“Growing up, I wanted to speak English. I didn’t like to speak Spanish because kids don’t like to learn another language. My parents spoke to me in English, so that’s what I wanted to speak. When I was a child, I guess I embraced it less, but the older I get, the more I love the fact that I’m from South America and can speak the language and have experienced the beautiful country and understand the hardships happening there now. I feel for that country more than I have ever felt for it before. I’m glad on [The Gifted], I can show a side that I haven’t been able to show in a role before because I get to speak Spanish.” -- Sean Teale
