Every so regularly, whether or not in real life or on tv, we find ourselves ridiculously drawn to anyone we should not be into. In the case of Netflix's On My Block, that crush is none rather than tatted gang leader Oscar "Spooky" Diaz (Julio Macias), who we meet in Season 1 once he's released from prison.

Over the past 3 seasons, our problematic crush has simplest larger. While Oscar encouraged his brother Cesar to sign up for the Santos gang in the first season, or even showed viewers a more mushy and protective aspect of Spooky, the 2d season used to be a little bit extra rocky.

That's because Oscar essentially selected his gang over his brother after Cesar did not step up to shoot Latrelle. This ends up in Cesar being homeless for many of the season, but by way of the end of it all, the brothers make up and Julio Macias' Oscar turns into all the more attractive once again. Sigh.

So to indulge our crush, keep studying to learn about Julio Macias' personal life, together with whether he is single and what he is working on next.

Is Julio Macias unmarried or does the actor have already got a spouse?

First things first, Julio appears to be like not anything like the character he performs. Like, there are uncanny make-up transformations (see the cast of This Is Us) after which there may be the more or less costuming job that was once executed to Julio to change into him into Spooky. 

Without the massive neck tat, face tat, facial hair and shaved head, you will barely acknowledge the actor at the back of the function.

Honest to God, we did more than one double-take when we noticed how Julio cleans up for the crimson carpet. And since the actor assists in keeping his Instagram page reasonably professional (learn: on-set and appearing pics, and likewise a detailed ambassador collaboration with Los Angeles hashish cafe Lowell Farms), he does now not post a lot about his personal existence.

We can't inform whether that's an ideal factor (as we can keep crushing on him with out the concern that he is taken), or completely terrible (does he have a GF and is she the jealous type?), however we surely recognize it. 

However, we will say this: Julio has been photographed on a couple of pink carpet events with one Shannon Shodder, despite the fact that we have been not able to seek out any information about her online or on social media.

What else is Julio Macias in?

These days, Julio is promoting the new season of On My Block, and teases to People en Español that "there is a lot of change, a lot of exploring of who people are and who they will inevitably become." 

"There are two new chess pieces introduced in this new gang," he continues. "There are reunions with old family members — it's heavy."

"The writing is incredibly smart and also very funny," he adds. "It makes you think about serious issues and makes you think about not only your own life, but someone who is living across the street from you. It's done in a palpable way through comedy. At the end of the day you have to find a way to smile and to overcome."

But get this: Julio is also getting ready to work on one of the most anticipated projects of the decade (in our books, no less than): Selena: The Series. The 29-year-old is ready to play Pete Astudillo, a singer-songwriter who was once also a backup dancer and singer for Selena's band Los Dinos.

A put up shared by way of Julio Macias (@ajuliomacias) on Aug 14, 2019 at 10:40am PDT

"It's a beautiful homage to Selena," he advised People. "She became such an icon so quickly and was then taken away from us. Praise J.Lo and everyone who made that first movie, but that was just a quick synopsis of everything Selena was, and Selena's story is about all of the Quintanillas."

Well, we didn't know we might be able to be more excited about this upcoming series, which is about to be released someday in 2020, but now we for sure are. 

Catch our boyfriend Julio Macias in Season 3 of On My Block, now streaming on Netflix, and look out for his role in Selena: The Series later this 12 months.
