More than a hard blow, the unexpected departure of Rafael Amaya during the sixth season of The Lord of the Skies was a great challenge for its creator Luis Zelkowicz, who throughout his extensive career as a writer of successful soap operas has had to overcome more of an obstacle like this that has forced him to change the course of history from one day to the next.
The longest-running writer of fiction on Spanish-speaking television shared in a recent interview for the digital creator 'Writer Wannabe' YouTube channel that he was 'well ahead of the plot' by the time the Amaya thing happened.
“There are always unforeseen events for one reason or another. Previously, in season 3, for example, after having 10/12 chapters written we had to return to kill the protagonist's brother and that contrary to being a problem and causing chaos, always one that understands it as a challenge, you you raise it and end up solving it”, he said.
"I have good resolution when I have pressure on me, I feel it as part of my daily life, of my challenges and until now fortunately I have been able to solve it well," he added.
Zelkowicz also admitted that when Amaya happened and he had to unexpectedly leave the recordings of the sixth season they came to think that it might be time to end the saga, but once the superseries aired and they saw the good data from audience that recorded the fiction everything changed.
"We said, 'Is it time to end this?' But it goes on the air and has a good response from the public, you feel as the author […] that there is still an audience that wants to see, "he confessed.
“It is easy to say, but it has been a 7-year process that has resulted in characters with depth, who continue to stay there. We have had to kill some of them. This is a story with many bad and few good, a lot of death because it is a story that touches a great Latin American drama that is drug trafficking […],”he shared.
To date it is unknown if the network plans to produce an eighth season of its star superset. In fact, it was a topic that was not even addressed during the interview.
