Now that Emilio Estefan has produced everyone from Jon Secada to Shakira, he wants to tackle bigger talapia.
”I’d love to get into films now. I want to do with movies the same thing I did with music: To help develop a new Hollywood for Latins to make Anglo films with a little Latin flavor.When you’ve had a 30-year career, it’s always great to find a new beginning. To do something new, especially something I feel so deeply, is really exciting.”

Since his and Gloria’s documentary 90 Milas got such a great reception at the Dubai Film Festival and a standing ovation at Little Havana, he’s convinced that his next career arch is in on the big screen:
‘This is a very special movie because I want to share the legacy of all these amazing musicians with future generations, and some of them aren’t going to be around very much longer. I wanted to pay tribute to the pain and sacrifice so many people have suffered, being immigrants in this country, in order to keep that sound alive. Sometimes people do things just because they love them, and I wanted to commemorate that.”
Latinos are doing it for themselves, thank you very much.
