Differences Between Selena: The Series and the Selena Movie
The Biggest Differences Between Netflix's Selena Series and the Iconic 1997 Film
2
The movie Selena is all about the late Mexican-American icon, setting family members like her sister Suzette, brother A.B. and father Abraham as backdrops to her incredible journey. Of course, they play a crucial part in the movie too, but the series focuses much more on the family's dynamics. As executive producers, the family worked with creator Zamora to make sure the story was as true to life as possible, even tearing up in the script room. In the series, we see Suzette and A.B. come into their own as musicians in their own right, and their struggles within their personal relationships – details we never saw in the movie.
