El Señor de los Cielos (English title: The Lord of the Skies), is an American telenovela co-produced by Argos Comunicación and Telemundo. The first season of the series was co-produced by Telemundo and Caracol Televisión. The series is based on the life and work of Amado Carrillo Fuentes, the former leader of the Juarez Cartel.

El Señor de los Cielos premiered in United States on April 15, 2013. The first season comprised 74 episodes, the second 84, and season three 104; it is the first super series produced by Telemundo in having four seasons.

El Señor de los Cielos is a fictional story inspired by true events, the series chronicles the life of Aurelio Casillas, the biggest drug lord in Mexico during the 1990s, whose great ambition was to become the richest and most powerful man in Mexico and its surroundings.

When the world thought Aurelio Casillas had died trying to change his face, El Señor de los Cielos was already a legend. However, he returned from the shadows to eliminate his enemies, and without obstacles, to extend his narcotics network worldwide.

El Señor de los Cielos is imprisoned in a bunker of the Mexican Navy. He has spent months locked in a cell without knowing if it is day or night, withstanding the hard punishment of torturers who seek out the names and whereabouts of his accomplices.

Aurelio Casillas, associated with political strategists, has successfully placed a puppet of his allies in the chair of Pines, finally reaching the site both craved: the summit of power. But this season will not be the law but its own body that will put limits to their aspirations.

On May 12, 2015, Telemundo confirmed the fourth season of the series, during the presentation of Upfront 2015-2016.

Actor Mauricio Ochmann confirmed that there will be a fifth and sixth season.

Telemundo confirmed on May 15, 2016 that the series would see a spinoff based upon actor Mauricio Ochmann's character 'El Chema'.
