Guillermo Steps Out Of "The Shadows": An Interview with Harvey Guillén

Off Colour talks with Harvey Guillen from FX's "What We Do In The Shadows" about the enhanced role of his character Guillermo in season 3.

This new interview with Harvey goes into Guillermo’s journey and Harvey’s approach to acting and advocacy. Note: it includes a spoiler for WWDITS season 3 episode 4, The Casino.

Lorenzo: [...] As a member of the Van Helsing family, he’s a fucking badass in his own right. Even before he knew his lineage, he was killing vampires on accident. And now that he knows he is very much born to do this, he still chooses to protect this group of vampires who never respected him. So my question is, did you have any personal experiences to pull from that mirrored this tragically parasitic relationship when you were preparing for this role?

Harvey Guillén: [...] There are tons of things that I can take from him and from my own personal life to put into Guillermo.  It’s also human nature. All of those things that happen to us are what make us stronger. That goes hand in hand with the idea that Guillermo is all of us. We’re cheering for him. We want him to succeed because we see ourselves in him. If he gets slapped in the face, you get mad and want people to stop treating him like this. We’re really rooting for him in the next chapter because he’s starting to come into his own. And he’s a badass now. We’re all cheering for him because it’s us. We want us to come out on top. 

Lorenzo: [...] So, how does it feel to be the first queer Latinx actor nominated for the best supporting actor as a lead character, who proudly says his full Spanish name every time he’s ready to beat some ass? How does that feel?

Harvey Guillén: It feels great! I feel that I get to portray a Latinx queer actor on screen, and, like, I said that what I do for work is entertain. So I love that I get to do that because that opens the door for anyone, which is the best scenario. I can leave the door ajar for someone to come into a space where you’re not typically welcomed if you’re part of a marginalized group, if you’re a minority or if you’re a plus-size person or if you’re queer.

Bridgerton VS. Bollywood: Regency Romance with a Desi Twist

Bridgerton vs Bollywood: read on to hear how two brown women (Medha and Angelitha) felt about seeing a desi twist brought to life in a regency romance!

This article helped me reframe the subjectively bothersome aspects (particularly the love triangle) of season 2 in a more positive light.  Maybe I’ll rewatch and look out for some of the things mentioned.

My one brain cell took all the woman loving energy I have within me, all the vitamin c in my bloodstream, and all my love for rocks and poured it into this one gorgeous tangerine.
