Casting

edit

Anette Michel was the first to cast in La Mujer de Judas. Mauricio Ochmann, Manolo Cardona, Daniel Elbittar and Victor Gonzalez auditioned for the roles of Salomon and Alirio. Carla Hernández auditioned for two roles, Emma and Natalia, but eventually failed in both characters. Curiously, Hernandez and Ochmann became the protagonist of Telemundo's Rosa Diamante. Christian Meier auditioned for the role of Marcos, but was replaced by Javier Gomez. Later, the producers cast him for the role of Simon, however the role landed on Mauricio Islas. Peruvian actress Saby Kamalich was originally cast as Berenice, where she was seen in the promos, but on the first day of filming, she was absent and eventually rejected the role due to health problem. Marta Verduzco was selected and it marks her return to telenovelas, after being absent nearly a decade in the industry.
