We had the good fortune of connecting with Cesar D La Torre and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Cesar, how has your background shaped the person you are today?
I was born in Maracaibo Venezuela, I think who I am today it is because of my past and my background, when you have a hard past you appreciate more things you achieve, you become stronger everyday and that is what happened to me , I think I am not the same, I am stronger now, My past did such an impact on me that I fight harder to reach my goals and dreams, and never give up.

Let’s talk shop? Tell us more about your career, what can you share with our community?
What set me apart from others is that I am a person that likes to treat everybody well no matter economic status or situation also what sets me apart from others is being a friendly Latin guy that speaks several languages. Italian, Spanish, French, and Romanian, I am a martial artist Black belt in Karate. Definitely, it has been a hard road, most of the struggles at the beginning of my career in the US was the language, I couldn’t understand well English, and I couldn’t understand audition directions, so I started watching a lot of movies to be able to learn English, and after I learned it I land my 1st role on an indie movie, when I came to the US I came with 50 $, without knowing anyone, so it was hard because to be a foreigner without money and without speaking English and not having any friends, it was definitely a challenge to survive in LA but I enjoy the journey of being an Actor, for me the art of acting is beautiful, I love to act and play different roles, for me it is the most gifted talent that I can Have, being and feel other characters in my body, portraying other characters feels incredible, and every one of them leaves something positive on me, I can tell you, I can learn always something for my personal life with every character I have done. My career spans both English and Spanish markets, currently, I Have worked on movies like Angry Neighbors Distributed by Lionsgate with legendary Academy Award Actors Frank Langella, and Stockard Channing, and the action film Muna centered around a confrontation between Italian and Nigerian mafia gangs. The film Heavy Duty Lovers (Amores de Peso) is a romantic comedy that stars Eric Roberts. The film Misfits (Krista Allen, Leigh-Allyn Baker), is about four broke and single geeks who hire a life coach to help turn their lives around, Black Easter a Sci-Fi Movie about a group of young geniuses who accidentally stumble upon a secret terrorist plot to create a time machine to go back in time and change history available on Amazon prime Video and other Digital Platforms.

I have been part of some noteworthy projects. like Tecate with Bruce Willis, also I have made guest appearances on the TBS sitcom Ground Floor (Skylar Astin, Briga Heelan, John C McGinley), TV Land’s Funny-or-Die-based series Throwing Shade (Will Ferrell), and Logo TV’s DTLA (Melanie Griffith, Sandra Bernhard, Jeremy Jackson). Also, I was co-director/writer, as well as an actor in the short film The Florist, which has been nominated for ‘Best Dramatic Short’ and ‘Best Short Film’ at the Burbank International Film Festival.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
I would take my friend on a Road trip to different places I love, one of my favorites is Manhattan Beach and Yosemite Park, Malibu Beach, and San Francisco, also I love Catalina Island. I would go to eat in Lala’s restaurant for a weekend, and drink wine in Santa barbara. and some Sushi at Hiroyuki.

Shoutout is all about shouting out others who you feel deserve additional recognition and exposure. Who would you like to shoutout?
I think to my mother who has always been supportive, and she believed in me from the beginning of my career. she gave me a great education and good habits for me to be the person I am today.
