TELEMUNDO announced the premiere of the series EL CAPO on Tuesday, April 4 at 10pm/9c. Starring Mauricio Islas, the action-packed production narrates the story of José Vicente Solís Armenta, a man of humble beginnings who became the drug trafficking leader in Central America. In his fight against his enemies, El Capo will unleash a war in which only the strongest man will survive.

Award-winning Mexican actor Mauricio Islas ("El Manantial,""El Cartel,""Pecados Ajenos," "Amores de Mercado," "Prisioneras"), returns to Telemundo to give life to Jose Vicente Solís Armenta "El Capo," an idealist and ambitious man whose early life struggles lead him to a life of violence and resentment. El Capo will unleash chaos in the lives of his enemies as well as those who are looking to find him to adjust pending debts from the past and present.

In addition to his loyal team of trusted and loyal assassins, which includes Perris (Sara Maldonado), Checo (Claudio Lafarga), Tavo (Gerardo Taracena) and his brother Poncho (Miguel Rodarte), El Capo's world will also create uncertainty in the lives of his wife Maria Guadalupe (Marisol del Olmo), a naïve and devoted mother of two; and Sofia Cáceres (Irán Castillo), a defiant and intellectual woman with a desire for vengeance against him. Cáceres will seduce El Capo but will also end up falling in love with him to the point where she will no longer know if her desire for vengeance is stronger than her love.
