Itziar Castro i Rivadulla (14 February 1977 – 8 December 2023) was a Spanish actress known mainly for her role as Gоya Fernández in Locked Up and participating in films such as Champions or Skins, for which she was nominated to the Goya Award for Best New Actress.[1][2]

Biography

[edit]

Itziar Castro i Rivadulla was born in Barcelona on 14 February 1977.[3][4] Her professional career dates back to 2002, when she participated in the feature film Noche de fiesta. She landed her first role in a feature film in Unconscious (2003).[5] Later, she participated in fictional roles for both television and cinema, including in El cor de la ciutat or Algo que celebrar on television and in Blancanieves or La sexta alumna in cinema.[6] In 2017, she signed for the main cast of Eduardo Casanova's film Skins,[7] for which she was nominated for a Goya Award for Best New Actress and won the Actors and Actresses Union award in the same category.[8][9]

In 2018, she was part of the main cast of the television series Locked Up in the role of Goya Fernández, which earned her notoriety.[10] In addition, she participates in the feature films Matar a Dios[11] and Campeones, and made a cameo in the second season of Paquita Salas, portraying the stage manager of the Tarazona Festival. In July 2018, she signed on to play the acting teacher of the academy of Operación Triunfo 2018, replacing Javier Ambrossi and Javier Calvo.[12] On October 31, just over a month after the edition started, it was learned that the actress was leaving her job in the program, apparently a decision taken unilaterally by the program's management.[13]

In 2019, she participated in the feature films El cerro de los dioses by Daniel M. Caneiro[14] and ¿Qué te juegas? by Inés de León.[15] In 2020, she made a cameo in Woody Allen's film Rifkin's Festival and starred in the Fox España series Vis a vis: El Oasis,[16] as well as having a recurring role in the HBO Spain series One Way or Another as Choni.[17] She is also one of the protagonists of Historias lamentables, a film by Javier Fesser for Amazon Prime Video.[18] In December 2020, her signing was announced as the main character for the first Netflix musical series in Spain Once Upon a Time... Happily Never After directed by Manolo Caro.[19]
