His arrival in Hollywood is representative.

Huerta, along with another group of actors, is part of the Poder Prieto collective, which seeks to put aside the stereotypes of poverty, crime and violence linked to actors with dark or black complexions and who have historically been perpetrators of a racism that continues to spread in the entertainment industry.

Huerta and Cadena join other Mexican actors who have appeared in superhero performances, such as Salma Hayek, who has expressed emotion when seeing "her dark face" as a representative of a superheroine in the Marvel production,

Eternals

, released last year.

WAKANDA FOREVER.#BlackPanther: Wakanda Forever.
