Chicago PD: Benjamin Levy Aguilar Getting To Speak His Native Language Was Beautiful
By C.M. CROCKFORD
When Benjamin Levy Aguilar appeared on a recent episode of “The Kelly Clarkson Show,” the actor discussed the scenes on “Chicago PD” where Dante Torres speaks in Spanish.
The “Chicago PD” regular put his hands to his heart, telling Clarkson, “It was the most beautiful thing, and now I understand what Americans feel like when they act in English.”
Aguilar speaks both languages fluently, but he is originally from Guatemala, and Spanish is his native tongue.
According to Wolf Entertainment's official Twitter, Season 10 Episode 4 features the series' first scenes performed primarily in Spanish.
The production even hired a second script coordinator to make sure the dialogue was correct. Hopefully, Aguilar will get more Spanish-language scenes in upcoming episodes.
