In 2025, we got a clearer picture of the place Latino talent holds in Hollywood today. Series like The Bear cemented that presence with complex main characters, like Liza Colón-Zayas’s Tina Marrero, a deeply explored figure with a Latino identity. This was further reinforced by the sustained presence of names such as Pedro Pascal, Diego […]
The celebrity world can be competitive, more than dramatic, and let’s face it — fake. “Friends” and collaborators in the business one day can become bitter rivals tomorrow. Now add in some Latina-ness, and the drama goes up several notches. Our reputation for being assertive, vocal, no-nonsense, and quick to go from zero to 100, […]
Chief of War, the Apple TV+ series, is far from a flat experience — you can breathe it, feel it; it smells of earth, blood, and sea salt. It grips you from the opening minutes, as Kaʻiana (played by Jason Momoa) faces off against a shark in the depths, and it doesn’t let go until […]

HBO’s Genera+ion is a quick, witty high school series that mixes the evocative drama of Skins and the cinematographic […]
