Iglesias' music mirrored the recordings of his father on many levels by showcasing an interwoven string of European, American, and Hispanic influences. In terms of filmed dramatic entertainment, Iglesias took his premier feature bow with a supporting role in the Robert Rodriguez actioner Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003). In 2007, he guest-starred on episodes of the popular CBS sitcoms Two and a Half Men and How I Met Your Mother. He also appeared that year as himself in an episode of the daytime drama The Young and the Restless, performing a track from his latest album in a fictional club on the show. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi
