Hold up… now I’m wondering “who isn’t in Eva Mendes’ new film, Girl in Progress?!”

Espinoza Paz also stars with Eva Mendes.

As I’ve written before, the movie itself looks very interesting.  They’ve got a pretty stellar cast, a good storyline, and now, even El Cantautor del Pueblo himself, Mr. Espinoza Paz.  I’m not entirely sure, but this may also be his debut on the silver screen as well.  De cualquier manera, it was something about the movie that definitely caught my attention.  I thought Jenni Rivera was the only Regional Mexican musician going all Hollywood on us.

She’s starring as an incarcerated mother in the forthcoming film Filly Brown alongside Edward James OlmosEspinoza, meanwhile, is playing Eugenio Derbez’s cousin in the follow up to Under The Same Moon for director Patricia RiggenHe’s also on the movie’s soundtrack with the duet Así o Más, which also features María Jóse.

Now him being in the movie doesn’t really make a difference to me either way.  I was going to watch Girl in Progress on it’s opening day – May 11 – anyway, but it might for some.  Sea lo que sea, this is his new song for the film:
