The biggest battle that I have is being a woman in the world. That takes center stage for me.

It’s weird when people say, ‘You’re a Cuban actress’ or ‘You’re a Spanish actress.’ They put a thing in front of what you are, but I’m like, ‘I’m an actress.’ I’ll see what I can do, but don’t put me in a place that you don’t know yet. Don’t put a label on my work before you see it. I just wanted a chance. I wanted to know that I was chasing the same goals as all the other actresses that I love and admire. Everyone deserves the opportunity to fight for the part they want.

“Eight years ago when I became an actress, I used to travel to Los Angeles and take general meetings with different producers, writers, and directors, and they kept on asking me the same question over and over again, “What’s your dream role?” I kept on saying, “I’m open to all genres as long as the story is interesting enough, but if you really ask me, what would I like to do is to show the stronger side of women, because I feel that there’s not enough stories being told about strong women, independent women.”

Nothing pleases me more than when somebody who was awe-inspired to be working with me realises I’m just another schmuck that they’re bored of hanging out with on a set. I love that moment. I like it when that persistent illusion is smashed.

The most frustrating thing is picking up a script and loving the roles in it except the female ones. It’s really annoying and something I’ve striven to change in the industry. I’ve actually just started working on the producing side. Our goal is going to be to work with female writers and directors, and female-driven scripts. We want to change things.

Life is beautiful. Cherish every moment even if you’re stressed or hurt or whatnot. There’s always tomorrow and it always gets better. 26/06/1993
