Life and career

edit

José Manuel Cervino Almeida was born in Arona, on the island of Tenerife (Canary Islands), in 1940.

Despite his left-wing political beliefs and reputation for kindness, he often played right-wing villains for director Eloy de la Iglesia.[2] He generally worked in films that explored themes of marginalization, juvenile delinquency, and drug abuse.[3] He won the Goya Award for Best Supporting Actor for his role in 13 Roses.[4]

He appeared in the 2008 television series Men Hunters, which garnered good critical reviews, prompting Antena 3 to keep it on the air despite low viewership until the end of its first and only season.[5] In 2009 he was a member of the jury at the 12th Malaga Film Festival.[6]

In 2013 he appeared in the daily television series Gran Reserva: El Origen,[7] which explored the background of series Gran Reserva, focusing on the lives of two winery families (Cortázar and Reverte) in the 1960s.
