The New Mexico Film Office announces FOX series “The Cleaning Lady” returns to New Mexico to film season 4

Albuquerque, NM — Today, the New Mexico Film Office announced that season four of the FOX television series “The Cleaning Lady” began principal photography in October in and around Albuquerque.

Season four of “The Cleaning Lady” will continue the emotionally driven character drama about Thony (Élodie Yung), a Cambodian-Filipino former surgeon who is currently living in Las Vegas on an expired visa with her son Luca. Although she tried making a living as a cleaning service worker alongside her sister-in-law, Fiona (Martha Millan), Thony was pressured into working for the criminal underbelly of Las Vegas after she witnessed a murder. The longer she lives this double life, the deeper entwined she becomes in the criminal world and the further she crosses the moral line. “The Cleaning Lady” continues to examine healthcare, immigration, and the struggles and triumphs of the human spirit and the American Dream.

In addition to Yung, the series will also star Martha Millan (“Succession”), Kate del Castillo (“Queen of the South”), Khalen Roman Sanchez (“The Cleaning Lady”), Faith Bryant (“The Cleaning Lady”), Sean Lew (“World of Dance”), and Santiago Cabrera (“Land of Women”).

“The Cleaning Lady” is based on the original Argentine series and produced by Warner Bros. Television and FOX Entertainment. Daniel Cerone (“The Blacklist”), Tim Busfield (“The West Wing”), and Eddie Serrano (“White Collar”) produce the series.

"The return of 'The Cleaning Lady' to New Mexico will continue to boost our local economy and create jobs for the industry,” Steve Graham, New Mexico Film Office director, stated. “Our state's world-class crew base, qualified production facilities, competitive incentives, and diverse landscapes have proven ideal for representing various locations in previous seasons of ’The Cleaning Lady,’ and we are excited for their return for season four.”

The production will employ over 2,500 New Mexicans, including 256 crew members, 6 principal actors, and approximately 2,384 background talent.
