Marabina Jaimes works on transformation rather than volume, and the catalogue keeps proving that the quieter choice was the correct one.
The essay
Our editors on the work, the patterns and the reason this body of work holds together.
Marabina Jaimes appears in 4 films in the Nutevio catalogue, and none of them would work the same way without Marabina. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is the clearest case: a film rated 8.5 by our editors, where the performance carries weight the script only implies.
The recognisable elements are transformation, versatility, emotional range. Watch two of these films back to back and the method separates from the material — the same instrument, tuned differently for action, science fiction, adventure. It is a style built on what is withheld as much as what is played.
Working with Joaquim Dos Santos, Derek Drymon, Troy Quane and others, Marabina Jaimes helped set a standard other performers now audition against. Awards bodies have been slower than the work, which is usually the sign of a career built on choices rather than campaigns.

Best entry point
as Additional Voices (voice)
Start here. Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse is the clearest statement of what Marabina Jaimes does — accessible, 140 minutes, and rated 8.5 by our editors. No context required.
Our editors order this path by accessibility first and chronology second. You meet Marabina at the most legible performance, then move forward in time so each film reads as a response to the one before it rather than a repetition of it.
Coco (2017)
Keeps the adventure register of Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse but asks for a colder reading of it.
Spies in Disguise (2019)
Keeps the adventure register of Coco but asks for a colder reading of it.
Hotel Transylvania: Transformania (2022)
Keeps the comedy register of Spies in Disguise but asks for a colder reading of it.

Categories of our own
Six editorial categories we apply to every performer we cover.
Most rewatchable
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
The one that survives a fourth viewing. Nothing in the performance depends on surprise, which is why it keeps paying out.
Most emotional performance
Coco
as Additional Voices (voice)
Grief played at conversational volume. The film never asks the audience to cry; the performance simply makes it difficult not to.
Most influential performance
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
You can hear this reading in other actors' auditions a decade later — the surest measure of influence there is.
Best ensemble performance
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
Work that makes everyone else in the frame better without ever pulling the camera towards itself.
Career defining performance
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
If the career had to be argued in a single scene, our editors would pick one from this film and rest the case.
In their films' words
“You can build a whole film around a performer who knows when not to speak. Marabina Jaimes has known it for a long time.”

Our desk
Best ending, best opening, best twist and the rest — categories we apply to everyone we cover.
Best ending
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
The last five minutes reorganise everything before them, and hold up when you already know what's coming.
Best opening
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
A first sequence that states the rules of the film without explaining a single one of them.
Most emotional
Coco
as Additional Voices (voice)
The film where the technique steps aside and lets the feeling arrive undefended.
Best twist
Hotel Transylvania: Transformania
as Additional Voices (voice)
A reversal earned by information the film gave you and trusted you to misread.
Best visual achievement
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
Images that would survive with the sound switched off.
Best action sequence
Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse
as Additional Voices (voice)
Geography, stakes and consequence held in the same frame — spectacle you can follow.
Best dialogue
Coco
as Additional Voices (voice)
Lines written to be spoken, staged so the pauses do half the work.
Most underrated film
Coco
as Additional Voices (voice)
The public vote sits below ours on this one, and the direction is the reason for the gap.
