The award-winning filmmaker and writer Kristian Mercado joins us on McFly's Movie House today! In March 2023, Mercado released his debut feature film, “If You Were the Last,” a sci-fi rom-com starring Anthony Mackie and Zoë Chao (currently available to stream on Peacock). Mercado has made waves in the industry before coming out with his brilliant and heartfelt take on the science fiction genre. Nuevo Rico’s psychedelic cyberpunk short film premiered at 2021's SXSW Festival, where it snagged the Animation Jury Award. Mercado has also directed content for Billie Eilish, Bad Bunny, Awkwafina, Eric Andre, MF DOOM, Taylor Tomlinson, Michael Che, and Hannibal Burress.
Raised between New York's Spanish Harlem and Puerto Rico, Mercado regularly uses his voice in the industry to address systemic oppression, identity, and working-class struggles. With several projects in the works, Marta chats with Kris about “If You Were the Last,” “Nuevo Rico,” the industry itself, upcoming projects, and his illustrious career.
