Ex-'Gran Hermano' contestant Sabrina Cortez to play Silvina Luna in Netflix docuseries

Netflix is set to release a documentary series delving into the life of the late Argentine model Silvina Luna. Titled 'Perfecta: la voz de Silvina Luna,' the series promises an intimate look at her life, utilizing archival footage and personal testimonies.

Luna passed away on August 31, 2023, due to complications arising from cosmetic procedures performed by Dr. Aníbal Lotocki. The documentary aims to explore her journey and the circumstances surrounding her death. In a notable casting decision, former 'Gran Hermano' contestant Sabrina Cortez has reportedly been chosen to embody Luna in certain recreated scenes within the series. While Cortez is not a professional actress, reports suggest she was selected due to a perceived resemblance, particularly in her eyes.

Silvina asked me until the end to film her. She had it in her head that she wanted to make this documentary and wanted to show everything that was happening to her. She wanted her story to serve a purpose, to be an example for other people.

According to reports from the program LAM, Cortez has already signed a contract and filmed her parts for the documentary. Her role will involve recreating scenes to enrich the narrative, rather than delivering dialogue. This casting choice has generated buzz, given Cortez's existing public profile from her time on the reality television show.

'Perfecta: la voz de Silvina Luna' is reportedly the fulfillment of Luna's final wishes. Her brother, Ezequiel Luna, revealed that Silvina asked to be filmed during her hospitalization, wanting her story to serve as a lesson for others. The series will incorporate first-person recordings made by Luna herself before her death, offering a deeply personal perspective on her experiences.

She is not an actress, but we all know her. She has already signed the contract and I think she has filmed her participations. The one who is going to interpret Silvina Luna in her documentary is Sabrina Cortez, the one from Gran Hermano.
