What is that supposed to mean? Latino is not a race, but rather a cultural identity. One can be white and latino, just as they can be black and latino. Celia Cruz was as black as night, but she was just as latino as JLo, Andy Garcia, Cameron Diaz, Ricky Martin, or Robert Gant. Gant seems like a nice guy, but he has never interested me in the least on screen. “He doesn’t look very latino.”

He doesn't look very latino. being cuban could mean lots of things. As far as being stand-offish, it seems to me that often that implies shyness more than anything.

The fact that he anglicized his name, and became another vanilla Ken doll, is what makes him even more dull. Not really, since I already knew he was latino (of cuban descent).

How rare is that in actors! Apparently he changed his name and is really Hispanic. Maybe that will undermine the "vanilla factor" for some of you's. He’s seems very nice and intelligent.

Anyway, I did get the oppurtunity to speak with him at a film festival a few years ago, and while he came off as "stand-offish" at first, he warmed up a bit. Maybe he is just a bit shy and needs to get to know you a little bit better before he opens up a bit?

While he is all kinds of beautiful in person, I sort of got the cold shoulder from him, when I tried to speak with him. Everyone else, Chad Allen, and the guys from Dante's Cove went out of their way to be friendly. Robert was very stand-offish. I was really disappointed.

He managed to avoid of all mention of the creature he had to pretend sexual ardor for over four -what had to be- agonizing seasons. Whatever the highest honor is for civilian bravery, Gant and Chris Potter earned it. Good for him.
