Happy April 1st to our crew, friends and fans. As spring begins, we start with news that The Cortez Brothers has finally (finally!) secured rights to launch the much-beloved television series "¿Qué Pasa, U.S.A.?" as a musical. The show, America's first bilingual sitcom, was produced by and aired on PBS in the late 1970s.

The Cortez Brothers' production, "¿Qué Pasa, U.S.A. - The Musical," will retain its period setting, Little Havana locations and Cuban-American flavor, adding a variety of original songs to the mix.

Meanwhile, final discussions continue on "¡Three Amigos! Part Dos," a follow-up to the 1986 comedy hit with the ahead-of-its-time tagline of, "They're Down On Their Luck And Up To Their Necks In Señoritas, Margaritas, Banditos And Bullets!"

Finally, financing is nearly in place for "Son of Montana," the television pilot that follows the rise and fall of Tony Montana, Jr., son of the main character in 1983's groundbreaking feature film "Scarface." Production will begin in Oxnard and the Czech Republic this summer.
