00:00I realized that it's not healthy in terms of craft.
00:04You just accept what you don't polish.
00:08It's unfair. It's not just about money.
00:14The schedule is challenging.
00:18It's hard to choose a project for the simple reason that
00:23I gave up my soul when I was young in this industry.
00:28There are times when you regret what you accept.
00:33I think it's just about time to make a movie again
00:37because it's been 5 years already.
00:40I think that's the point.
00:44Everything is about timing.
00:47When I was offered this movie,
00:50I was about to finish it when I was young.
00:52I just did one project at a time
00:56so that I can focus on one project at a time.
01:00Just to be fair to the producers, the director, and my character,
01:04I want them to pay attention to me
01:07because when I was young,
01:09I was working on 5 projects at the same time
01:12until I didn't know who I really was.
01:15On my first day, I had to ask who I was with,
01:18who my leading man was, who my director was,
01:20what action was this, comedy, or drama.
01:22I realized that it's not healthy
01:25to accept that you're not doing your job right.
01:30It's unfair.
01:31It's not just about money.
01:32That's where I am now, Sam.
01:34Let's make quality projects
01:36because I want my kids to watch this.
01:40I want them to be proud of their mom.
01:42I want them to be proud of my work and my craft.
01:45So, when Espantajo came up,
01:48I just said,
01:50I have to finish this project first.
01:53We just went there because Lucho had a football game.
01:56We just finished that.
01:58Then, when I came back, I was ready.
02:01At least, I was focused.
02:03Then, when I came back, the cast was complete.
02:05I didn't hesitate because
02:07when you have trust in your work,
02:10you just have to go in.
02:11As is, where is now.
02:13This is the horror.
02:14I was really excited to watch
02:16because they love watching horror.
02:18So, our kids are a big factor
02:22in the creation of Espantajo.
02:24As long as their mom is strong,
02:26I want them to experience it.
02:28I'm excited for them to watch it.
