Exclusive: Director Gael García Bernal is speaking out on inequalities in Hollywood.
Bernal's projects come to him in various forms, whether he's asked by a director to star in their film or touched by a story he must be a part of, as was the case with. And while talking to the Guadalajara, Jalisco, native, it doesn't take long to realize that he's passionate about everything he works on.
"We do that all the time in Mexico," he says when asked about whether a cast like this would exist if it wasn't for the subject matter."I don't know about in Hollywood. You're probably inquiring about Hollywood. I don't know. I have no idea.
Bernal has previously shared that he, personally, hasn't seen a U.S. Latinx filmmaker making waves in cinema"in a long time" but says it would be really interesting to see one."That's the thing," he notes."[People need to] not do what's expected and not do the typical film. It's about doing mischievous things."
