Melissa de la Cruz was born in Manila, Philippines and says that she has wanted to be an author since she was eleven years old. She immigrated to the United States with her family when she was 13, in 1985. The family settled in San Francisco, where she graduated from Convent of the Sacred Heart High School.

That’s the year her family immigrated to San Francisco from Manila, Philippines. She spoke English, but the culture shock of moving to another country in the middle of her teens was a “weird adventure.” De la Cruz now lives in L.A. with her husband and 10-year-old daughter.

Ernesto de la Cruz, played by Benjamin Bratt, was inspired by a number of popular Mexican musicians Pedro Infante, Jorge Negrete and Vicente Fernández — two of whom actually make guest appearances in the film as skeletons.

However, it was revealed that Ernesto murdered Héctor, who actually wrote all his songs, for betrayal and stole all of his songs and compositions to gain fame and fortune, thus making him indirectly responsible for the Riveras hating music and Héctor in the first place (except for Miguel and Coco).

It will take place 6 years after the first film, It focuses on a now 18 year old Miguel, who now graduated from High School, and is a bit down lately due to Mamá Coco’s death in the first film, so he goes back to the Land Of The Dead, to see his Mama Coco again. This sequel will be released on March 8, 2019.

Héctor Rivera is Miguel’s great-great grandfather and Imelda’s husband from the movie Coco, as well as Mama Coco’s father. As he was being forgotten by Mama Coco, he needs help from Miguel to put his photo on the altar in order to be remembered, and also helps Miguel to escape the Land of the Dead.

I think it’s based on how the living people remember them. All the older relatives are only remembered from younger pictures, so that’s why they appear younger. Coco, recently deceased, is remembered as her older self. Even though there is the picture of her as a child, her living family knows her as older Coco.

In the movie Coco, a person in the land of the dead will fade away completely when no one from the land of the living remembers him anymore, and that is how Héctor’s friend Chicharrón faded away, because there was not one person left in the land of the living who remembered him.

As Héctor comforts a hurt Miguel, who was devastated by Ernesto’s betrayal and his own choice to leave his family, he starts to fade. Héctor explains it’s because his daughter, the reason he was trying to cross the bridge, is forgetting him and laments about not being able to apologize to his daughter Coco.

For generations, the Riveras have banned music because they believe they’ve been cursed by it; as their family history goes, Miguel’s great-great-grandfather abandoned his wife decades earlier to follow his own dreams of performing, leaving Imelda (Miguel’s great-great-grandmother) to take control as the matriarch of …

In Spanish, “Un Poco Loco” translates to “A Little Crazy.” The song was originally written by Héctor as a song for Imelda.

1 Héctor Didn’t Have His Gold Tooth While Alive When Héctor was alive he didn’t have a gold tooth, but in the Land of the Dead, he does have a gold tooth which means that something happened to him in the afterlife and he had to get some dentistry work done.

Because he is being forgotten so his bones are breaking down, your can see part of his leg is cracked and bound up. Later in the movie when he is remembered by his family once again he is all polished and his clothes and bones are no longer torn/broken.

During Miguel’s journey in the Land of the Dead, he met a skeleton named Hector, who claims that he was friends with Ernesto de la Cruz, Miguel’s idol. And they exchanged a deal: if Miguel gets to meet Ernesto, he would get Hector’s portrait attached on the ofrenda so he could cross to the Land of the Living.
