Gabino Diego
Gabino Diego was born on September 18, 1966 in Madrid.
He started in cinema at the age of seventeen by chance, when he auditioned for a role in Las bicicletas son para el verano.
Titles such as El viaje a ninguna parte, ¡Ay, Carmela! or El rey pasmado made him a figure of Spanish cinema.
He won the Luis Buñuel Award for El viaje a ninguna parte and a Goya Award for ¡Ay, Carmela! He was also nominated for a Goya as best leading actor for El rey pasmado, as supporting actor for Belle Epoque and again as leading actor in Los peores años de nuestra vida.
In 1996 he worked in El amor perjudica seriamente la salud, directed by Manuel Gómez Pereira, and in 1998 he starred in Antonio Mercero's La hora de los valientes, obtaining a Goya Award nomination for best leading male performance.
Santiago Segura hired him for his film Torrente 2: misión en Marbella (Gabino also made a cameo in the 1st part of the saga Torrente, el brazo tonto de la ley). In 2018, he premiered Tiempo Después, directed by José Luis Cuerda.
