first seconds, when we see from the protagonist’s point of view how he enters the television studio of one of the most tuned-in television programs of the moment.
We then move on to another of the best-known aspects of this multifaceted character: his taste for parties, money, women. We also see it in action, in the DJ booth of a bowling alley.
But without a doubt the highlight of the trailer is the following, when we see Coppola at the moment in which the famous anecdote of Maradona’s black Ferrari was falsified.
At this moment in the trailer we see the representative of “El Diego” negotiating with the executives of the famous car company to have a custom-made Ferrari F40, a model that was no longer produced.
And it is precisely that same anecdote that leads towards the end of the trailer, which at its center anticipates the scandals in which the coach of one of the most famous players in the history of football was involved. “And it makes you think… Black Ferrari,” says Minujín, imitating an Italian accent, as he tells the anecdote to a model on a yacht.
The series on Maradona’s controversial manager will be available starting Friday 15 March on Star+.
