Betty en NY (2019) brings the classic ugly-duckling story to the streets of New York – with heels, hustle, and heart. As die-hard fans of Yo soy Betty, la fea, the hype for Betty en NY was real. A fresh, modern retelling with Betty dropped into the glittery madness of New York City promised fashion flops, office tea, and glow-up redemption arcs galore.
Beatriz Aurora Rincón, a brilliant Latina with zero fashion sense and endless determination, lands a job at a high-end fashion company where image is everything… and she sticks out like a sore thumb in sensible shoes.
As she navigates workplace drama, ruthless rivals, and a crush on her handsome (and very taken) boss, Betty proves that brains, loyalty, and staying true to yourself never go out of style. It’s the glow-up journey we all root for – with NYC flair and telenovela-level twists.
Based on: Yo soy Betty, la fea (1999)
