Age: twenty-seven
Where you live: "Venice, California. If you have to live in L.A., it's the place."
Next Project: "Blood In, Blood Out, directed by Taylor Hackford, who did An Officer and A Gentleman. It deals with the origin of the Mexican Mafia within the U.S. prison system."
Work most proud of: "Bright Angel, which I did with Dermot Mulroney. And One Good Cop, with Michael Keaton."
Favorite Designer: "Tony Lama for boots, man. If I had the money, Armani. Otherwise, I'm a Gap T-shirt kind of guy."
What type you are: "I'm perceived as a Latin macho, but what I really am is a silly goof."
