Are Danny Trejo’s Machete Movies & Spy Kids Set In The Same Universe?
Back in 2010, Robert Rodriguez and Ethan Maniquis brought us the gritty R-rated action film “Machete,” with Danny Trejo brilliantly portraying the titular character. But here’s a fun fact: this isn’t the first time we’ve encountered Machete on the big screen! You see, in Rodriguez’s earlier, family-friendly “Spy Kids” films from the 2000s, Trejo also played a character named Machete. However, don’t let that fool you – those movies are light years away from the graphic violence, language, and nudity found in “Machete.”
