Alas, a win for the community! 🤩
Now it’s clear that we still have a ways to go with LatinX representation within the industry, BUT let’s do our part in giving our support to the projects that DO make it through. This Fool is a comedy that spotlights Latinos with a intergenerational Mexican American family. Felicitationes to co-creator @chrisestradacomic for getting his story told and creating more opportunities for our community. Premiering on Hulu tomorrow! Familia, the trailer looks hilarious!
Big thanks to Hulu for supporting LatinX stories and voices. See what Hulu had to say below.
“Last year, Hulu’s head of scripted content Jordan Helman told Deadline that This Fool was part of a strategy to beef up its Latinx programming. “[We want] to ensure that we are reflecting our programming to the nature of the country,” he said. “Breaking out new and distinct voices continues to be a hallmark of Hulu Original programming, and we are incredibly excited to add Chris Estrada to our roster of multi-hyphenate creators and to bring This Fool to our viewers,” added Craig Erwich, President Hulu Originals and ABC Entertainment.”

& I think it’s important to note that this is more than just the typical “latino gang story” that we’ve seen Hollywood do time after time. Chris Estrada drew from his own life experiences when writing this series and typically the main problem with this sort of content is that it’s usually not written by a Latino and therefore representation is not always accurate. In this case, it is. Moreover, this series is so much more than what meets the eye. Reviews are already coming through raving about what a fresh perspective This Fool brings with its writing, cast, and directing style. So, tune in mañana!
