Teresa Ruiz: The Mexican actress that was ‘perfect’ for Mark Wahlberg’s passion project
12.04.2022 - 17:41 / us.hola.com
Teresa Ruiz is a Mexican actress representing Latinas in Hollywood with a sense of power, grace, and humility. Born in Santiago Matatlan, Oaxaca, Mexico, Ruiz is known best for her role as Queen Isabella Baptist in Narcos: Mexico. She has several films coming out soon, with the first being Father Stu, (in theaters April 13th) where she acted alongside Hollywood legends Mark Wahlberg and Mel Gibson. Written and directed by Rosalind Ross, her talent radiates throughout the film, and her character Carmen is a bright light full of faith, wit, and love.
Ruiz has won several awards for Best Actress internationally, and her career is only going up from here. HOLA! USA is excited to have Ruiz as the star of our digital cover and in this exclusive interview, we talked to the actress about her experiences acting with Wahlberg and Gibson, the differences in having a woman in the director’s seat, the moment she knew she wanted to be an actress, and more. I was sent the script.
I read it. I really liked it because it spoke about a vocation and faith and the capacity of a human being to be redeemed and to grow and to become whoever that person wants to become. And I met with the director the day after I read the script, and we spoke about what I liked.
And she told me her vision, and we really got along. She’s very smart and strong and beautiful, inside and out. And I just wanted to work with her because she was so gentle yet knowing what she wanted.
She wrote the script, she’s producing it, and directed it. And then she liked me. So we then set up a Zoom with Mark, and we read over Zoom because he was shooting a movie far away, and I was in Mexico.
