Though there970年 ポルノ映画plenty of miles to go, incredible strides have recently been made in the journey toward a fully representative creative workforce in Hollywood. Just check out the career of Victoria Alonso, the Argentine film producer who has worked behind the scenes at Marvel as an executive producer on almost every single one (!!!) of Marvel’s blockbuster superhero films, including all of our Marvel picks below.

The result of a more reflective production team is more interesting, authentic, and engaging entertainment! We’re living in a golden age, baby! To celebrate, we’re highlighting the amazing movies streaming on Disney+ that were written, directed, or produced by Latina/Latino creators.

We may not talk about Bruno, but we do talk about Encanto,written by Jared Bush and Charise Castro Smith. One of Disney's latest animated films introduces us to the magical Madrigal family, whose special gifts turn out to be burdens as well as blessings. Encanto is a powerful examination of familial bonds and generational trauma, accompanied by gorgeous animation and catchy tunes courtesy of Lin-Manuel Miranda, including "Surface Pressure" and "We Don't Talk About Bruno." — Belen Edwards, Entertainment Reporter *

Directed by Carlos Saldanha, Ferdinandis a heartwarming adaptation of the widely beloved 1930s children’s book of the same name. Ferdinand (a delightful John Cena) is a sweet, flower-loving bull. He doesn’t want to fight in the arena — he wants to sniff carnations and enjoy his life. The bull-fighters, the other bulls, and the world around him, however, have different expectations about what a bull should be. Ferdinandis a fun kids movie with exhilarating chase sequences and lovable characters, but it’s also a thoughtful meditation on pacifism and what it means to be strong.

3. Guardians of the Galaxy

A comedically mismatched group of heroes team up to save the galaxy while the grooviest soundtrack plays in the background? Yup, let's go! Guardians of the Galaxyis the perfect mix of zany, exciting, and funny. While the blockbuster's spacey-retro aesthetic is a blast, its cast (Chris Pratt, Zoe Saldana, Dave Bautista, Vin Diesel, and Bradley Cooper) has the chemistry to keep the momentum going. — Brooke Bajgrowicz, Entertainment Fellow *

In Coco, 12-year-old Miguel tries to get back to his home in Mexico after he, still alive, mistakenly enters the Land of the Dead. Naturally, this setup lends itself to heavy discussions about life and death — andCoco does a lovely job unpacking them. But just because it’s thought-provoking doesn’t mean it’s not full of spirit. The fantasy, written by Adrian Molina, overflows with rich colors and lively songs. What’s not to love about a movie that’s sentimental and delightful? - B.B. *

5. Thor: Ragnarok

Thor: Ragnarokis by far the best of the Thor movies. The superhero comedy — which has the god of thunder attempting to race home to fight against his vengeful sister — features the clever directorial skills of Taika Waititi, a colorful new planet, and a script that's so witty it hurts. Not to mention, Chris Hemsworth's Thor is backed by an all-star cast, including MCU favorites Tom Hiddleston and Mark Ruffalo, along with talents like Cate Blanchett, Jeff Goldblum, and Tessa Thompson. It all works to make this one of the funniest installments in the MCU. All of it. — B.B. *

Black Pantherisn't just another Marvel movie.
