Mariana Treviño offers insights into her character, Elena, in the Apple TV+ series, “Stick.” According to Treviño, “Elena is a woman who has had to take care of a house. Here and in any country in the world it is indeed easy, but it implies a very large force and a very large effort.She has developed a strong character, which is something we bring from Mexico and that I bring as a northern, where she dares to say things and put her rules. She is one of those moms who are going to take care of her children. It represents this issue that we Mexicans have to take care of the children and protect them, but she is strict as her family has just suffered a recent break.”

I have not paid so much attention in my life, but it caught my attention. Then I remembered whenever I went to the United States told me some of Lee Trevinothey always mentioned it to me and they asked me that if it was something of Lee Trevino and I had no idea who I was or why they told me,but then I took the trouble to find out and discovered that I was a golfist,and that stayed there. Some time later this comes out, and I thought that all that had been the first seed.”
