MIAMI—Karla Souza does not soften the edges of her new series 56 Days. If anything, she leans straight into the discomfort, and not only the viewer's. The series brings her back to one of the darkest periods of her life: the death for her brother Adrián Olivares, the only Mexican to have taken part of the Menudo boy band.
Souza, one of the most prolific and versatiles Latina actresses in Hollywood, embraces the raw edges of the riveting story presented in 56 Days, already avaliable in Prime Video, even if the memories that bring tears to her eyes. She was filming the series when she heard the news of Adrián's passing. Visiting Miami now is bittersweet, her nieces are here, as well as his absence. But Souza is used to duality. Also, loves her work and the quirky characters she was brought to life, as well as the craziness of the story she is telling now.
