Chiquito de la Calzada legal battle featured in new documentary
Movistar Plus is set to release a documentary titled ‘El otro Chiquito’ on Thursday, October 1. The film explores a significant legal conflict faced by the famous Spanish comedian Chiquito de la Calzada in 1995.
The dispute centered on the character Lucas Grijander, featured in the popular television program ‘Esta noche cruzamos el Mississippi’. Chiquito de la Calzada initiated legal action, believing the character was damaging his career, while the case raised questions regarding the rights to characters that had become part of popular culture.
Creator Diego San José described the project as a ‘true crime’ approach to a comedic figure, focusing on the legal battles involving lawyers and judges rather than a traditional biopic.
