Eugenio Derbez started over in Hollywood - Bullseye with Jesse Thorn

Eugenio Derbez has arguably earned the title of most successful comedy actor in Latin America. He's starred in dozens of movies, was first on the call sheet for five hit TV shows and has created and written several others. He's the voice of Donkey in the Spanish language Shrek movies. Eugenio Derbez could not go out in public in Mexico City without getting mobbed because, y'know, that's what it's like to be the most successful comedy actor in Latin America. Then, in 2013 he wrote, starred in and directed his biggest movie yet: Instructions Not Included. The film opened the door for Eugenio to break through in the U.S. He went on to star in movies like How To Be a Latin Lover in 2017, Overboard in 2018, and the Best Picture winning CODA in 2021. These days you can catch Eugenio in the show Acapulco, which is entering its fourth and final season on Apple TV +. We chat with Eugenio about the last season of Acapulco. He also talks with us about how he made the jump from being a movie star in Mexico to a movie star here in the United States. Plus, he tells us why he thought it made sense for him to voice donkey in the Spanish language version of Shrek. 00:00 Intro 01:38 Acapulco and writing a show in multiple languages 04:00 Translating a joke to Spanish 05:58 Culturally specific jokes 07:47 Having a working actor as a mother 09:23 Was "actor" what Eugenio wanted to be? 11:50 Was Eugenio a serious person growing up? 12:38 What's different between the comedy in Mexico and the US? 15:28 Acapulco's tone 17:02 Being a star in Latin America and starting over in the states 20:59 Auditioning in pilot season 22:43 Making movies that are in both English and Spanish 24:23 Success in the US vs in Mexico 26:10 The appeal of coming to the US 27:07 Living in Mexico and the US 27:54 What do you miss most about Mexico? 29:00 Immigration in the United States 31:31 Immigration conversation continued 34:14 Outro Want to hear more?
