Alberto Casanova is a 48-year-old actor who became one of the most recognized faces within the ranks of TV Azteca, due to the large number of soap operas in which he participated.
What did Alberto Casanova say about the lack of opportunities in soap operas?
His last job for the Ajusco television station was in 2014 in ‘Las Bravo’, Well, shortly after, the company made the decision to stop producing these formats and focus on its reality shows.
In December of last year, during an interview for the program ‘De Historia en Historia’, the actor reported that since then it had been difficult for him to get good projects because he believed that he had suffered blockages from producers for having belonged to Azteca.
Why did Alberto Casanova reject a proposal?
Now it was Aurora Valle who revealed on the same program that the actor was forced to turn down a role that a renowned soap opera producer had offered him, because he considered that the role was not suitable because they wanted him to play Matías Novoa’s father, who is only four years younger than him.
“The production of Giselle González, spoke to ‘Tito’ Casanova to offer him the role of Matías Novoa’s father, in ‘Marea de Pasiones’, do me the favor. ‘Tito’ was with Carla Estrada in the Silvia Pinal series, I think that in Trevi too. The problem is that there are actors who are old enough to play the role of the father of a 40-year-old actor,” Valle said.
What did Alberto Casanova say about the lack of opportunities?
In an interview for ‘De Historia en Historia’, last December, the actor mentioned that he had been knocking on doors for years in search of opportunities and the only thing he had achieved was that various producers blocked him.
The former star of TV Azteca stated that he had encountered many casting bosses who had closed their doors to him: “there is no way for you to physically pass the filter to the producer’s desk and nor the filter of reaching at least one casting.”
He assured that since 2016, when his exclusivity contract with TV Azteca ended, he had been looking for opportunities, but only Carla Estrada had allowed him to participate in her ‘They are me’ project.
The former TV Azteca actor said he was aware that they would not give him a leading role because it was not exclusiveHowever, he asked to be allowed to at least audition and have the opportunity to win a role.
