And, his TV debut was on 'Estado de Gracia' back in 2009.
He began to shoot for many local commercials and TV shows before he bagged a major role that marked his breakthrough. His American acting debut happened with Fox's 'The Following' 11 years ago. He then went on to showcase his versatility as an actor with 'Mixology,' 'Narcos,' 'Blood & Oil' and 'Second Chance.'
His first major part in a film was playing the superhero Sunspot in 'X-Men: Days of Future Past' in 2014. He has also acted in films like 'Amanda & Jack Go Glamping,' '2 Hearts,' 'Agent Game,' 'Bruised' to name a few. He also has directing credits with 'Before Tomorrow.'
