Eduardo Gómez Manzano (27 July 1951 â€" 28 July 2019) was a Spanish
actor who was born in Madrid, Spain.Gómez began acting late in life.
In his early forties, he was accompanying a friend to a shooting. The
production team persuaded him to say a few phrases to the camera.
Andrés Pajares, a comedian and actor, saw him during the production
and asked him whether he acted. Gómez answered that he was not an
actor but if he paid him, he would act. Of the experience, Gómez has
said, "The next day I went, he paid me and to this day! [...] What has
happened to me doesn't happen to many people. I'm very happy."He went
on to perform in small parts in Spanish television and cinema,
including parts in the Goya Award-winning movies La comunidad and La
lengua de las mariposas. He later appeared in a sequel of Santiago
Segura's Torrente series, Torrente 3: El Protector. He also had a part
in the movie version of the legendary Spanish comic strip Mortadelo y
Filemón.
