In 2010 he played bloodthirsty Colombian prisoner/fighter Raul "Dolor" Quinones in the film Undisputed III: Redemption, which was his first American film and the first time he spoke English in a film as he was previously a stunt man.[2] In Machete Kills (2013), he played an associate of main villain Luther Voz (Mel Gibson), with "Zaror" being his character's name.
