Narcos: Mexico star Diego Luna refused to meet with the real-life narco he plays

Al Arabiya’s William Mullally sits with Diego Luna, who stars as Felix Gallardo in the new Netflix show Narcos: Mexico, to discuss the gifts they hid for fans of the original show (spoiler alert!), his favorite scene to film, and how he played a bad guy.
Narcos: Mexico launches in the Middle East 16 November only on Netflix.

B. G. Some viewers don't understand the magnitude of these characters and how larger than life they were when they reigned in the drug trade. Amado Carillo learned the ropes from Acosta who was a monster in the drug trade in the Ojinaga border and also set him up to be taken down by Calderoni. Amado Carillo took the business to another level and displaced the Colombian cartels and even had the audacity to jack12 tons from Escobar just because. Growing up in L.A. in the early 90s though the word in the streets was that Manuel Salcido Uzeta was the big dawg. Under him were other bosses such as Emelio and Juan Quintero Payan and Ines Calderon Quintero and el Chapo Caro and El Azul. He was the quintessential Mexican trafficker and he was no joke. I remember when he was ambushed and shot 90 times while he was riding in Zapopan and he tried fighting back even throwing an defective grenade that failed to activate. His rise to the top is the stuff of movies. Where I grew up there lived people that were from San Ignacio and told stories about him; many hated him and others respected him, but all agreed that el Cochi was and always has been the baddest mofo of them all along with Aviles so much so that he avenged Aviles.

[@MadHatter1337]

That would probably be season 2 or 3 and then El Chapo would be next since they already introduced him...

[@Iroon2007]

@@MadHatter1337 I would love to see also about Sandra Avila Beltran...La.reina del.Sur.... .

[@WretchedDrummer]

Iroon2007 There's already one it's called Queen of the South it's on USA channel. I think Narcos Mexico season 3 will be Chapo rising to power

[@elcdizzle9733]

This series was amazing there’s a lot of people that said they didn’t really dig it compared to the past 3 seasons honestly narcos is just getting started on the Mexican cartels just watch till you see all the crazy shit that went down with all the cartels “ cartel Arellano Felix Sinaloa cartel the gulf cartel the Leyva Beltran cartel los zetas shit gonna be lit

[@Charles-mi8qi]

I don't get how they're gonna cover the Los Zetas... lots of violence gonna be going down in that

[@fortyforfree]

Yea, they can get at least three more seasons of narcos with mexico. Hope they do

[@12OunceProphet]

@@fortyforfree they can get wayyyy more seasons. Mexico has had way more cartels and has alot of history with that kinda thing.

[@jorgemalfavon9535]

The Arellano cartel was the most powerful cartel in the 90

[@xexclusivex-377]

But I think narcos only based on like big drug lords like next I think it’s gonna be Senor de los cielos or chapo.

Diego is an amazing actor, the way he portrayed Felix Gallardo was amazing, incredible swag

[@lisenormann4102]

Diego was my first crush, watching him in Dirty Dancing 2 as a 12 year old girl, I fell completely in love, haha.

[@morrismiller]

Watch his movie "y tu mamá también"

[@MojoSojoJojo]

YO! SAAAAAAME! I used to watch that movie everyday after school in middle school! I was IN LOVE with this man! P.S. that movie does not get enough love. Choreography was tight, got a lil history lesson with your romance, and that soundtrack?! Countless bops!

[@carmenbiondo9334]

So I was not the only one 😅

[@Quietsloths]

How dare you mentioned that movie.. that shit still makes me sad

That was a great interview

[@YourMajesty069]

Great Interview. Great guy 👍🏼

[@leonremedy8047]

Big fan of Narcos, even more so about Narcos Mexico. Love the story and cinematography. I feel Diego Luna to be a well rounded actor who has evolved throughout the years from the beginning making telenovelas. I would like to see his talent more in today's television/cinema. He has much to contribute. Great job Narcos team!

[@SS-yv9cq]

My OCD is cured to finally see him speak in English, love you Félix (Diego)

[@lindsay3314]

Diego Luna, loved him since dirty dancing. Loved his take on Félix in Narcos. Brilliant and intelligent actor☺️

[@adz8289]

His English is absolutely perfect wow wasn’t expecting that. Fantastic actor

[@doctorchokolate]

Orgullo mexicano.. He ves espectacular Diego an Narcos.

[@waseemsultan7076]

[@adrii8464]
