Roy Frank Mitte appointed WBC Ambassador<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Following all health protocols, yesterday at the Brownsville\u00b4s Cinemark the red carpet of the film Triumph took place, the most recent work of actor Roy Frank \u201cRJ\u201d Mitte III, known for his role as Walt Jr in the award-winning series \u201cBreaking Bad\u201d<\/p>\n

This film that will be in all theaters in the United States from April 30, Roy plays a young man with cerebral palsy, who by the last year of high school decides to go against all odds and fight to achieve his dream, by being part of the Greco-Roman wrestling team and to become a champion.<\/p>\n

The character of this movie was written especially for Mitte by Michael D. Coffey, -who also suffers from cerebral palsy-, a situation that did not stop him from graduating with a degree in business administration with a specialization in computer information systems, in addition to writing five scripts: Into the Fire, Somebody Like You, The Funny Guy, One Eye Open and the most recent, Triumph.<\/p>\n

A premiere of stars, which was attended by the President \u00a0of the WBC, Mauricio Sulaim\u00e1n, who took the opportunity to present Mitte with a replica of the iconic world champion belt, recognizing him as an ambassador of the organization. The WBC president praised Mitte’s work not only as an actor but also, behind the scenes as his history and actions are an inspiration for the world.<\/p>\n

Mitte is also a spokesperson for the \u201cI AM PWD\u201d campaign, for the inclusion of artists with disabilities in the arts and the media of the United Cerebral Palsy organization. In addition, the 28-year-old also offers talks in schools and has even shown great support to various artists in their fight for the inclusion of people with disabilities on their social networks.Roy, who at just three years old was diagnosed with permanent cerebral palsy – apparently caused by a respiratory problem during childbirth, recognized that despite the fact that doctors suggested surgeries all the time to deactivate motor problems, he always preferred to rely on sports and even became a scorer player for the soccer team.<\/p>\n

He recalled:<\/p>\n

“I believed that nothing was wrong with me when I was growing up, I thought it was quite normal until I went to school and someone told me that it was not normal to have a disability. This was shocking to me.<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cHowever, when I asked my mother why this was happening to me, she replied: You need to accept what you cannot change and learn to live and be happy with it, as if there was no tomorrow<\/em>.\u201d<\/p>\n

These words were the ones that were forever engraved in his heart and mind, so \u00a0that statement led him to challenge plus overcome \u00a0all stereotypes, showing that everything is POSSIBLE, if you want it. That obstacles are only in your mind and this is precisely the message of Triumph, FIGHT FOR YOUR DREAMS even if you have to swim against the tide.<\/p>\n
