Julia-Levy has variously stated he was born in either 1968, 1971, or 1972 to Margaret Levy Baroug in Mexico City or Puerto Rico. Merel Juliá (née Polloway), the widow of Raúl Juliá, has denied the actor's paternity claims and has called Julia-Levy "an impostor" whose real name is "Salvador Fuentes". Julia-Levy has said that Salvador Fuentes is "a name that I used when I was younger so that I could do crazy shit."

In 2011, Julia-Levy announced that he was to write, produce and narrate a documentary titled Revelations of the Mayans: 2012 and Beyond, that would provide evidence that the Mayans had contact with extraterrestrials. Amidst the 2012 phenomenon Julia-Levy said that the world would not come to an end in 2012, "but the real shit is going to happen in the next 15 to 20 years." The film began shooting in Mexico in March 2012 and was scheduled for release before December, but production was halted after a contract dispute between Julia-Levy and the film's executive producer Elisabeth Thieriot. The case was taken to arbitration at the Independent Film & Television Alliance by Thieriot, and the arbitrator found for Theriot on her claims of breach of contract and fraud in the inducement.

Animal rights activism

He expanded his involvement to include the plight of Lolita, an orca whale that has been living and performing at Seaquarium in Miami, Florida.

During the first murder trial against Phil Spector in 2007, Julia-Levy claimed to have been friends for many years and intimate for several years with Lana Clarkson, and was to appear in court as a witness for the defense. Julia-Levy was withdrawn as a witness when a Sheriff's Department investigation report showed Julia-Levy had used fake names and Social Security numbers and falsely claimed to have attended Harvard University and University of Southern California.
