The actor preferred to keep the image of the former minister in the ’90s to build his role in the series about Carlos Menem.
Martín “Campi” Campilongo explained why he chose not to meet Domingo Cavallo to prepare his role in the biographical series of Carlos Menem. The actor plays the former Minister of Economy in fiction directed by Ariel Winogra, which is already a rage on platforms.
Campi: “They offered me to join Domingo Cavallo, but I preferred not to do it”
“They offered me together with Cavallo, but I preferred not to do it. I met him in the ’90s and I wanted to keep that image”Revea Campi, who recalled that at that time he frequently visited the Casa Rosada thanks to his work in Videomatchwhere he met both Cavallo and the former president.
As he said, “He now has another crust, another maturation and other things to mature. I didn’t want to influence me.”in reference to his decision not to meet with the former minister for the preparation of the character.
The humorist had already played Cavallo in humorous key in Great brother -in -law In 2001, but this new role demanded another approach: “I had done it when a cagadón had been sent. When Ariel Winograd called me, it was not to make a cartoon, but a portrait”he explained, he added: “The observation had already done it and now I had to change the stroke”.
Although he still did not see the complete series because he is in Uruguay, he said that “It exploded through the air, because everyone is calling me”. He could only see the first chapter.
He also valued the tone chosen by the director: “Winograd is thanks to have made parts like comedy, because if it is not unfeasible, it is a downturn. It is so fun what you do. You see that my face appears and says: ‘Remember this character'”.
Finally, he highlighted the learning process involved in the project: “As a citizen, I had breakfast of a lot of things that I did not know. The ambition, the boom and the fall of Cavallo. I did not know the entertainment, I learned when I made the series, as well as the relationship with Menem and the way he made it grow and fried it,”.
