Salma Hayek returns to the Mexican film industry as producer of the film “I want your life”.
This work was essential for the development of the project, as highlighted by the protagonists of the film: Erick Elías, Bárbara de Regil, Natalia Téllez, Zuria Vega and Jesús Zavala.
Despite the distance, Hayek kept an eye on the feature film and gave valuable advice during the script reading via virtual call.
What is “I want your life” about?
“I want your life”
“I want your life” is a romantic comedy that tells the story of Nico Zamora (Erick Elías), a soccer promise whose career is cut short by an injury on the pitch. Eight years later, tired of the monotony, his life takes an unexpected turn and he fulfills everything he ever dreamed of: becoming a famous soccer player, along with his wife (Zuria Vega) and his son.
For Erick Elías, this project was one of the most challenging of his career because he had to learn to play soccer and understand many things about the sport. Recording alongside Las Águilas del América, in the middle of the league, also complicated the logistics of filming.
Bárbara de Regil gives life to Sofi, a popular influencer, in a funny character who is not to be admired and is only looking for fame, money and recognition.
For her part, Zuria Vega plays Nico’s wife, Sara, a psychologist who gives her all her support and understanding so she can find her way.

One of the most important messages of “I want your life” is that you are not always happy when a dream comes true and that it is important to accept yourself to find true happiness.
In the words of Bárbara de Regil, “accepting yourself as a human being is where success in life begins”. Nico was happy with his wife and his son, but he focused on his past and failed to appreciate what he had.
It should be noted that “I want your life” is a fun and moving film that addresses relevant issues such as the search for happiness and self-acceptance, while Salma Hayek’s work as producer was essential for the success of the project, according to what highlighted by the protagonists of the film.
