There’s no confusion about the release date of Cristo Fernandez’s latest project.

Una Pequeña Confusión, an ensemble comedy starring the 33-year-old Mexican actor and Ted Lasso star, is set for a December theatrical release by Mexican powerhouse film company Videocine.

In a madcap twist based on actual events, a mix-up at the clinic results in each mom-to-be carrying the other one’s baby. The couples must navigate their vastly different lifestyles and parenting philosophies, finding common ground for the sake of their future children, all while dealing with societal norms and the complexities of love.

Produced by No Dancing Today and Gebo Films, Una Pequeña Confusión is penned by Marcos Bucay whose credits include Netflix hit Club de Cuervos and the Amazon Original series How to Survive Being Single, created by Sebastián and Emiliano Zurita.

The comedy is directed by Argentina’s Ariel Winograd who has helmed a few episodes of How to Survive Being Single and is best known for his action comedy The Heist of the Century.
