Ozuna is bringing his success and life story to a new film called Odisea (Odyssey), marking his debut as executive producer; the project will be released under his own production company Bear with Oz Films.

Named after the artist’s 2017 debut studio album — which spent 46 weeks at No. 1 on Billboard’s Top Latin Albums chart — the biopic will tell the story of triumph on how Juan Carlos (portrayed by the artist himself) became a global Latin music sensation.

“Odisea is a project that we worked on with great dedication with the goal that my story can serve as an inspiration to children and young people to not stop pursuing their dreams, and never give up until they achieve them,” the artist born Juan Carlos Ozuna Rosado said in a press release provided to Billboard. “We all have the ability to do it despite the obstacles that we face along the way. I am a living example of that.” 

The forthcoming film, which does not yet have a premiere date, is directed by Spanish filmmaker Alexis Morante, and was filmed in the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and New York. Produced by Zumaya Cordero with Caribbean Films, it stars Ozuna and a cast that includes Jorge Ledenborg Jr., Dania Ramírez, Ana Maria Estupiñán, Jencarlos Canela, Jessica Cediel, Laura Gómez, Israel Lugo, Sawandi Wilson, and Milly Quezada.

“For me, directing Odisea has been a challenge in every sense, both artistic and technical. … A film that faces a novel way of narrating to portray the essence of an interplanetary star of current music who, far from losing his roots, brings them to the foreground of a story full of feeling and inspiration,” Morante noted in the press release. “A film built from cinematic fiction, but which crosses the border of reality again and again with an actor interpreting his own life as I have never seen before.”
