Hugo Silva: “I have some OCD traits that suddenly invade me.”

Hugo Silva submits to "In Private with...": one character and five questions at point-blank range without giving them the opportunity to think beyond two or three seconds of courtesy.
Hugo Silva (Madrid, 1977) is an actor focused on making the characters he faces more human, be they police officers or robbers, noblemen or servants. In 2024, he participated in two series and two films; so far in 2025, he has already released two films, A Funeral for Madmen and Good Luck , and is waiting to present Cada día nace un listo and Nadie nace en Ambrosía . In between, Un hijo and Perros muertos . Possibly, while you read this introduction, he is embarked on another filming. His schedule is dizzying. We ask him to stop for a moment and submit to our most brutal questionnaire.
