Belinda's long-awaited return to acting took a firm step towards reality. This week, the first images of the artist in character as Carlota of Habsburg, the last Empress of Mexico, were leaked during the filming of the biographical series "Carlota." The photographs, which quickly went viral on social media, offer an exclusive glimpse into the scale of this period production. In the snapshots taken on set, Belinda is seen wearing elaborate 19th-century dresses, highlighting the detailed costume design that seeks to recreate the elegance and drama of the imperial court. In some of the revealed scenes, the "Cactus" singer shares the screen with Spanish actor Miguel Angel Silvestre, who also appears in period military attire. For Belinda, this role represents one of the most important challenges of her career. According to previous statements the actress made on her social media, playing Empress Carlota was a dream she had been pursuing for over two years. “Today it’s a reality. I have no words to describe what this means to me,” she enthusiastically shared at the start of filming. What is known about the series? Produced by Sony, the series will consist of 10 episodes that will explore not only the political aspects and difficulties Carlota faced in a turbulent Mexico, but also her complex love story with Maximilian of Habsburg. The plot promises to immerse the viewer in a web of ambition, loyalty, and betrayal.

Currently, Belinda is based in Madrid, Spain, the city that serves as the main location for filming.

Although there is still no official release date, these first images have raised the expectations of fans and critics, positioning “Carlota” as one of the most anticipated releases of next year.
