The movie takes a deep dive into the intense relationship between the fiery comedic powerhouse, Lucille Ball, and her Cuban-American showman husband, Desi Arnaz. Or as Sorkin puts it, “Lucy and Desi were madly in love with each other. Madly, madly in love with each other. They also often wanted to kill each other. There was very interesting friction in this relationship.”
To promote the new flick, the streaming giant has teamed up with Compartés Chocolates to create a treat that is definitely an homage to the legendary couple — and we think fans are going to love it.
Jonathan Grahm CEO & Founder of Compartés expressed his excitement for being a part of this project in a statement (via People), saying, “Growing up the ‘I Love Lucy’ series was one of my favorite TV shows because we watched it all together as a family. I am so excited to create this special chocolate bar in homage to these iconic stars and in celebration of the Being the Ricardos with Prime Video.” The confectioner has been around since 1950, and counts Marilyn Monroe, Frank Sinatra, Elvis Presley, Winston Churchill and The Kennedys among celebs who have satiated their sweet tooth with Compartés chocolate.
