HBO Max The Garcias is Breaking Down Latino Stereotypes
The all NEW HBO Max series, “The Garcias” is now streaming. There’s a lot of buzz surrounding this new show, and we had a chance to talk to the sensational cast.
“The Garcias” are a successful multigenerational familia, with both modern and traditional Latinx values. This new series showcases a loving family in not so stereotypical roles. It is truly refreshing and way overdue. It’s not about gangs, drugs, and/or about latino hired help. It’s about time… We LOVE this HBO!
Watch our exclusive interviews below!
“The Garcias,” is HBO Max’s reboot of the hit Nickelodeon series The Brothers Garcia, and comes from New Cadence Productions, the banner founded by Brothers Garcia co-creator and executive producer Jeff Valdez.
After 15 years, the Garcia kids are grown up and now have children of their own. The new extended Garcia family travels to the beautiful Riviera Maya in Mexico, a place full of self-discovery, where they will all learn what it really takes to be a “familia.”
Talent Interviews:
Paired: Bobby Gonzalez (George Garcia) & Nitzia Chama (Ana Camacho, George’s wife)
Watch“The Garcias” on HBOMAX with your entire familia today!
WHY A REBOOT?
The Brothers Garcia received numerous awards, positive reviews and lots of publicity around over 50 produced episodes that aired in over 40 countries in multiple languages. It is one of a handful of shows ever produced that shed a positive, humorous light on a family that happened to be Latino.
However, because there continues to be a lack of shows that portray Latinos with a sense of normalcy, the mission behind The Garcias is to champion the aspirational family-centric values of the Latino community and to share these universal themes that will entertain, educate and inspire.

My dad and I had the pleasure of meeting the brilliant Jorge R. Gutiérrez. He is a talented animator, director, and he is dedicated to bring Latinx folklores and stories to the big screen, while giving children of color the opportunity to see themselves represented in films and television. In celebration of his new mini series Maya and the The Three, Gutiérrez has created a spectacular, interactive art installation available to the Los Angeles community! 📍: Eugene OBREGON Park 💲: FREE
Maya and the Three NOW Streaming on NETFLIX.
When I was a child, I would dream in vibrant colors. I dreamt of fearless warriors, unimaginable magic, and daring adventure. I’d turn on the tv, flip through the channels, and upon further realization that I did not fit in the cinematic world. Fifteen years later, my wishes have been answered. Yet again Jorge Gutierrez, is making it happen on Netflix. He pays special attention to detail, accuracy, portrayals and overall storytelling. He has previously created the magnificent Book of Life, which featured beautiful colors, unique animation, and enchanting music.
All of this and more, has been incorporated into the NEW Netflix series, Maya and the Three. The protagonist Maya, is a “spirited princess with the heart of a warrior [who] embarks on a mission to fulfill an ancient prophecy and save humanity from the wrath of vengeful gods.”
During my interview with Gutierrez, he explained his commitment to creating cinematic masterpieces without limits as,“Well being in this medium, a lot of times we don’t get to see our stories and or hear our stories. Not only as characters but behind the scenes. So from the beginning I wanted to work with talent, and yes, I’m from Mexico, but I wanted talent from ALL of Latin America,” said Gutierrez.
Although, to be clear, his road to success wasn’t easy, as his first day as an animator was a bit unconventional, “Well… I mean I always tell the story of my first day as an animator at Sony. I got yelled at as they told me, Janitorial services were supposed to be here an hour ago. And it’s because animators didn’t look like me. So I said, okay, that’s my first introduction into Hollywood and uh.. I kept working my way through. Ya know, It’s been twenty one years, and or twenty years people were more openly racist I think.”
Gutiérrez prevailed, he excelled, and he has now won over the hearts of millions of Latinos. Netflix and Gutiérrez celebrate the Latinx community, and have even lent over a beautiful, Interactive art experience to Eugene A. Obregon Park. Where children and adults alike can experience the magic experience for free. Bravo!
When I was a kid in the 80’s, I would wake up super early to enjoy a bowl of cornflakes, and sit in front of the tube to watch my favorite cartoons. The one that sticks out most in my memory book is Tom and Jerry. I loved to watch their silly shenanigans and their ongoing feuds.
I was delighted to hear that Warner Bros. had created a NEW live action film staring my two favorite frenemies.
In celebration of the new release, the last couple of days we have baking, breaking piñatas and we even interview the Director, Tim Story. We’ve had a blast, and I am thrilled to share this film with my youngest son Drew.
Tom and Jerry is NOW in select theaters and on HBO Max!
Disclosure: Thank you Warner Bros for partnering with me for the new Tom and Jerry Movie. All opinions are my own.
Watch the trailer here.
Tom & Jerry is an upcoming American live-action/animated comedy film based on the characters of the same name created by William Hanna and Joseph Barbera. The film is directed by Tim Story and written by Kevin Costello. It stars the famous cat and mouse duo of the film, Tom and Jerry.
The mischievous mouse Jerry has taken up residence in New York City’s finest hotel on the eve of “the wedding of the century,” forcing the event’s desperate planner, a young employee named Kayla, to hire an alley cat named Tom to get rid of him. However, chaos ensues with the cat and mouse battle, threatening to destroy her career, the wedding, and possibly the hotel itself, as the chase causes widespread mayhem. But soon, an even bigger problem arises: a diabolically ambitious staffer conspiring against all three of them.
Drew and I got an early screening of the film, and I couldn’t help but to feel a bit nostalgic. Even though it is a live-action film, I appreciate the fact that they kept the integrity and personalities of the original cartoon characters.
Tom a Jerry are hilarious as ever, and are still up to their old tricks. Many of the scenes were action packed, and the comedy kept us in ongoing belly laughs. I haven’t laughed this hard in some time. Tears… AND I loved to see my son Drew enjoying some of my childhood entertainment.
If you are a Tom and Jerry fan, this film is a MUST-SEE!
I do not own this image.
Drew and I spoke to Director, Tim Story about the new film.
My son asked, “What was your favorite scene you created and why?”
Tim: “Since Tom and Jerry always destroy the house in the original cartoon, they had to destroy a room. The most fun was taking what I had grown up watching over and over again, and doing it inside a room.”
I too LOVE this scene! It totally brought me back to the original cartoon.
This film is for the entire family, and I can’t wait for you all to see it!
