When he was six years old, Carlos Gallardo fantasized about being involved in the world of cinema. He did not know he would do it, but his greatest desire was to enter that marvelous dream world. It came at no surprise, then, when at a young age he decided on a career as an Actor / filmmaker. From the day he made this decision on, he let his imagination run Carlos began by making home videos, but by the time he turned 13, he had become a full-fledged director: 'I made my first movie with an 8 mm camera loaned to me by a friend of my father', he reminisces about his early experiences in film. Now, he has become an expert in his field. Inspired by well-known directors such as John Carpenter (I) and George Miller (II), this lover of Mexican culture and tradition has never ceased to expand his creative vision behind and in front of the camera. Without a doubt, the project which brought him the most recognition from Hollywood was the incredibly successful film. EL Mariachi, El (1992) where he participated as an actor and producer. Together with his close friend Robert Rodriguez (I), the young adventurer took his work to Los Angeles. To his great surprise, the film gained the attention of several studios. Carlos Gallardo, Irish/Spanish and the youngest of three was beginning to make a name for himself in the world of Hollywood filmmaking. After his success with Mariachi, El (1992) Carlos proceeded to work as an actor and co- producer on the film which would help to launch the English-language careers of Salma Hayek and Antonio Banderas (I): Desperado (1995). This movie opened the door to many new projects, such as Bravo (1998) and Single Action (1998), in which Carlos filled the roles of producer, director and screenwriter. Having proved himself to the world, today Carlos Gallardo is fulfilling a promise he made to himself years ago - to make his film Bandido (2004) a reality by bringing it to the big screen.
