Currently in production in Los Angeles and California’s Imperial Valley, the film will star Becky G as Maya Alvarado, the on-again, off-again love interest to Alex Guerrero, played by Carlos Sanson Jr. Tokischa will portray Xochitl Romero, Maya’s fiercely protective best friend.

“I have loved Becky and Tokischa for so long, as artists and as women who have never once asked for permission to be exactly who they are,” Rodriguez said in a statement. “From the very first moment I saw them together, I knew — Maya and Xochitl had found their home. They are a dazzling pair, and watching them light up this set has been incredibly thrilling as a first-time director. I couldn’t have asked for better humans. I’m so proud to have them fighting alongside us.”

House of Guerrero — rooted on the deep history of Latino boxing and its lasting culture — marks Tokischa’s acting debut in a film, while Becky has previously starred in various movies, including Power Rangers (2017) and Blue Beetle (2023).  

Both the Mexican-American pop star and Dominican dembow artist join the cast led by Carlos Sanson Jr. as Alex Guerrero, Rodriguez as his older sister Paloma Guerrero, George Lopez as his father, Alejandro Guerrero, and Rosario Dawson as his mother, Elsa Guerrero.

Carlos Sanson Jr. and Tokischa, as well as producer Scott Budnick (CEO of 1Community), will be discussing House of Guerrero during the “Film and Music” panel at the 2026 Billboard Latin Music Week, set to take place from Oct. 19 to 22 at the Faena Forum in Miami Beach. For tickets and more information, visit the Billboard Latin Music Week website.
