Bad Bunny is seemingly giving an update on his career in Hollywood, revealing that he might not be starring in the highly anticipated Spider-Man spin-off ‘El Muerto,’ after it was announced that he would be making history in the first Latino-led Marvel film.

During his recent interview with TIME Magazine, the actor revealed that he had been “losing… opportunities,” however it is unclear if he was talking about the Sony-Marvel film. “I didn’t care about [learning] English,” he added. “But now, I think I care.”
