La Patrona (English: The Boss) is a Spanish-language (with English subtitles) telenovela produced by Telemundo and Argos Comunicación. It is a remake of the 1984 Venezuelan telenovela La dueña.[1]
The series stars Aracely Arámbula as Gabriela Suárez, Jorge Luis Pila as Alejandro Beltrán,[2] Christian Bach as Antonia Guerra and Gonzalo García Vivanco as Lucho.[3][4]
The name reflects a Spanish term for addressing a person recognized as a main boss. However, the title is also a reflection of both the protagonist and the antagonist's struggle to conquer power, authority and respect in a labor field traditionally deemed to be a man's job.
