Wilmer hopes Encanto will be a source of inspiration

WILMER Valderrama hopes ‘Encanto’ will be a future source of inspiration to his daughter.

The 41-year-old actor – whose fiancee Amanda Pacheco gave birth to their first child Nakano in February – admitted he feels ‘emotional’ about his new movie, which is set in Colombia, and thinks it will be lauded for its cultural impact in the future.

Wilmer – who spent parts of his childhood in his father’s native Venezuela and his mother’s native Colombia before returning to the US when he was 14 – told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: “I keep going back to feeling emotional. When we watched the film you get hit back to back to back with heritage, history, sacrifice and the resilience of a family.”
