Gael Garcia Bernal’s (super hot) half-brother, Darío Yazbek Bernal, is following in his footsteps. The 19 year old fetus with creepy fans has been cast in his first movie, Daniel y Ana, a film about the kidnapping of a pair of siblings. Comedy blockbuster! Intriguing. Is a relationship with a smug indie actress soon to follow? Says the beneficiary of nepotism:

“He already knew I had begun to work on this film, and wished me luck. He told me, ‘Go and learn.’ And that’s what I’m doing - learning. It was interesting because I’d never done any work like this and, all of a sudden, here’s this movie.”

Yes, how very sudden and unexpected, to be involved in a project that includes people your older, famous brother has worked with in the past:

Budgeted at $1.5 million, somber tale is the directorial feature debut of Michel Franco and stars newcomers Dario Yazbek Bernal, the younger brother of “Father Amaro” lead Gael Garcia Bernal, and Marimar Vega, daughter of veteran thesp Gonzalo Vega.

Cinematographer Chuy Chavez’s credits include the visually arresting “Me and You and Everyone We Know.” Spain’s Morena Films co- produces pic.

Yeah. We’re totally seeing this. Even Chuy Chavez’s involvement in OverlyPreciousTweeFest: The Movie, won’t keep us from Netflixing this eventually.
