While the film has already generated interest among viewers, details about the specific characters played by each actor have not yet been released.
A Father's Miracle is based on the Turkish film Miracle in Cell No. 7, which was itself an adaptation of the 2013 South Korean comedy-drama of the same name. The Mexican remake reinvents the story with a more subtle and human approach, focusing on pure emotion, according to Paloma and Nacho.
"Un Milagro de Padre" (A Miracle of a Father) follows the story of a father whose life is turned upside down after being unjustly imprisoned for a crime he didn't commit. With her freedom taken away, his young daughter is forced to travel the world alone, without the person who protected her most.
Netflix has also released a trailer for the film, which offers a glimpse into the tragic incident that leads him to accept his guilt and the painful separation from his young daughter that follows.
Mexican comedian and actor Omar Chaparro has reflected on how starring in a drama like Netflix's "Un Milagro de Padre" represented a risky venture for him due to his established reputation in comedy.
Chaparro also shared that, while he knew stepping away from the comfort of comedy would be challenging, he deliberately seeks out roles that push him, emphasizing that this is important for his creative growth.
The actor also reflected on how the film's director, Ana Lorena Pérez Ríos, supported him with her advice. "I couldn't have done it the same without the confidence she gave me," he said, noting that her support allowed him to fully commit to the role.
