Of all the telenovelas in which I filmed in Argentina, "Máximo corazón" I think its very worthwhile work on its development working very serious and strong team. Now I feel that by doing so with honor carry the flag of Argentina, because, despite the crisis, we do high quality product, which is not inferior to world standards.

You, like many Argentine actors to work in Spain. How would you define this phenomenon? It is a boom or a passing fashion?

I think this is just the beginning. American cinema could integrate Australian actors such as Mel Gibson, Nicole Kidman and Russell Crowe. Despite differences in emphasis, the Americans and the Australians are doing a movie together, and thus managed to gain a huge market. On television it starts to look very attractive triple alliance between Spain, Mexico and Argentina. If these relationships are firmly established, it can turn out something interesting. In our country, a lot of talented people. We are very hard working, and we have a large field of activity. In Spanish television actor very hard. I went into the right door, and I bought it, and now I love the Spanish audiences as well as the Argentine.

You finally settled in Spain?

I live there in November '98, he came to star in "Mediterráneo" ("Mediterranean") - the series, which comes out every week. I was shooting for almost two years in the town of Estepona, located on the Mediterranean coast. I went with the whole family and was there until 2000. In that year, I returned briefly to film in Argentina "Luna salvaje" ("Wild Moon"), and then returned to Marbella. Last year, we moved to Madrid because I started acting in the "Esencia de poder" ("The essence of power"). Since 1991, the year I go to Spain and Italy for work, I was invited to various programs. The 93 th was a television presenter, currently stars in the series. Spaniards know me as an actor of telenovelas, as a leading music and entertainment programs. I have a lot of what he did.

You feel comfortable in the role of lead?

I really liked it. I still continue to do it. When I appear in any of the programs, viewers represent me as an actor and as a leader. That surprises me, because I'm still an actor. I say this with all due respect. The role of the leader, I behaved quite naturally, without a trace of shame. So I pretended to play. I drove the "La noche vieja" ("Eve"), "Vivan los novios" ("Long live the newlyweds!"), "Gran fiesta" ("Great Feast") - shows like the one that leads Marcelo Tinelli (author and host of a popular show on the channel Videomatch tel. - Note. Trans.) .

Judging by the fact that you tell, it was more than once?

I worked for a year as a presenter. I was invited because I played in the telenovela had success in Spain. I drove more than one program, a number certainly was a beautiful girl (one day Corrado had the opportunity to lead a program with the Claudia Schiffer. - Note. Trans.) And sometimes more than one, I had someone like James Bond. While the Spanish television were the leading serious, buttoned, and I behaved more relaxed and at ease, and the audience loved it.

Are you going to stay long in Buenos Aires?

In "Máximo corazón" is a hundred episodes. After I finished filming the last of them, my family and I return to Madrid. I have plans to participate in the filming of the Italian series, I hope it will be shown at tel. What I did in Argentina, it has been shown in Europe, but what I did in Spain, Argentina, no one saw. I would like to get my work has been shown at home. Unfortunately, the Spanish products does not have access to Argentina and Latin America.

By participating in these new projects, so you're trying to get away from the role of the hero-lover?

I never felt like a hostage to this role. I think it all depends on the actor, if it is convenient to be an actor and a role he did not want to move on, then that's his problem. Those roles in which I was doing there, can not be called romantic. I was shot in the adventure, drama serials. What I did here - is not always the role of the heroic lovers. For example, my work "Tiempofinal". Then ... this role - the hero-lover Lover: the real situation  Lover: the real situation
 ... I want to ask you: Mel Gibson - the hero-lover? He is the actor who plays the characters. I feel that Maximo - a character in my new telenovela - a hero. He - not the typical puppet hero-lover. I feel that as a person - I'm more than just a nice attractive face and blue eyes. I did not stop there, I learned, grew up, went to another country for four years, to try to do something new.

Well, I think that your appearance and blue eyes greatly facilitate your task of penetration on the television screens.

Yes, it has helped my work. That was the only thing that has opened the door for me. It was my happiness when I called Sebastian Borensteyn to shoot with Lito Cruz in one of the series "Tiempofinal", where I played a negative character. There are people who believe that I am capable of more. If you fight, then get. I struggle (pounding fist on the table) But for this purpose I also have to believe.

How did you become an actor?

I studied medicine for two years, but then gave up, decided to do what I liked really, and entered the theater courses. From the experimental group, which is the name of this - Experimental Theatre of Argentina, we traveled the Valle de Punilya. The speakers at the public library in La Faldo and slept in another library in La Cumbre, it was in 1983. We pasted the posters in different towns, and it was our only advertising. They earn a pittance that they've taken up immediately. In 1987, when I was ready to go to the festival in Havana with the performance of the product Buenoventura Francisco "La diestra de Dios padre" ("Hand of the Lord"), I got a call from the Ninth Channel.

And you left the stage in the pursuit of popularity.

The 87-year work on television was considered something shameful. It was this something makyavellievskoe because great theater directors were dying - so wanted to do TV, but did not dare to do it. Indeed, I wanted to earn popularity, and then play in the cinema and the theater. Also, I wanted to start a family, children. And I was able to combine these two things - create a family and a career.

You can always create an image of an exemplary father of a family. This is true or is it a deliberate strategy?

No way. My family - is the most important and precious thing I have in life. I - a workaholic. I - actor and work every day for many hours. I love what I do, and I want more. I need more. And not because I - an ambitious man. And because I want to grow as a person and as a professional. For many years I have been doing tae kwon do, I believe in Eastern philosophy, in the immensity of knowledge. There is no limit to perfection. Despite the crisis, the need to fight for what you love.

You have achieved everything they wanted?

I always wanted to be a citizen of the world. Because my father worked in a multinational corporation, I dreamed that he was sent to work in Detroit. On the sidelines of his father's company I spoke with people from different countries. My children Lucas and Lucia could feel citizens of the world, especially in Marbella, because it is a very cosmopolitan city. They're communicating with children from Norway, Sweden, Ireland and the Arab countries. I dreamed about it. So one way or another wishes come true. I believe in the power of desire.
