Miss XV (sometimes stylized as Miss 15) is a Mexican tween musical television series, starring Paulina Goto and Natasha Dupeyrón. It was inspired by the 1987 telenovela Quinceanera. Pedro Damián produced the series for Nickelodeon Latin America and Canal 5.

Synopsis

Miss XV follows the story of two teenage best friends, Valentina and Natalia, (who were born on the same day at the same hour), who compete in a contest to win the perfect quinceanera birthday party, and long to become the girlfriends of their respective crushes, Nico and Eddy.[1]

Production

Pre-Production and Background

Miss XV is inspired by the 1987 telenovela Quinceanera, starring Thalía and Adela Noriega. Producer Pedro Damián explained that the project is not a remake, nor is it an adaptation of the 1987 telenovela, Quinceanera. [2] The project was first announced in late 2010, and filming began on October 12, 2011. There are 120 episodes planned for season one and 80 for season two.[3] The program began airing on April 16, 2012 for Nickelodeon Latin America and began airing on May 14, 2012 on Canal 5.[4]

Original Cast and Recasting

In 2010, Miss XV (previously called Miss XV: Sueña Princesa) was announced as the latest television production from producer Pedro Damián as a collaboration for Canal 5, and Nickelodeon Latin America.[5] Mexican actresses Danna Paola, Natasha Dupeyrón, and Renata Notni were all cast as leads for the telenovela. A trailer for the telenovela featuring all three actresses was released in late 2010. Mexican actor Eddy Vilard was previously attached to the project for a lead role alongside Danna Paola, but dropped out.[6][7]

By the beginning of 2011, Miss XV was cancelled before production began for unknown reasons.[8] However, in June 2011, the series was reformatted and recast. Most of the original actors previously attached to the project were dropped and their roles were recast. Casting was conducted in Mexico City during June and July 2011. Dupeyrón's role was not recast and she remained an original cast member. Danna Paola and Renata Notni were both dropped from the project. Danna stated that she was no longer interested and wished to work on her solo album.[9]

Paulina Goto was cast as the lead protagonist, replacing Danna Paola. Eiza González auditioned for one of two lead roles. Gonzalez was considered for a part, but was later told that she lost the role because producers felt she was too old.[10] Argentine singer and actress Brenda Asnicar also auditioned for a role, but did not receive a part. [11]

Casting Finalization

In August 2011, producers had completed casting in Mexico City. Paulina Goto, Eleazar Gómez, Natasha Dupeyrón, Yago Muñoz, and Jack Durate were confirmed as the first five lead cast members. However, Pedro Damián revealed that producers were looking to cast third actress as the female antagonist "La Black Princess". [12] In mid-August 2011, newcomer Macarena Achaga, an Argentine MTV Latin America television hostess and model, was confirmed as the lead female antagonist, Leonora Martínez . Miss XV is Achaga's international acting debut.[13][14]
