There are soap operas that give something to talk about for their great success and others for unexpected events that occur during the recordings.

The latter was the case of The Face of Vengeance, a fiction produced by Telemundo in 2012 with David Chocarro as the protagonist. The story made headlines in different media following the unexpected departure of Elizabeth Gutiérrez, who unexpectedly abandoned the project. Eight years later, it is Marlene Favela, who entered into her replacement with a new character, who has since been told through her YouTube channel how surprising it was for her to receive the invitation to join the soap opera, especially because she had just suffered a stroke.

"For some unknown reason, they were going to remove the protagonist and were looking for someone to give life to the new character that was arriving," Favela began to narrate.

"I had just had a stroke, I was in the hospital, in the city of Miami, thank God perfectly well when my manager called me and said 'hey, I know you're in full recovery but notice that Telemundo wants invite you to enter the soap opera The face of revenge and I 'how? but that novel is already on the air. ' [She says to me] 'yes indeed but they need you to come in, you're interested, will you?' And I said 'look, the main thing right now is that my doctors give me permission, I am happy, fascinated but I don't know they would have to speak and ask why if I go into a project I go into 100 and I can't be halfway,' she recalled. protagonist of the unforgettable melodrama Wild Cat.

Marlene continued telling that the producer of the soap opera, Joshua Mintz, contacted his doctors and it was then that they gave him the go-ahead to join the story.

“The doctors said 'go ahead, she is perfect to work, she will even do very well so she does not stay at home thinking' why did this happen to me? What did I do? What did I not do? ', Those regrets that always come to us when important events change our lives. They gave the go-ahead and I was happy because I was really looking forward to doing this project and going back to work. For me it meant a lot on a personal level, on an emotional level, going back to the recording forums,”she acknowledged.
