16 March: Selena is set to produce new sitcom comedy “15 Candles”

According to exclusive information from DEADLINE, Selena along with Tanya Saracho & Gabriela Revilla Lugo will be producing a new single-camera comedy “15 Candles”, a reconfiguration of the world of John Hughes‘ 16 Candles.

The half-hour series—from UCP for Peacock—follows four young Latinas starting high school as they overcome their feelings of invisibility while exploring what it means to leave childhood behind through the lens of the traditional female coming-of-age rite: the quinceañera.

Saracho, under her Ojalá Production banner, and Lugo serve as writers and executive producers of the project. Gomez also executive produces under her July Moon Productions. Christine Dávila of Ojalá Productions co-executive produces.

Gomez is a top-selling artist, actor, producer, entrepreneur, and philanthropist.

As a producer, she has produced the hit Netflix series 13 Reasons Why; and the lauded Netflix docu-series Living Undocumented. Gomez executive produces and appears on the buzzworthy HBO Max cooking series Selena + Chef. Currently, she executive produces and stars in the critically acclaimed Hulu series Only Murders in the Building opposite Steve Martin and Martin Short.
