Today we dive into the remarkable journey of a crossover star Mariana Treviño, whose path defies convention and proves that an actor’s career is as personal as it is unpredictable. Mariana shares how her love for the craft—not money or fame—drew her in, from early days in New York to an organic rise to stardom back in Mexico. A breakthrough role in musical theater shifted her mindset from acting for fun to acting for a living. In this episode, she reflects on embracing mistakes in auditions, how “work begets work,” and navigating global representation after A Man Called Otto. Mariana also shares insights from working with icons like Tom Hanks and Owen Wilson, creating intimacy on set, and the challenges of performing in a second language.
