Hispanics in the entertainment industry have come a long way since the days we were subjected to playing bit parts that were pretty insignificant. Today, Latino actors can be anything they want to be, yet some view stereotypical roles as wrong since we, as a collective, have fought against having to play those roles.

We caught up with Judy Reyes, star of the upcoming Lifetime dramedy Devious Maids to talk about her upcoming role debuting this summer, working alongside fellow Latinas Dania Ramirez, Ana Ortiz, Roselyn Sanchez, and Edy Ganem, and why she is heading down to Miami later this week.
