The Woman In Charge tells the story of Gloria Guzmán, a woman who appeared to have it all: a successful career, a cherished son, and a loving family. On what is supposed to be the happiest day of her life, marrying the father of her son, the celebration turns into tragedy when a group of hitmen bursts into the ceremony and kills her groom. Gloria not only loses her great love, but her family also turns their back on her, the government seizes all her assets, the media points fingers at her, and her husband’s enemies pursue her, demanding payment for dirty deals she was unaware of. In her fight for survival, she is mentored by top crime bosses, whom she must win over by utilising her two most formidable assets: her intelligence and her beauty.

The stellar cast also includes Mauricio Henao, Andrés Almeida, Azela Robinson, Verónica Merchant, José María Galeano, Jorge Luis Moreno, and Yany Prado. The ensemble is rounded out by renowned actors Pepe Gímez, Julieta Grajales, Sara Corrales, Uriel del Toro, Jesús Moré, Guillermo Quintanilla, Gary Centeno, Laura Vignatti, Sachi Tamashiro, and Dante Aguiar.
