When he was nine years old, the Pharmaceutical Union opened a free course and Cáceres attended. He studied with Alejandra Boero and at age ten, when he met her, Boero asked him why he wanted to be an actor. Some time later his son Alejandro Samek premiered the play Heredarás el viento, which was the first play in which he performed.

In 2012, he starred in Graduados, a popular telenovela on Telefe, where he starred alongside Daniel Hendler and Nancy Dupláa.[2]

Between 2023 and 2024, he starred in the comedy play, El Beso (The Kiss), which gained much media attention for his kiss with co-star, Luciano Castro.[5][6]
