Ana Ortiz Confirms 'Ugly Betty' Revival Interest

Ana Ortiz, known for her role as Hilda Suarez on Ugly Betty, has expressed strong interest in a potential revival of the series, which ended in 2010 after four seasons. Ortiz and other cast members, including Michael Urie and America Ferrera, are eager to participate, but Ortiz insists that a revival must be more than a two-hour movie to properly explore the characters and their stories. She suggests a six-episode series as the ideal format. However, the revival faces challenges, particularly regarding rights ownership, as the original series was based on the Colombian telenovela Yo soy Betty, la fea. Despite these hurdles, Ortiz remains optimistic about the possibility of a revival, emphasizing the cast's desire to return. The show remains popular, recently gaining renewed interest following its debut on Netflix.
