Disney Releases First Latina Princess in ‘Elena of Avalor’

0

Disney is creating a new princess and this time around she’s Hispanic.

Disney introduced their first Latina princess with the new animated television series Elena of Avalor. According to ABC news, the series focuses on Elena of Avalor a “brave and adventurous teenager who has saved her kingdom from an evil sorceress and must now learn to rule as crown princess until she is old enough to be queen.”

“She’s still underage so she’s not yet ready to rule and so, she just has the challenge of taking care of her family and this huge kingdom and have this awesome responsibility,” said actress Aimee Carrero, who is the voice of Elena, told ABC Good Morning America.

The series will focus on stories that center around Hispanic traditions, foods and customs related to Latin and Hispanic cultures. It will also include original music ranging from Latin pop, salsa and banda.

Carrero’s mother is Dominican and her father is Puerto Rican. She said it means “absolutely everything” for her to get cast and play the first Latina princess. “Disney’s been in my family for a very long time and just to see my own images represented, my own culture represented, is really special and I hope it will be for everybody watching,” she said.

“What I love most about Elena is she’s her own hero,” Carrero added. “There’s no ‘Prince Charming,’ so I hope people at home watching will just be inspired her sense of self, her confidence and her leadership.”

The series premieres Friday, July 22 at 7 p.m. ET on Disney Channel. Carrero, 27, sings Elena’s anthem, “My Time.”

‘Deadpool 2’ to Film in 2017

Deadpool is expected to start filming in the next six months.

Now that 20th Century Fox has released Deadpool and X-Men: Apocalypse in theaters this year, producers are getting ready for the next feature film.

Next up for the X-Men film series is Wolverine 3, which is now filming in New Orleans, Louisiana and Albuquerque, New Mexico. It will allegedly be the last time Hugh Jackman will play the superhero character.

Following Wolverine 3 we have Deadpool 2 and Channing Tatum’s Gambit. Recently, Simon Kinberg spoke to That Hashtag Show at the 2016 Saturn Awards and offered the following rough schedule for the upcoming X-Men franchise installments (spinoffs and/or sequels alike). “The first thing up, we’re shooting the Wolverine movie right now and we start shooting Deadpool 2 at the beginning of next year, then I sit down and start writing the next of the mainline X-Men movies.”

It’s important to point out that Deadpool was a box office hit movie and essentially saved Ryan Reynolds’ acting career. In fact, Deadpool earned $500 million at the global box office in less than two weeks. In addition, 20th Century made a ton of money off the movie considering the movie only cost $58 million to make.

Deadpool previously filmed in Vancouver, Canada and movie sets tend to film their sequels in the same filming location as the first movie. So, expect casting calls and new information released in the next six months or so.

People Review REAL Casting Calls [VIDEO]

People review casting calls and share their honest opinions.

Casting directors sometimes have the toughest job in the business. They are forced to take lines of dialogue and create a character synopsis of only a few sentences. Then, they are tasked to find the perfect actor for the acting job by posting casting calls. Sometimes it works out perfectly. Other times, casting calls end up being indirectly racist.

In this great video by BuzzFeedYellow, real people read actual casting calls and share their opinions on casting calls. It’s a great eye-opening look into the film industry and casting calls actors read on a daily basis. For example, one person says, “It’s only 6 words and that’s the most racist sh*t I’ve read all week”
