First official still of Kate del Castillo as Mousey



Kate del Castillo will be seen soon in one of the most striking performances she has done. Mexican actress becomes Mousey, a transsexual who controls one of the sections of the Central Jail LA County for men, as part of the film drama K-11.

Under the direction of Jules Stewart, Del Castillo develops a character with a strong physical connotation, it takes a lot of skin show. With an air of exhibitionism that is evident in the characterization, the actress makes a display of attitudes towards situations they want to raise the thrust of the story: the politics of race and gender identity within this prison.

The plot follows Saxx Raymond Jr., a record producer who loses consciousness after using drugs and when he wakes is enclosed in K-11, the unit of the prison reserved for homosexuals and transsexuals, for their safety, need to be segregated . And that's where you have to deal with Mousey, who is in control of the area.

Del Castillo worked last summer at the filming of this movie whose premiere is scheduled for the last quarter of this year. As distinctive character, the actress looks in some scenes of platform heels made
​​with canned meat and always on her left wrist, has a band that says Julio, a name that reveals the masculine identity she left behind.

Old article on Luis Moncada's journey to appearing on 'Breaking Bad'





From prison to 'Breaking Bad's' set

Luis Moncada did time, then got a job as a security guard on a movie shoot. And before he knew it, he was on ‘Breaking Bad.’

Every time Luis Moncada blinks, he curses, thanks to the unprintable expletive tattooed onto his eyelids at age 18.

A gang member at the time, he was convinced he wouldn't make it to 21 and wanted to deliver this angry message to the world when he was gone.

Fourteen years later, Moncada is telling a different kind of story with his eyes. He and his brother Daniel have recurring roles on AMC's "Breaking Bad," where they've spent much of this third season playing silent-assassin types — cartel members from Mexico who've come to kill Walter White ( Bryan Cranston).

For Luis, now 32, it's one of a long string of acting gigs that began in 2002, when a director spotted his tattoos and asked if he wanted to be in a film. For Daniel, 30, it's his first acting role.

"I tell my wife all the time, ‘Wow, look at how far we've come,' " Luis Moncada says, with Daniel sitting nearby. "

The journey included a few key stops, such as Luis' prison sentence for driving a stolen vehicle. "I'm not thankful I went to prison," he says, "but after going to prison, that's when you really, really, really think, ‘Wow, what a waste of time.' I had to change."

Also crucial was a beautiful girl who happened to be a parole officer ("No, not my parole officer," Luis notes with a smile), along with a move away from the Hollywood and Echo Park neighborhoods where Luis and Daniel sometimes associated with the wrong crowd. Leaving his gang on good terms, he moved with his brother to Studio City. Luis married the parole officer and they have a 2-year-old son; Daniel lives in their spare bedroom.

The acting career was an accident. Luis was a security guard on the set of a small film, "El Padrino," when director Damian Chapa spotted the gang tattoo around his neck and asked if he wanted to play Jennifer Tilly's bodyguard. "I was getting off in 10 minutes so I said, ‘You know what, sir? No thank you. I don't know if I can do eight or 12 more hours."

But Manuel Jimenez stood nearby. Jimenez is an ex-con who created Suspect Entertainment, a talent agency that turns reformed gang members into actors; Hollywood often utilizes Suspect when it needs to fill the role of a bad guy.

Jimenez convinced Luis to take the role and then signed him to the agency. A slew of other parts followed — "Gangbanger," "Carjacker," "Thug," his IMDB credits read. "Would you be cool with me if you saw me in an alley?" he asks. "No, you'd probably be scared of me. So I'm the bad guy. For now."

And then came "Breaking Bad." "We knew we were going to have these very scary, very silent Mexican cartel assassins in our third season, so we put the word out and needed to find these guys," says Vince Gilligan, the show's creator. "We needed a couple of guys who were very charismatic, whose expressions and eyes told us a lot."
