Benito Martínez Ocasio—a.k.a. Bad Bunny—first ventured into acting with a role in Narcos: Mexico as Kitty. But the Puerto Rican artist has now gotten the role of a lifetime: he’ll star in his own Marvel movie from Sony Pictures as El Muerto.
This is a historic moment, as Martínez Ocasio is set to become the first Latino to lead a Marvel movie. It’s also the first time there is a live-action Marvel flick that focuses on a Latinx character. (Animated Oscar winner Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse was the first to feature a Latinx protagonist, introducing Miles Morales.)
