Sebastian Chacon Announces Debut Film Hermanos Through Bravado Pictures: A Raw, Intimate Story of Brotherhood and Latinidad
New York, US, 12th May 2025, ZEX PR WIRE, Actor Sebastian Chacon is making his directorial and screenwriting debut with Hermanos, a deeply personal film produced under his newly launched production banner, Bravado Pictures. Known for his memorable role as Warren Rojas in Amazon Prime’s Daisy Jones and the Six, Chacon now steps behind the camera to craft an original narrative that speaks directly to his community, culture, and upbringing. Based on a true story, Hermanos centers on the lives of two Ecuadorian-American brothers in Brooklyn whose lives are upended by a violent hate crime. In the film, we watch them navigate identity, loyalty, and the survivor’s guilt that comes with enduring unspeakable tragedy.
“This is a story I’ve wanted to tell for a long time, but I haven’t known how.” says Chacon. “It is a true story that I want to highlight now more than ever; it shows how violence and hardship can test the bonds of brotherhood and family.”
A Personal Story, Told with Grit and Heart
Hermanos draws heavily from Chacon’s own life—growing up in an Ecuadorian/Colombian family in New York City, surrounded by sounds, textures, and tensions unique to the immigrant experience. But Chacon is quick to clarify that the film isn’t about immigration or hardship. It’s about people. Real people, with humor, pride, flaws, and resilience. “This isn’t trauma porn. It’s not about proving our worth through struggle,” Chacon explains. “It’s about showing us as we are—funny, loud, vulnerable, complicated. These characters are layered. They mess up. They make up. They survive. And they love each other, even if they don’t say it out loud.” Chacon wrote the screenplay and refined it with the help of his brothers, who also serve as collaborators and producers on the project.
The Launch of Bravado Pictures
To produce Hermanos on their own terms, Chacon and his brothers, Anthony and Kevin Chacon, co-founded Bravado Pictures, a new, independent film production company dedicated to amplifying stories from underrepresented voices. Hermanos marks the first project from the company and sets the tone for its creative vision.
“There’s a lot of talk in Hollywood about inclusion, but rarely do we get control over how our stories are told,” Chacon says. “Bravado is our answer to that. We’re tired of asking for permission, and tired of shaping our narratives to fit what people identify as “Latino stories””. Bravado Pictures is intentionally structured to operate outside traditional studio systems. The production will prioritize hiring Latino and BIPOC creatives both on screen and behind the scenes. From casting to costume to camera work, their productions will be shaped by artists with lived experience in the communities it represents.
The company also plans to work with youth mentorship programs and local talent pipelines to offer training and entry points for aspiring filmmakers from marginalized backgrounds. “It’s not just about this one movie,” Chacon notes. “It’s about creating pathways for the next generation of storytellers.”
A Brooklyn Film, Through and Through
Hermanos will be shot entirely on location in Brooklyn, capturing the borough’s energy, grit, and character in every frame. Chacon insists the setting is not just a backdrop—it’s a co- star. “Brooklyn is part of the DNA of this film,” he says. “We’re not dressing up some Hollywood lot to look like Bushwick. We’re shooting on the block, in real locations that hold personal history.”
The film’s authenticity is core to its aesthetic and emotional impact. From the language spoken to the music played, every detail in Hermanos is carefully curated to reflect the lived realities of its characters. “We’re not interested in polished or sanitized. We want real,” says Chacon.
Independent and Community-Driven
While many debut films seek major studio backing, Hermanos will be financed and produced independently. Chacon and his team are raising funds through private investors, grassroots support, and partnerships with local arts organizations committed to diversity in media.
Bravado Pictures is also working with neighborhood businesses, artists, and vendors to build a production ecosystem that uplifts the very people it represents. The goal is to ensure that the impact of Hermanos extends beyond the screen and into the lives of those involved in
bringing it to life.
A Defining Moment in Chacon’s Career
Chacon’s pivot to filmmaking is a bold step, but one that feels aligned with the arc of his career thus far. His portrayal of Warren Rojas in Daisy Jones and the Six was a standout performance, not least because he insisted on changing the character’s name and backstory
to better reflect his own Latino identity. “I’m always looking for ways to bring my culture into the work I do,” he says. “But eventually I realized that if I really wanted to see our stories told right, I’d have to be the one writing them.”
With Hermanos, Chacon is not only writing them—he’s directing, producing, and building the infrastructure to keep telling them for years to come.
What’s Next for Hermanos
Pre-production for Hermanos is currently underway, with casting announcements and behind-the-scenes previews expected later this year. The film is slated to begin shooting in 2025, with plans to premiere at a major independent film festival upon completion. “We’re not just making a movie,” Chacon says. “We’re making a mark— Hermanos is a taste of what we’re about as a team, and a precursor to the stories we want to tell.”
Final Thoughts
Sebastian Chacon is proving that authenticity and ambition are not mutually exclusive. WithHermanos, he’s not just stepping into a new creative role—he’s launching a culturalmovement that centers family, brotherhood, and community with power and precision.

“As the bull market approaches, which projects will lead the new wave?”
From mid-2025, the crypto market is expected to enter a new bullish cycle, fueled by the effects of the Bitcoin halving and inflows from ETF-related capital. Given that previous bull runs occurred within 12 to 18 months following each of the past three halvings, industry experts and investment firms predict that the next major market rally will begin around mid-2025.
As the macro environment shifts, investor attention is turning from mere price speculation to projects with real utility, solid technology, and scalable ecosystems. With the acceleration of Web3 adoption, real-use case crypto projects are emerging as the key themes of this coming bull market.
So, what are the top 3 projects expected to lead the bull run in 2025?
● Bitcoin – “Digital Gold” Gaining Ground in Institutional Finance
Following the approval of Bitcoin ETFs in 2024, institutional capital has poured into Bitcoin, fueling a sustained rally. With supply decreasing post-halving and demand increasing, Bitcoin’s status as an established scarce asset is stronger than ever.
Major economies such as the U.S., Europe, and Japan are starting to categorize Bitcoin as an official asset class, signaling a structural bull market beyond just price appreciation. On May 5, Binance founder CZ stated in an interview with Rug Radio that Bitcoin could reach up to $1 million in the current market cycle. Goldman Sachs also released an analysis claiming Bitcoin is now a more efficient hedge against inflation than gold.
By mid-2025, Bitcoin is not just expected to rise in price—it is positioned to drive a paradigm shift as it integrates into the institutional financial system.
● Celestia – Modular Blockchain Infrastructure Powering Web3 Expansion
Celestia is leading the way into the era of modular blockchains, breaking away from the traditional monolithic structure. By separating consensus, execution, and data availability layers, it offers developers the flexibility to build tailored chains.
It also features high compatibility with Ethereum and Cosmos ecosystems. Since late 2024, AppChain projects built on Celestia have been rapidly growing, with some expanding into real-use Web3 services such as gaming, social platforms, and infrastructure.
Celestia is proving itself not just as a tech platform but as foundational infrastructure for the Web3 ecosystem as a whole.
● WonderChain – The World’s First Web3 Project Combining Travel, Real-Life Rewards, and Global Commerce
WonderChain is the world’s first Web3 lifestyle project to combine travel, real-life activity rewards, and global commerce in a unified ecosystem.
Going beyond typical reward apps, WonderChain integrates AI-based personalized recommendations, real-time location verification, and DAO-based global commerce to connect daily life with economic activity.
Set to launch its beta service in mid-2025, WonderChain plans to expand its ecosystem through a community mission platform, live commerce, and rare-item group purchases based on national and regional demand, aiming to onboard users globally.
Its exchange system between credits and utility tokens, along with an automatic burn mechanism based on real usage, establishes a deflationary structure that enhances token value.
WonderChain aspires to bring “blockchain you can feel in everyday life,” and is emerging as one of the most promising projects in the 2025 Web3 landscape.
The 2025 bull market won’t be about price surges alone. Projects with real-world utility and technological trustworthiness are expected to lead the way. Bitcoin’s institutional reliability, Celestia’s scalable infrastructure, and WonderChain’s lifestyle-focused Web3 model each represent different but complementary pillars of the market’s future. The quiet momentum building now may soon translate into explosive growth in the upcoming bull cycle.

Securing the Future: What Is a Token Lock?
A token lock is a blockchain-based mechanism that restricts access to a portion of a project’s token supply for a fixed period.

- Stronger Ecosystem Foundation: Encourages more stable trading, staking, and ecosystem development.
