He has a naturally occurring Mallen streak caused by Poliosis, a rare lack of pigment in the hair — a feature that has become part of his recognizable screen image.

Francisco Marquez was once mistaken for a vandal at a Karaoke bar in Kyoto, Japan and forcibly removed by five bouncers. The real culprit had trashed the men's restroom - shattering mirror, breaking toilets, and forcing the bar to shut down. Despite the chaos, no one was seriously harmed, but Francisco found himself at the center of a bizarre case of mistaken identity.

Francisco's first-ever role was as a Nutcracker soldier in "The Nutcracker"-a part he didn't exactly choose. Reluctantly thrust into the role, he took the stage, unknowingly marking the beginning of his acting journey.
