MIAMI, March 21, 2016 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — Following the success of the first three seasons of “El Señor de los Cielos,” starring Rafael Amaya, TELEMUNDO announced the launch of an innovative Communications and Marketing campaign to herald the premiere of the new season of the Super Series on Monday, March 28 at 10pm/9c. The campaign features an interactive “El Señor de los Cielos” video game, accessible via Telemundo.com and Facebook, and more digital content, including more than 30 exclusive pieces as well as talent appearances around the country giving fans a chance to interact with the series’ stars. As the new season begins, Aurelio Casillas (Rafael Amaya) will be able to manipulate like puppets his high-ranking government allies, giving him the hold on power he has always dreamed of. But, this time, it is not the law but rather his health that interferes with Aurelio’s ambitions as a serious kidney disease turns his own blood into his deadliest enemy.
