William Levy working with NASCAR on reality TV series

William Levy, star of movies and television, has teamed with Emmy Award-winning NASCAR Productions to produce a non-scripted reality series about Hispanic race car drivers. "I'm truly thrilled about partnering with NASCAR and I can't wait to show my fans worldwide this creative endeavor," the Cuban-born actor and star of telenovela "Triunfo del Amor" ("Triumph of Love") said.

The show will follow drivers as they attempt to make it in NASCAR while transitioning to life in America, and it will be pitched to networks in February. Levy, who will join Vince Vaughn on the big screen in "Term Life" later this year, attended the NASCAR Sprint Cup Championship race at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

"Our goal is to produce original TV, film and digital projects that highlight some of the most compelling stories in NASCAR," Zane Stoddard, NASCAR's vice president of entertainment marketing and content development, said. "We are excited about the opportunity to partner with William Levy and his team on a project we believe both sports and non-sports fans alike will enjoy." NASCAR
