- Stunts
Xavier Burbano is truly an international artist. Born and raised in
the mean streets of Chicago, he was first bitten by the acting bug as a
kid, and not by choice. Looking back; he likes to think of that time,
as being schooled in survival. Absorbing and understanding behavioral
patterns from a sorted cast of characters; he has honed that skill and
has brought it into his acting world. His first brake, came through the
BBC at twenty-five; alongside Collin Firth and Albert Finney and many
other international stars; in a six month series in Cartagena,
Columbia. He then traveled to Caracas, Venezuela; to be the villain in
a co-production: Madrid, Spain and Rome, Italy; alongside John Savage
and Tomas Arana. After, he studied "The Method", at The Lee Strasburg
Institute in NY, but then, abruptly left the acting world on the verge
of fame, with three films pending. After more than a decade-long
hiatus; life has come full circle and has brought back the artist with
extreme passion and fierce energy. United with many Latin actors, from
his past; he calls Miami home and has managed to brake back into the
Latin Market on a few telenovelas at Telemundo Studios, as "El Maton"
(the killer). In the latest film, "Rigidez Caraverica"; he is the lead,
as an ex-Cuban Soldier turned serial killer. It's in one of the only
"slasher" type-movies ever made in the Spanish language. So there are
hi hopes throughout the Latin and especially, the Cuban community.
Currently, people can appreciate his talents in many languages. His
films are now in Spanish, Italian and best of all, English. Raw and
ready to take you to limits unseen, unfelt and unknown. Clearly, keep
your eyes on this young American actor.
