Beginning Wednesday, Diego Luna returns as Cassian in ‘Star Wars: Andor,’ the latest Disney+ series. Luna spoke with Latino Rebels about the show and the Latinidad of his lead character.

From White House trips to social media chats, everyone in my social circles was fully aware that Luna’s film about the heroic labor leader was coming out the weekend of March 28, just three […]

Now don’t get us wrong. The following video which we posted yesterday morning rocks. In fact, it is our most popular post of the summer. It is the kind of video the explains itself, and Mexico’s Diego Luna is flipping funny in it. Seriously, the show bleeped out #NoMames? By the way, this is funny, […]

Even though LatinoRebels.com had gotten the United Farm Workers to issue a statement in 2012 about its relationship with Budweiser, new users to Twitter are basically having serious issues with Budweiser’s sponsorship of Diego Luna’s “César Chávez” film. The latest is about a video Budweiser posted a few days […]

Recently, I went to a film screening of “César Chávez” in Bakersfield, California. I went with my wife and children, and watched the film with a packed house of students and farmworkers at the Maya Cinemas. It was a fundraiser for FIELD (Farmworker Institute for Education and Leadership). I’m on the FIELD board and it […]

Weeks before the new César Chávez movie hits U.S. movie theaters, a major promotional push has begun, including a call in the Huffington Post by the President of the United Farm Workers for a national day of service tied to the movie. Directed by Diego Luna and starring Michael Peña, America Ferrara, Rosario Dawson, and […]
