Since Belinda uploaded an Instagram story with Guillermo Pfening, many questions have been generated about who is this Argentine actor who accompanies the actress in the midst of the controversy generated by the leak of a conversation with her ex-boyfriend Christian Nodal.

Both Pfening and the singer from “Light without gravity” appear together in the Netflix series, “Welcome to Eden”, about a group of young people who end up in the middle of a secret society after being invited to a party on a “supposedly” desert island.

However, the work of the Argentine actor is perhaps not as well known, so we will tell you more about his lifetime.

Pfening was born on December 9, 1978 in Córdoba, Argentina, according to his IMDb profile. Additionally, the site of Paula Aisenberg, artistic representative, mentions that the actor studied Combined Arts at the University of Buenos Aires and acting training with Raúl Serrano and Guillermo Angeleri.

Started his career in the film by director Héctor Babenco “Illuminated Heart”, released in 1998 and the following year he went on to be on the small screen, when he gave life to the character of Facundo Toledo in the telenovela “Champions of life”.

For several years he continued to work on films such as “Rodrigo, lapelicula” (1998), The result of love (2007), Belgrano (2010), The boss: X-ray of a crime (2015) and “The Forest of Dogs” (2019). Other of your outstanding works is “No one watches us” (2017), for which he received the award for best actor at the Tribeca Film Festival and at the Ceará Ibero-American Film Festival.

In an interview with the American Cinéphile YouTube channel, Pfening told how he got to Spain: “The landing took place in 2019 to make ‘Foodie Love’, an HBO series by Isabel Coixet. She had seen a movie I made in New York called Nobody Looks at Us, she was the co-producer, and when she saw it she called me to do ‘Foodie Love’. From there I got an agent in Spain and made ‘El practitioner’, a film starring Mario Casas. And from there it was that they called me to do the first season of ‘Welcome to Eden’”.

In it he also talked about what the energy was like on the set of the Netflix series in which he plays Erik, founder of the Eden Foundation: “Also at some point, since they were so young, I was a bit the container of various situations, a bit the caretaker, but we always had a lot of fun and worked very well, very good actors.”

The rumor about the romance between Guillermo Pfening and Belinda is due to the images that the actress has shared on his Instagram, among which is a video with a heart, which caught the attention of his followers. However, it was not the only one because the actor also publishes a photo of the actress looking at the sea with the phrase “Fly high as you know!”.
