You wouldn’t expect to see the tough and beautiful Roselyn Sanchez (Without a Trace) in the middle of a bam-bam action film like Act of Valor, starring actual Navy Seals on active duty (as well as a number of great Latino character actors). But there she is, holding her own with real, live soldiers and long-time tough-guy actors like Nestor Serrano (24, 90210, Homeland), Gonzalo Menendez (Cane, The Event, Harry’s Law), and Emilio Rivera (Weeds, Sons of Anarchy).
Roselyn stopped by KTLA-TV’s morning show to talk about the movie and the birth of her new baby (all of seven weeks ago!). You can see that here…
