Got to work with some legends directing I Am Raquel Welch (Tonight March 8 – 8 pm ET/PT @thecw ) and @ederbez was one of them. One of the most influential and prolific Latin American actor / director / producers in the world, I first saw him in the Oscar-nominated CODA and have been struck by his range since delving into more of his work. Comedy, drama, he can do it all. He showed up for this doc to honour Raquel, who he sought out for his film How To Be A Latin Lover, and his love, and care for her not just as an icon, but a human being who endured so much, was beautifully apparent. Reposting his words below: Posted @withregram • @ederbez I had the opportunity to be part of an incredible project that captures the journey of a true legend. Raquel Welch broke barriers and redefined what it means to be a star. From One Million Years B.C. to 100 Rifles and beyond, her legacy lives on. Directed by @thatoliviacheng and produced by @network_entertainment, I AM RAQUEL WELCH is a documentary that celebrates her extraordinary career. Don’t miss it on March 8 on @thecw. #IAmRaquelWelch Tuve la oportunidad de formar parte de un gran proyecto que retrata la trayectoria de una verdadera leyenda. Raquel Welch rompió esquemas y redefinió lo que significa ser una estrella. Desde One Million Years B.C. hasta 100 Rifles y más allá, su legado sigue vivo. Dirigido por @thatoliviacheng y producido por @network_entertainment, I AM RAQUEL WELCH es un documental que celebra su increíble trayectoria. No se lo pierdan el 8 de marzo en @thecw. #iamraquelwelch #raquel #raquelwelch #raquelwelchwigs #eugenioderbez #latinoamérica #latinoamerica

Whoa! Thanks @people for the coverage of I Am Raquel Welch airing tonight, March 8th, just in time for International Women’s Day (8 pm ET/ PT). I pulled a lot of themes from Raquel’s memoir “Beyond the Cleavage”. The “stealth Latina” aspect of her life and career is one of many themes delved into for this documentary. She also spoke of her fraught relationship to the Second Wave Feminist movement in the 70’s as women were demanding financial and legal protections against issues like domestic violence. And having one of the most (in)famous interracial kisses with Black actor, Jim Brown, during the height of the civil rights movement. Would love for you to tune in tonight, 8 pm ET/ PT on @thecw to learn more about Raquel Welch and why she’s an absolute icon. ❤️
