Murilo Benicio Ribeiro

Murilo Benicio is a famous Brazilian actor. Familiar to the audience on the main roles in telenovelas "Clon", "Chocolate with Pepper", "Prospect of Brazil" and others.

Murilo Benicio Ribeiro was born on July 13, 1971, to Mario Luis Ribeiro and Berenice Benicio in Niteroe, a suburb of Rio de Janeiro. The future serial hero-lover grew up in a large family, where he was the youngest among his brothers Mario Sergio, Marco Antonio and Marcelo.

Little is known about Murilo Child: he was shy, slightly stuttering, but in the south hot-tempered. Eventually the boy coped with the stutter.

The actor says that the desire to devote his life to the stage appeared after watching movies with Charlie Chaplin. Ribeiro's family was well-off (the father is the co-head of the Bank of Brazil), so Murilo's decision to become an actor was not objectionable. On the contrary, the parents supported their son's initiative. At this age, the boy began to study theater, and the following year became an apprentice in Teatro O Tablado.

When he was eighteen, he went to San Rafael High School in San Francisco, where he studied acting for three years. But the Hollywood dream remained for the ambitious Brazilian unattainable. In the U.S., the guy was waiting not for success, and hard work in low-paid positions like pizza guy and window cleaner and additional acting lessons. The young man did not take money from well-to-do parents in principle.

In 1991, returning home on vacation, Murilo Benicio enrolled in acting courses at Rede Globo, where he studied for a year, and in 1993 starred in the television series "The Wounded Beast" (in Russian translation sounds like "Predator"). For his role as Fabrizio, the actor received the Opening of the Year award in 1994 and the 1995 APCA Trophy.

Fame came to the artist only after the film "Killers", in which Benicio portrayed the villain Toninho. It happened in 1997, and at the same time Murilo starred in another series from Rede Globo called "In the Name of Love", which was a great success in Brazil.

In 2000, Murilo Benicio starred alongside Penelope Cruz in the romantic comedy Woman Above. As the actor himself said, for this he had to go through two castings: in Brazil, where the director was looking for a candidate, and in the United States. For this role Benicio received from Hollywood journalists the flattering nickname "Brazilian Banderas", gaining a certain popularity in America.

In 2002, the Globo channel directed the cult TV series "The Clone", to Murilo Benicio came world fame. The series has won such a stunning success that it is still broadcast in the most remote corners of the world. For their work in the telenovela Benicio and Giovanna Antonelli received the Contigo Award as the best romantic couple.

In the interview, Murilo notes that the filming of the series was exhausting, the actors worked six days a week and laid out to the end. And Benicio himself was even regularly interviewed by psychologists, explaining the worldview and motives of each of the characters he played.

After the success of "The Clone" Murilo was established in the list of the best film actors in Brazil and became one of the most beloved artists of the studio Globo, which for many years provided the young man with roles in TV series and films. No sooner had the characters, whom Benicio played in "The Clone", as an actor established himself as a Brazilian idol, participated in the project "Chocolate with pepper."

After 2003, the actor was involved in two dozen films and TV series, not counting those where he appeared on the screen in the role of himself. The actor also continued to play in the play, including with his partner on the TV series "The Clone" Giovanna Antonelli.

In 2012, Murilo starred in the TV series "Prospect brazil." The story of the multi-series tape revolved around the girl Rita, who was kicked out of the house stepmother. Benicio's collaborators on set were Deborah Falabella, Adriana Estevez, Kaua Raymond and others.

The following year, the actor appeared in two projects - "Stolen Love" and "Generation Brazil."

2016 brought Murilo Benicio a new role in the miniseries "Nothing Will Be Like Before." Here the artist again worked with Falabella. Murilo's character, Saulo Ribeiro, falls in love with the voice of Deborah's heroine, Veronica Maya. The couple gets closer and goes to Rio de Janeiro to start a new life. Ten years later, she becomes the main star of Radio Copacabana, and the man turns into a producer.

The artist was also invited to the lead role in the telenovela "Rules of the Game", where a partner on the set Murilo would perform Giovanna Antonelli. But the actor refused.

Murilo Benicio does not like to talk about his turbulent personal life, which only exacerbates interest in her. Benicio prefers to have novels with colleagues in the craft: all long-term relationships of men, including the present - exclusively with actresses.

The first wife was Alessandra Negrini, whom they met in Globo: an eighteen-year-old girl also attended acting courses at the studio. The couple married in 1996, and less than a year later they had a son, Antonio.

The actors agreed that they would not star in the same films - probably not to transfer work into family relationships. The contract was broken: in 1998 they played together in the TV series "My Big Love". The same year, the couple broke up.

A few years later, the actors Alessandra and Murilo once again played together in the film "Sex, Love and Betrayal", which gave rise to rumors of a revival of the relationship. This information turned out to be false.

Murilo and Caroline Ferraz met on the set of "In the Name of Love," where they played a brother and sister. For the sake of a relationship with Benicio Carolina broke off the marriage with the co-owner of the studio "Globo" Mario Coen, leaving him a daughter. The actors were a really beautiful couple. Scandals of beloved more than once became the property of the tabloids of Brazil, and in 2001 Ferraz left Murilo because of jealousy on the part of a man. During the relationship, the couple managed to star in the melodrama "Possible Love."

In the same year on the set of the TV series "The Clone" Murilo Benicio met his next love, the beautiful Giovanna Antonelli. A few years later, Murilo and Giovanna formalized their relationship. In 2005, Antonelli gave her husband a son Pietro.

Once again, the union fell apart because of Murilo's uncontrollable jealousy. Giovanna hoped that the birth of a child would temper the fervor of her lover, but it did not happen. In 2006, Antonelli filed for divorce, and then almost immediately married an American businessman.

Murilo's next choice was actress Guillermina Ginley. They played together in the film "Unforgettable" and began to meet also on the set. Unfortunately, this relationship lasted less than a year.

Today, the actor is dating Deborah Falabella, his partner on the TV series "The Clone" (they played a father and daughter). They began a relationship on the set of the TV series "Prospect Brazil."

The couple had been together since 2013, but hid the relationship until the lovers were caught by paparazzi. Murilo and Deborah live together, but to legalize the relationship are in no hurry. Perhaps the reason for this is the failed marriages left behind by the artists.

In one interview, Benicio admitted that he had met his ideal. When a man watches as his beloved arrives, tears of affection come to his eyes. Apparently, because of the 8-year age difference, the pair did not see each other on the set of the TV series "The Clone", where for the first time participated together.

Thousands of fans are watching the life and work of their favorite star on Instagram. Murilo pleases subscribers with regular photos of personal and working sides of life.

The artist's creative biography continues to be replenished with major roles in films and TV series.

So, in 2017, the actor appeared in the thriller "The Last Beast." In the story, three robbers break into a small restaurant at the end of the day and take hostage the owner of the establishment, a cook, a waitress and three visitors. And then people wake up dormant instincts, showing what a man is ready for the sake of survival.

Murilo was followed by the comedy "Divorce." Together with the artist starred Camila Morgada, Marcia Kabrita, Angela Deep and others.

Benicio also tried himself in the director's chair. In 2018, the audience will see the film of the new director "Kiss on the asphalt." Murilo invited his beloved Deborah Falabella to the title role.

The mini-series "If I Close My Eyes" is scheduled for release in 2019. Benicio and the actor's actual wife will work together again. The creators will reflect the hypocrisy of society in the picture.
