MANILA, Philippines – Walking Dead actress Christian Serratos is currently in talks to play Tejano music star Selena Quintanilla in the upcoming Netflix series based on her life.

While Netflix has not made official confirmation, several Hollywood news outlets, including Varietyreported the development.

Christian currently plays Rosita Espinosa in The Walking Dead. She has also appeared in The Secret Life of the American Teenager, American Horror Story: Murder House, Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide, and The Twilight Saga.

Netflix first announced Selena: The Series in December 2018.
