It appears that Hunan Television is going to be producing a Chinese version of “Ugly Betty.”
“Ugly Betty” is learning to speak Chinese.
A Chinese TV station says it plans to make a Chinese version of the Colombian series about a plain woman trying to fit in at a fashion company, which also spawned a hit version on U.S. television.
Ugly Betty was inspired by the Colombian telenovela, a Latin American soap drama, Yo Soy Betty, La Fea, which translates as I Am Betty, the Ugly One. the story
Reports say that the show has a budget of 150 million yuan ($21 million USD), and shooting is slated to begin in April. It will run for five seasons, or a total of 400 episodes.
It will be interesting to see if it is as successful in China as it has been in the US and Columbia.
