Bad Bunny Lands First-Ever Leading Film Role + Set To Star In Historical Drama ‘Porto Rico’

After a phenomenal year filled with record-breaking performances and headline-making moments, Bad Bunny is leveling up yet again, this time with his first-ever leading role in a major motion picture.

The global superstar will headline “Porto Rico,” a historical drama centered on the island’s complex past.

The film marks the feature directorial debut of René Pérez Joglar, and boasts an impressive cast including Viggo Mortensen, Edward Norton, and Javier Bardem. Oscar-winning filmmaker Alejandro G. Iñárritu is attached as executive producer.

“I have dreamed of making a film about my country since I was a child. Puerto Rico’s true history has always been surrounded by controversy,” Pérez Joglar shared. “This film is a reaffirmation of who we are — told with the intensity and honesty that our history deserves.”
