On today's episode, Elyfer Torres and Carmen DeLeon are joined by fellow Latina entertainer Arianna Ortiz. While Arianna is known for acting, she is also an advocate for LatinX artists in Hollywood. Her newest film “Nine Days” is now in theaters, directed by Edson Oda and starring Winston Duke, Zazie Beetz and Tony Hale.
In this conversation, Arianna talks about how her mom instilled a passion for acting in her, the evolution of her career as a Latina in Hollywood and why representation matters both on and off screen. Plus, she touches on her belief that now is the time for LatinX actors to challenge existing stereotypes, as we are on the cusp of exploring an infinite amount of unique stories!
