Benicio Del Toro: The Wolfman

I love to see my fellow Latinos making it big on the silver screen. I enjoy the movie just a little bit more knowing I am supporting them and that the person giving that great performance on the big screen shares the same Latino culture as me



This week I will be making an effort to go see The Wolfman Starring Benicio Del Toro, and so should you. If you know a little bit about the Film Industry you should be able to recognize both the actor and the movie, if not let me give you an update.

Benicio Del Toro was born in 1967 in Puerto Rico. You may recognize him Toro from his breakout role as Dario in the James Bond movie Licence To Kill, making him the youngest actor to ever play a James Bond Villain. He has been both involved in the English and Spanish film industry but most notably known for Traffic and 21 Grams where he was both nominated and received a Golden Globe.

Benicio Del Toro plays the main character in The Wolfman, a recreation of the 1949 version. The Wolfman is about Lawrence Talbot, a nobleman, that is comes back to his family estate after his brother vanishes. He becomes reunited with his father and together they go out to look for his brother where Lawrence become bit my the wolfman and discovers a horrifying destiny for himself. The movie is directed by Joe Johnston and with 6 time golden globe winner for visual effects, Rick Baker; so you can expect to see some kick-butt action scene and performances. Plus I hear it has a great sound score and with front man Benicio Del Toro with his rouged wilderness man look that I just can't get enough of, I am sure this movie will be a great horror/thriller film for a Friday night.
