    What a humble person. I didn’t know the real actor was such a based guy, def my favorite character of the series so far. The mission when he mentions keeping his family secret for their protection really showed the reality of people who fight against these cartels. Even in their own countries they may never feel safe again. Love the CoD MW series, need more of it beyond MW3 for sure.

      He's not "Spanish" he's cuban.. and latino it's not a race. 🙄

      Do you think Latinos need a character to be Latino in order to relate to, or enjoy, the character? That idea in and of itself is racist.

    Unlike most of these people in the lime light I never noticed or cared about who was in a film or video game. More people should be like Morgan Freeman, stop talking about race. Just make good entertainment without pushing politics or race. That is all we want.

      That's true, and it's funny too because there's no mexican/latino race. I hate to break it but according to science, not politics he is just a white dude. No one in Europe calls Italians, Romanians, or Spanish people different races. The person making that conclusion here would be laughed at.

    Who cares if he is the first latino? Tf did they forget other games exist? He is a good actor and that's that.

    I never cared for the races of characters. The only thing I cared about is whether they're organic, are the bad-ass, and are they inspiring?
