He is accompanied in the film by the French-Argentine Berenice Bejo and the Norwegian Renate Reinsve, who became known at the 2021 Cannes Film Festival, where she won the award for best actress.
“When I started making movies, or in a way when movies found me, some things happened very quickly,” the actor told AFPspeaking in English, during a meeting with the press in Berlin.
Having done theater is “something important if you don’t want to lose your mind” in the world of stars, he said.
“You can make mistakes. Theater is regarding trying things that sometimes go well and sometimes not. “You don’t always achieve nirvana.”
The actor, a favorite of international filmmakers, said that he has talked regarding it on the set with Reinsve, who arrived at the current Berlinale with two films in English: Another End y A Different Mana comedy regarding deformity and beauty.

Reinsve has also done theater. And “we have a lot in common,” said the Mexican actor. “Suddenly, cinema came to us,” added García Bernal, who admits that he has taken some breaks in his career.
“A few years ago it stopped giving me pleasure,” until the filming of the 2013 film Noby Pablo Larraín and nominated for an Oscar, regarding the resistance to the Chilean dictator Augusto Pinochet, who restored his “joy and desire.”
“A good movie lasts a lot of years, compared to a lot of bad movies,” he joked. In short: “You shouldn’t worry too much regarding the ups and downs.”
