Eugenio Derbez

Even as "king of Latino comedy", Eugenio Derbez always dreamed of Hollywood. Now, he has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Eugenio shares with Dan how he's overcome countless doubts over the decades, fought to break stereotypes of Latinos in media, and the pride he feels in seeing the joyous representation of Mexican culture in his Apple TV+ series, ACAPULCO. He also reveals the humbling experience of writing, directing, and starring in the all-time highest grossing Spanish-language film in the world ("Instructions Not Included") to leaving a life of success and stardom in Mexico in pursuit of making it (again) in Hollywood. The first two episodes of the fourth and final season of ACAPULCO are now available on Apple TV+, with new episodes every Wednesday.
