CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — The father of slain Tejano star Selena is suing to stop production of a TV series based on what he calls an unauthorized book by the singer’s widower, Chris Perez.
Abraham Quintanilla filed the lawsuit Friday in Nueces County District Court against Perez, Blue Mariachi Productions, LLC, and Endemol Shine North America. Endemol announced last month that it planned to adapt Perez’s 2012 memoir, “To Selena with Love,” into a series.
The lawsuit, posted on the Corpus Christi Caller-Times website, seeks to stop the production. Selena Quintanilla-Perez was fatally shot by her fan club’s president in 1995.
