José María Blasco Etxeguren, affectionately known as Txema Blasco, is a Spanish actor born in Vitoria, Álava, in the year 1941. Despite entering the cinematic realm at the ripe age of 50, his journey as an actor began much earlier. Prior to his big break, Blasco had already honed his craft by participating in amateur theater groups, where his true passion for acting was nurtured.
As he grew older, Blasco's passion for acting only intensified, ultimately leading him to leave behind his accounting job at a metallurgical company to dedicate himself fully to the art of interpretation.
