‘Black Panther: Wakanda Forever’ star is relieved he’s no longer typecast as the bad guy

Tenoch Huerta opened up about how the European beauty standards negatively affected his acting career early on in Mexico before landing his starring role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever. Huerta plays Namor the Sub-Mariner, a leader trying to protect his people and the kingdom of Talokan from the surface world after the government attempted to look for vibranium near their home. 

During a Dec. 20 interview with Inverse magazine, Huerta revealed that because his darker complexion was not considered desirable to the Mexican market, he was subjected to playing unfavorable characters like a rapist or a robber in various projects. The 41-year-old told the publication while calling out the Mexican representation for being “ugly” towards darker-toned individuals.
