Mayan Lopez Signs with Agency for the Performing Arts (APA)

Mayan Lopez has new representation…

The 26-year-old Mexican American actress, writer and producer has signed with the Agency for the Performing Arts (APA).

George Lopez & Mayan LopezLopez is the co-creator, writer, producer, and star of the NBC comedy series Lopez vs Lopez.

She and her real-life father George Lopez, who also co-created the series with Debby Wolfe, play fictionalized versions of themselves on the show, which airs Friday nights at 8:00 pm.

Lopez vs. Lopez is a working-class family comedy about dysfunction, reconnection and all the pain and joy in between. It follows a working-class, old-school Latino (George Lopez) who moves in with his modern Gen Z daughter (Mayan Lopez) as they rebuild their dysfunctional relationship one argument at a time.

In December, NBC announced that it gave the freshman series a full-season, 22-episode. The series does well on broadcast for a Friday primetime spot.

Season 1 is averaging about 2M same-day viewers per episode, which leads nicely into the rest of NBC’s Friday lineup.

Lopez has been honored as part of the LA Times’ inaugural LA Vanguardia class.
