Joining Milla Jovovich, Ali Larter, and Iain Glen, the Cuban-American actor made the announcement regarding his latest role via his Instagram by posting an image created by his fans.

Along with his Instagram post, the actor who has been referred to as the “Latino Brad Pitt” thanked both his enduring fans as well as the Latino community for being huge supporters of his.

“I chose this photo that was done by one of you guys with the purpose of showing you guys how thankful I am for every single one of you. The name that you see on that picture became known not just because of my efforts and dedication,” said the actor in his post, referring to his fans being as being huge pillars for his success.

Within the post he dedicated to his fans, Levy described how his past projects in such films like The Single Moms Club & Addicted; to telenovelas like Cuidado con el ángel and La Tempestad; as well as his stint on Dancing with the Stars would not have happened for him had it not been to the strong support of his fans and members of the Latino community.

“I feel really lucky to receive love from not only the Latinos but from so many of you from around the world that take the time to write me a message, the actor wrote.

Levy also expressed his appreciation for how during a time where Latinos remained supportive of each other and show a sense of unity since the community currently faces harsh criticism in the United States thanks to the likes of Donald Trump and those who do not express the same sentiment regarding Latinos.
