Hector Bonilla, an 83-year-old veteran actor, died of natural causes on November 25 in Mexico City, Mexico. His son, Fernando Bonilla, verified the tragic news of his father’s death on social media by writing a moving eulogy.
“I really want to talk about my father and keep talking about him.” But I believe the best description of my employer I have ever read was written by Victor Hugo Rascón Banda in 1993 for The Process, in a review of the play The Foreigner. I want to share these with you. This is my dad: “Bonilla is a popular and beloved performer among college students, intellectuals, bankers, housewives and working people.”
He continued:
“It’s a remarkable example of ubiquity; Announced Bacardi, performed in the soap opera Trapada, directed The Foreign, modeled clothing for the magazine Varón Mexico, starred in Snakes and Stairs, and oversaw an important cultural project in association with the city with the regent.” And it all happened at the same time.”
Although neither Hector Bonilla’s son nor any other representative has revealed the reason for his death, many newspapers reported that the legendary Mexican actor was suffering from kidney cancer. After news of Bonilla’s death became public, condolences began to flood the internet, with the Mexican government’s Minister of Culture tweeting about it.
