Tomemos por ejemplo su primer arribo en 1990, a los 23 a?os, a Estados Unidos; siendo ya una estrella en su pa?s, M?xico, tuvo que comenzar de cero en la industria del cine en Los ?ngeles. Despu?s que el director Robert Rodr?guez la viera en televisi?n y la seleccionara para su pel?cula Desperado, de 1995, Hayek comenz? a conseguir papeles en pel?culas como Fools Rush In y Wild Wild West.
