"Robert Rodriguez&amp;#039;s movie El Mariachi is to be adapted for TV. Based on the 1992 movie of the same name, El Mariachi will tell the story of a young mariachi musician, Mart\u00EDn Aguirre, who is mistaken as a legendary fugitive and becomes embroiled in a war with the cartels.   The same character was previously portrayed by Antonio Banderas in Desperado and Once Upon a Time in Mexico, while actor Carlos Gallardo played the role of Mart\u00EDn Aguirre in Rodriguez&amp;#039;s film. A press release has stated that the plot will see Aguirre &amp;quot;seek revenge against those who wronged him, regain his honor and fight for the woman he loves&amp;quot; after he is wrongly imprisoned. Sony Pictures announced today (August 20) that the new drama will be filmed in Mexico and air in Latin America, and that 70 episodes - each an hour long - will be produced. The drama will star Iv\u00E1n Arana as Mart\u00EDn Aguirre, Marta Higareda as Celeste Sandoval and Julio Bracho as Fernando Sandoval. "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
