The stars of the TV series “Elite”: what they looked like in childhood and what helped them to become famous

Itzan Escamilla was remembered by the public for the role of Samuel Garcia in the Elite TV series. The young man was born in Madrid and showed excellent acting skills from childhood.

While still in school, he often took part in musicals and other productions, and by the age of 18 he had already started his career. He is now 22 years old and he is at the height of his popularity not only in his native Spain, but all over the world.

Another handsome man in the series, Miguel Bernardo, was born in Valencia into the family of an actress and producer, which may have influenced his choice of profession.

The young man studied at Santa Monica College and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts. In 2016, he landed his first role in the series Tell Me.

Now everyone knows Miguel as Guzman from Elite. The 23-year-old actor can also be seen in For Your Good, Bloodhounds and Crime Wave.

Danna Paola started acting in movies at the age of 4! At the age of six, the young actress could already boast of roles in the soap opera “Ray of Light” and the children’s series “Maria Belen”.

In 2013, Danna made her debut in the Broadway musical Wicked, and a year later released her own clothing line. Today, the beauty is known as Lucrezia from Elite. The girl is 24 years old, and behind her she starred in eight rating shows and three films.

Lucretia’s friend, a girl named Carla, is played by the beautiful Esther Exposito in Elite. From an early age she was fond of cinema, and in 2015 she already made her debut in the television series “Viz-a-vis”.

Also, the famous beauty starred in the projects “Medical Center” and “I’m Alive”. Esther was especially fond of Elite fans: in April this year, she became the most popular Spaniard on Instagram (the social network was recognized as extremist and banned in the territory of the Russian Federation). The number of its subscribers is approaching 23 million.

A favorite of most female audiences on the Elite series, 28-year-old Jaime Lorente plays Samuel’s brother, Nano Garcia. The actor studied at the School of Dramatic Art in Murcia and in 2015 joined the group La Joven Conpania, with which he toured all over Spain three years later. Jaime can also be seen in the series “Mystery of the Old Bridge” and “Paper House”.

Jaime Lorente’s girlfriend Maria Pedraza plays schoolgirl Marina in Elite. From the age of 8, the future actress studied ballet, then, on the advice of her mother, she went to study acting.

The girl’s career began with “Instagram (The social network is recognized as extremist and banned in the territory of the Russian Federation),” noted director Esteban Garcia. In 2017, Maria got the main role in the TV series To Love, and in the same year she starred in the Paper House project, where she met Jaime.

Alvaro Rico, 23, began his acting career in 2011 in the film adaptation of La Celestina, and already in 2015 starred in an episode of Medical Center.

However, the actor gained great popularity precisely thanks to the television series Elite, where he played a guy named Polo. By the way, this year the release of two new projects with the actor’s participation was announced: “The Hunt in Monte Perdido” and “El Cid” from Amazon.

Nadia Shana was played by Mina el-Hammani in the series. She was born in Madrid, but her parents are Moroccan. Just like Esther Exposito and Alvaro Rico, the girl starred in the television series Medical Center. The project became her acting debut.

After that, Mina could be seen in the thriller El Principe District, the series Neighbors and The State. Now the actress is at the peak of her popularity. For 2021, she has already planned a role in the television series Boarding School in Las Cumbres.
