Brazilian cinema and international roles
Rodrigo Santoro is a Brazilian actor known for Bicho de Sete Cabeças, 300 and the series Westworld.
A career across Brazil and beyond
Santoro began working on Brazilian television before his film breakthrough in Laís Bodanzky’s Bicho de Sete Cabeças. Sony Pictures Classics’ Carandiru press notes identify his role as Neto and record acting awards at Brazilian festivals.
He appeared in Carandiru and later worked across international productions including Love Actually. His representative’s biography places those films alongside continuing Brazilian work such as Heleno.
In 300, Santoro played the Persian king Xerxes, a role he revisited in the sequel. He later appeared in HBO’s Westworld as Hector Escaton.
His film and television work moves between different languages and production settings, while Brazilian projects remain part of the career described by his representative.
