The father of the Mexican actress was the director that she received in the high security prison inmates such as Joaquín El Chapo Guzmán, Rafael Caro Quintero, Mario Aburto Martínez and Miguel Ángel Félix Gallardo. After multiple death threats, the prison official was found dead in November 2000.[7]

The playwright told an Ecuadorian newspaper that Marina's father was murdered a day before her acting debut, but she decided to introduce herself. In that presentation was Luis Rosales, who today is a casting director at Netflix, who called her to participate in the film Roma, directed by the acclaimed director Alfonso Cuarón.
Roma gave her the opportunity to be considered by the academy as a nominee for Best Supporting Actress, along with Amy Adams, Regina King, Emma Stone and Rachel Weisz, in the same category.[7]
