Alexa PenaVega’s Husband Admits to Feeling ‘A Little Jealous’ Over Her Love Scene Filming
Alexa Ellesse PenaVega is an American actress and singer. She is known for her roles as Carmen Cortez in the first four Spy Kids films and Julie Corky in the 2004 film Sleepover.
Alexa PenaVega and her husband Carlos encountered difficulties early in their marriage related to her filming love scenes.
In an interview with Fox News Digital, Alexa disclosed that Carlos experienced jealousy at the start of their marriage. Nonetheless, as their spiritual bond deepened, they found it easier to navigate these challenges.
Alexa revealed “So, years ago, Carlos would get a little jealous, but I think the more confident and comfortable, and honestly the closer we got to God, the more our roles started shifting with what we were taking,”.
“But, also, I think there’s just so much trust in our relationship that there was never a need to be, like, threatened by anybody else.”
Carlos added, “There are boundaries to consider. It’s important to maintain healthy boundaries.”
“That’s what I love so much about Great American Family,” he said. “If she’s not doing a movie with me, I know that whatever she’s doing, whoever she’s with, it’s safe. And it’s all going to be good. So, for us, this is such a great home for us.”
“So, years ago, Carlos would get a little jealous, but I think the more confident and comfortable, and honestly the closer we got to God … there was never a need to be threatened by anybody else.” explained Alexa PenaVega.
In their upcoming untitled film, Alexa and Carlos will portray romantic partners. When Fox News Digital inquired whether filming these scenes made them uncomfortable, both Alexa and Carlos responded that it did not.
“I think this movie in particular is really special because, basically, we were given the opportunity to produce this one. Like, this is our, our production company. It’s the first one that we’ve been able to actually produce together, and from the ground up,” Carlos said.
“So, for us, this is super special in getting to live out these characters on the screen. I mean, I’ve had so much fun.”
While religion holds significant importance for the PenaVegas, they are not looking to confine their careers solely to Christian films.
“So, we’re in this half-and-half place. We think faith-based films are really important, but I think, more importantly, are movies that are for the world, but they’re made by kingdom-hearted people because we don’t want to just make Christian movies,” Alexa said.
“We want to make movies that just have so much, so much behind them, so much meaning, to where you walk away and feel really good and don’t even know why,” she added. “It’s because everything in the movie is really coming from a kingdom heart, but we’re talking about real world things. I think it’s really easy for Christian films to come across as cheesy, a cookie cutter, when, honestly, the Christian life is hard.”
“Life can be ugly, but there’s a way out, and let’s show the world that,” Carlos added.
