Julio Cedillo: Fighting Latino Stereotypes in Hollywood

Ask Jordan a question!

In the latest episode, Jordan sits down (in person!) with actor Julio Cedillo. You probably know him from Sicario, Narcos: Mexico or Cowboys and Aliens. He's played drug lords, crooked cops, bandits and other intimidating characters, but that couldn't be further from who he is in real life. Julio is a giant teddy bear with a heart of gold - and that's apparent in this conversation.

Julio opens up about being a Mexican immigrant as a child, navigating one-dimensional and stereotypical latino characters in Hollywood, balancing family and his career and how he copes when he starts being too hard on himself.
