Imagine stepping into the shoes of Roberto Duran, one of the most legendary boxers in the history of the sport, and definitely the most legendary Latin American boxer, and then having ‘Raging Bull’ in my corner. I mean, imagine that? Just having Robert De Niro to play the trainer in the movie, that was fantastic. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
I’m definitely interested in exploring human contradictions. Contradictions are what make us human – it’s what defines us as human beings. Contradictions are what make characters interesting, and I’ve been lucky to be presented with characters who have a lot of contradictions. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
Whenever someone comes up to me saying, ‘I saw you in ‘Carlos’ and then I saw the rest of your movies,’ for me, it’s an expression that we might be doing something well. So my life hasn’t changed that much. I just try not to go to very crowded places if I’m not in the mood. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
There’s no way to reconstruct reality. It happened once. What you do is reinterpret and recreate. Even if you have the person who lived it and did it next to you, the event happened just once. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote

I have a huge promotion: you’ve heard from me on ‘Vantage Point’ and also with ‘Cyrano Fernandez’ – that is a Venezuelan movie that I star in and co-produced, and it’s based on the romance of Cyrano de Bergerac. And it’s set in a Venezuelan slum. It’s a free version of the French play. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
I think that the ‘Bourne Trilogy,’ it’s definitely redefined the genre and took it to a new level. It was really great to be part of that experience. It is a very smart movie and a very smart script, great director, and great, you know, fellow actors. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
I’m just the second Bodhi. I think there will be more. I have the feeling this is only the first re-imagination of ‘Point Break’. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
Feminism is nothing but equality, and actually, feminism benefits men because it liberates us and it releases us from many stigmas imposed by the macho culture on us as well. So if more of us could understand that it’s nothing but equality, I think many agendas in terms of equality would have advanced quicker because it really helps us as well. Edgar Ramirez Read Quote
