Is there a 'who should play this character?' thread, and is it necro?

So Spanish does not equal Hispanic?

It's both complicated and political, so I won't go to deep into the explanation, but "yes and no". In the US, "hispanic origin" definition ranges from "only former Spanish colonies" (note this excludes not just Spain, but Brasil too) to "everywhere south of the US plus Spain and Portugal".

Banderas is both white and hispanic. Which is why when the Oscars tried to count him as a PoC, it went down badly. But I see no reason why he wouldn't fit Julio's character.
