Personal Quote:
I am tired of our characters being so incomplete. When do we ever save the day in a film? When does a Latino actor get to be the hero? See more »Trivia:
He originally auditioned for the role of Ritchie Valens in La Bamba (1987), and Lou Diamond Phillips originally auditioned for the role of Bob. See more »Star Sign:
