Sofía Aragón, second finalist of Miss Universe 2019, does not stop. Now he is betting on the vertical format with a psychological thriller about a kidnapping, in which he would also star.
“Vertical stories are what are working a lot,” he explains. “It is a psychological thriller series that talks about a kidnapping. I am fascinated by talking about mental health and, although it is not about that as such, it is required after going through something like that.”
Projects underway
She writes the script herself. The former host of TV Azteca would leave total production in the hands of another person. Sofía studied production, direction and acting at the New York Film Academy and founded her own company.
With her he made the short film The Night, inspired by the tragic loss of his friend Cheslie Kryst, former Miss USA. This work, released in 2024, earned her the award for Best Producer at the LA Independent Women Film Award that year.
Now he is looking to turn that short into a feature film. The woman from Guadalajara is looking for financing and dreams of having a director lead the project. To do this, he attended Iberseries in Madrid and the Platinum Awards, where he forged alliances.
“It is now what I am giving priority to. The short film gave me a lot of visibility about what I want to tell. I hope to soon be able to give more news,” he comments.
He also acts
In parallel, Sofía is still active as an actress. She participated in the series Velvet and premiered the feature film Woman from Another Time on Canela TV, her first leading role in film, alongside the Argentine Rodrigo Guirao.
“She is a woman from 1965 who has to make an important decision. She meets an alushe who gives her a path in life and that transforms her,” she explained to EL UNIVERSAL.
