- Actor

Entering the Mexican film industry in the 1930s, it didn't take Arturo
de Córdova long to become a major star, specializing in action and
adventure films. At the height of his popularity he was beckoned to
Hollywood in an attempt to make him a "Latin lover" type in the mold of
Ricardo Montalban, Fernando Lamas and Gilbert Roland. However, after a few attempts in
lower-budget films, de Córdova returned to Mexico to continue his
career there, eventually surpassing his previous fame and also becoming
a major star in South America and Spain.
