Founded in 2005 by Producer Gil Lopez, Gordo Entertainment established itself as a 3rd party production services company offering studios, networks and producers a one-stop destination for all their production services needs. Gordo Entertainment handles every aspect of production from prep to final delivery.
Soon after launching Gordo Entertainment, Gil extended his long term producing relationship with Development Executive/Producer Aaron Sandler. Partnering with Aaron not only expanded the production services offered to third parties, but the two began developing new projects under the Gordo Entertainment banner for both the general and Latino markets.
Since partnering with Aaron, Gordo Entertainment has been commissioned by 20th Century Fox, Fox21, TBS, Showtime, CW, FOX, CBS, VH1, HGTV, DirecTV, Fuel TV, CMT, Discovery Latin America and NuvoTV to develop and produce content.
Gordo Entertainment is committed to producing compelling and entertaining content for all mediums. With the experience producing multiple projects simultaneously, Gordo Entertainment is uniquely suited to deliver a range of projects including those with a modest budget.
Gordo Entertainment currently has LOVE & SALSA and the award winning series MARIO LOPEZ: ONE ON ONE airing on Fuse, as well as, EMPRENDEDORES airing on Discovery Latino.
