Casa Grande cast list: Who stars in Amazon Freevee's bilingual drama series?

Amazon Freevee's bilingual drama series, Casa Grande, is set to premiere on May 1, 2023. The show will tell the story of the hardworking workforce of migrants living in California and their exploitation by wealthy landowners for profit. The show seeks to not only represent the struggles of those undocumented migrants but also give apt representation to the topics of class and culture.

Here's a short synopsis of the series, as per IMDb:

"Follows several families in the farmland of Northern California as it navigates universal themes of class, immigration, culture and family."

Ali Afshar, actor, filmmaker, and owner of ESX Entertainment, said in a statement:

"We molded Casa Grande as a Hispanic-influenced Yellowstone and feel the story will resonate powerfully with audiences appreciating elevated Western themes and cultures presented through a different prism.”

He continued that Amazon Freevee was the "perfect service" for viewers to discover and binge Casa Grande. Describing the show, Afshar said that it was one where the intensity never let and the good versus evil trope became "skewed and more challenging to accept.”

Casa Grande is also the debut series of ESX Entertainment. The five-episode series stars many notable names like John Pyper-Ferguson, Christina Moore, and Karen Bethzabe, among others.

The series is directed by Latin filmmaker Gabriela Tagliavini and written by Lauren Swickard, Alex Ranarivelo, and Michael Cruz. Ava Rettke and Daniel Aspromonte acting are the executive producers of the upcoming show
