Danny Ramirez Named Part of Latinos Leading New Generation of Hollywood

Photoshoots > Outtakes > Session 031

VOGUE MEXICO x LATINOAMERICAIn celebration of Vogue World: Hollywood, we bring together the Latino faces shaping the direction of the U.S. film industry.
Read carefully because this is the generation of Latinos setting the tone in Hollywood. Their purpose? To generate impactful, community-based projects. Their resolution? The time has been and will continue to be now.

Danny Ramirez wanted to be a professional athlete, but instead, he became an elite naval aviator in Top Gun: Maverick , alongside Tom Cruise. He then entered the Marvel Cinematic Universe as Joaquín Torres in The Falcon and the Winter Soldier , then brought that character to Captain America: Brave New World , making him the saga’s first Avenger. He also became a survivor of an apocalyptic world in The Last of Us . This year, he also delved into the musical universe of Colombian singer Karol G, starring in the music video for Papasito from her album Tropicoqueta . Born in Chicago, Ramírez has pursued his dreams, but more importantly, he’s built them.

This year, we saw him walk in the Willy Chavarría show during Paris Men’s Fashion Week, and this is just the beginning. Next up, Ramírez will star in and direct Baton , a soccer drama produced by David Beckham. It seems that the projects the actor takes on build on his vision of continuing to open doors for Latinos. “For me, Latinidad is a mosaic: fragments of family, culture, joy, and struggle that come together to create something greater. My hope is that, as Hollywood grows and embraces the full spectrum of our identity, we reach that moment with excellence and take ownership of the stories we choose to tell, not falling into old archetypes or stories shaped by the fear of expectations, but telling the ones we want, the way we want,” he states in this portfolio.
