Luis Guzmán, actor and youth advocate, has a new film opening on June 10, Puerto Ricans in Paris. A few of us got to talk to him about the film and why he wanted to do this project. We also talked about his thoughts on Latinos and Hollywood. The conversation was fantastic and we didn’t want to stop. It took place at the Boys and Girls Club of East Los Angeles, which was a perfect location for doing this with Luis.
Now you can listen in on the conversation with the hiccups and all. And we hope you’ll enjoy it.
The plot: NYPD detectives Luis (Luis Guzmán) and Eddie (Edgar Garcia) visit Paris to help a gorgeous French designer Colette (Alice Taglioni) catch the black market thief who’s ripped off her new handbag design. Also starring Rosario Dawson, Rosie Perez, Miriam Shor, Frédéric Anscombe, and directed by Ian Edelman.
Guzmán returns this fall in CBS’ second season of Code Black.
The film will be available On Demand, Digital HD and in theaters June 10. — A.O.
