Raffaella Carrà's life becomes a TV series: "Biographical rights acquired"

Her myth continues to live on seven months after her death , in the television tributes that are paid to her and in the memory of the many who love and appreciate her.

And now to Raffaella Carrà, icon of Italian TV, a TV series will be dedicated that will tell the story of her life: from the beginnings to the television career, the triumphs at home and abroad and above all the unconditional love of the public for her who is considered a legend to world level.

Gruppo Lucisano and Kubla Khan 1990 announced the realization of the series after the acquisition of the biographical rights. "I am really happy to announce this project and to be able to collaborate with Raffaella's heirs, as well as the production partnership with Umberto Massa," said producer Paola Lucisano.

"We are all enthusiastic about this new adventure, as it allows us to represent a unique figure in the world of entertainment. A myth that has influenced entire generations, an artist who has been able to enchant audiences of all ages, genders and cultural levels. His extraordinary popularity has crossed the Italian borders and made it an icon of music and costume in every part of the world. And it is in the world that we will bring it ".

The project is in its infancy and at the moment there are no details. We only know of the acquisition of the rights. The most complex job lies in the search for the actress who will have to play Carrà on the small screen.

But when and where will it be broadcast? Certainly not before 2024, on where Rai is in pole position but there is nothing official: "Rai is obviously interested in a series on Raffaella Carrà, we are talking about the queen of public service television par excellence, as well as a professional at 360 degrees in every field worldwide. There have been contacts with producers, the project must be officially presented and approved ", explain sources of Rai Fiction.

A project with wide margins, especially if we consider that the popularity of the Carrà goes far beyond the Italian borders and concerns the whole Latin world, in particular Spain and Argentina, where it conducted several TV programs and enjoyed enormous musical success.

Raffaella Carrà died last July at the age of 78, due to an illness which, by her will, had not been made public. In 2020, the Guardian called her "the cultural icon who taught Europe the joys of sex".
