Verónica Castro is about to release the film ‘When I am young’ in which she shares credits with Natasha Dupeyrón and which could be the last in her career.
“This film is like a refresh for me, because I recorded it three years ago and it may be the last film I make in my life,” he said in an interview for Caras magazine, where he also spoke about how complicated it has been to deal with the pandemic, with its health problems in the spine, as well as his appearance in said film that he filmed three years ago, as they tried to cover the effects that the passage of time has caused on his face and body.
“ Even my eyebrows covered them. And yes, one more gray hair or one less gray hair, what difference does it make. If they had waited a few more years for me, I would have come out with completely natural white hair”, he commented.
Cristian Castro’s mother had been away from the screen for some time. Her last job was in the movie ‘Dime When You’, where her son Michel Castro officiated as director of photography.
In the film ‘When I am young’, and which could mark his retirement from the industry, Castro plays the character of Malena, a widow of more than 70 years that is perceived as a burden for his family when, suddenly, he mysteriously regains the physical appearance of when he was 20 years old.
“If Veronica, the artist, speaks, she will say that everything is divine, splendid and wonderful, that she is very happy. But if the woman should speak, it has been the most difficult time I have lived in my entire existence, “he explained at the same time that he recalled the fall he suffered when he was riding an elephant, during the recordings of the reality show ‘Big Brother’, in 2005, and which caused several health problems.
“I have many operations, because since I fell from the elephant, I underwent several surgeries; now I have false cervicals, the entire neck is made of titanium, I lost almost the entire spinal cord and had to rebuild my back. There were several operations and the truth is that one does not turn out well, although the doctor who operated on me did wonders”, Castro added.
However, the television star finally shared how she accepts the passage of time and what her image represents today: “I like my 70 years, my gray hair and wrinkles. I like my dropouts from my head, because sometimes I lose my cool and I don’t remember things, but I have a wonderful audience that reminds me of my entire career. That public has made me return to the past and I am very happy, “she confessed.
The truth is that behind the impeccable career of Verónica Castro there is a lot of effort and dedication.
