E!online reported from the SAG awards in Los Angeles (on Jan. 25, 2009) that Diego Luna was being a dutiful hubby and daddy-to-be when he won the role of Jack Lira in director Gus Van Sant's Milk.

"My wife was pregnant, and I went to buy Cocoa Puffs," Luna recalled. "She needed so badly her Cocoa Puffs, so I went to a store and was buying many boxes to take to Mexico. That's when I got a phone call from Gus. He said, 'Man, I want you to do the film.' It was like only an hour and a half after I met him."

Luna's wife, Camila Sodi, gave birth to son Jerónimo in August (2008). "He's beautiful, the best," Luna said. "They're in Mexico right now because I am doing theater there. I so want to go back."
