Eva Longoria is a part of the “Latinas Who Lunch” community, designed for Latinas in Hollywood to come together and talk not only about their struggles but also how they can support each other and future generations. Longoria may have had to compete with many other women for “the one Latina role” in scripts her agents sent her early in her career, but now she is determined to prove there is more than enough room at the table for everyone. While “Latinas Who Lunch” was started just last year, the multi-hyphenate Longoria, who will receive a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame April 16, has been fighting this fight for years.

It's only been about three weeks since Antonio Banderas finished shooting Genius, National Geographic's anthology series in which he stars as artist Pablo Picasso.

 Writer/director, Kase Pena is accepted into "The Ryan Murphy Half Initiative Television Director Mentoring Program."  The program mentors emerging women and minority directors through pre-production and post-production along with offering a significant stipend for their commitment. These funds provided critical stipends for travel, lodging, and daycare for working mothers, allowing them to meet personal financial obligations while gaining unprecedented access to further education and career growth. Kase Pena has also been previously featured in our #WeAreInclusion campaign.
