    Biography

    Luis Gerónimo Abreu was born in Caracas on 7 September 1972 to Luis Abreu, an actor and theater director and Haydée Ascanio, television and film screenwriter and producer. He began his acting career at an early age through the influence of his parents that were in the performing arts.[1]

    He returned to Venezuela to star in several Venevisión telenovelas such as Ciudad Bendita in 2006, Arroz con Leche in 2007 and La vida entera in 2008.

    He obtained another starring role in 2009 in the telenovela Un Esposo para Estela alongside Daniela Alvarado. The telenovela was very successful in Venezuela where it maintained high broadcast ratings.

    In 2011, he was cast as the protagonist in Martin Hahn's mystery telenovela alongside former beauty queen and Miss Venezuela winner Mariángel Ruiz in La viuda joven. The telenovela became a major hit that year.
