OUR FIRST NETFLIX SHOW! Ayer finalmente fue la premier y sigo sin poder creerlo. Pensar que hace unos años estaba subiendo sketches de 6 segundos a la pantalla de sus celulares y hoy estamos en la GRAN PANTALLA! Es absolutamente un sueño. Quiero compartirles que siempre tuve miedo a dar el paso a la actuación por temor a fracasar, hasta que un día decidí intentarlo. Dos años estuve haciendo audiciones y todas sin éxito, pero en cada una de ellas aprendía algo nuevo, mejoraba y volvía a intentarlo. Creo firmemente que si algo no te toca, es que no era para ti. Así que seguí intentando hasta que finalmente en este show conseguí mi primer rol ??. En fin, lo que quisiera dejarles es que todos tenemos sueños perdidos allá afuera y no se van a cumplir por si mismos a menos de que estemos dispuestos a caernos, a aprender y a siempre seguir INTENTANDOLO. No existe el fracaso, simplemente son lecciones. Estoy muy emocionado de que vean la serie y conozcan a mi personaje Alex, la podrán ver este 22 de abril “LUIS MIGUEL” por Netflix! Me llena de orgullo que se haya hecho una producción de este nivel en mi México que va a competir con cualquier otra serie a nivel global. Mucho amor y bonita vibra para todos. Gracias por seguir aquí, apenas es el comienzo ?
