The great Argentine actor Darío Grandinetti affirms that he did not want to “see himself unable to play the judge” protagonist of the Honor series that today arrives on the Atresplayer Premium premiere schedule. And it is that the series adapts the Israeli production Kvodo, which had its American version with Your Honor, in which the protagonist was neither more nor less than Bryan Cranston (Better call Saul). “Cranston is a great actor, one of the ones I admire the most, so I decided to stop watching the series because I didn’t want it to influence my work too much because in the end I was going to want to do it like him, perfect, and I had to do it. in my own way”, sums up Grandinetti.
morality on the test
Honor presents us with an emotional, criminal and legal thriller that addresses, summarizes the official synopsis, “the moral dilemma of a reputable judge who will have to decide what he is willing to do to save his son after being involved in a deadly accident that could ruin his life.” life”.
Grandinetti plays Judge Martín Romero, a man of integrity and reputation who faces a plan to protect his son, putting all his moral and professional convictions to the test. And it is that the victim of the outrage committed by Álex, his son, is a member of a mafia family and Romero knows that, if his guilt is known, one way or another, he will be convicted.
“Spectators are going to find a series that talks about a dilemma that this character faces regarding what he should be and what one can resort to when it comes to facing an extreme situation,” says Grandinetti. “When the life of his son is at stake, everything is understood a little more, it is understood. I am a father too, I began to travel there, to imagine things to better build the character”, highlights the protagonist of titles such as the Hierro series or the Pedro Almodóvar film Talk to her.
Both in Honor and Hierro, the Argentine interpreter believes that “the relationships of the characters are very enriching and are being used much more than before, as in Scandinavian thrillers. Action, resolution of cases or violence are not necessarily in the foreground. There is a lot of character situation, which is much more attractive for the actors”.
system failures
This thriller that opens today also has an important part reflecting the rulings of the judicial system. “There are three powers in democracy. The only positions that are not subject to election are those of Thursdays, which are eternal and hereditary. I say this mainly because of things that we are seeing in my country, in Argentina, that are being questioned,” reflects Grandinetti, adding that “there are a lot of privileges that the judicial caste has that the rest of the citizens do not have. What happens is that, in this case, it is a judge that we are going to justify ”, he sentences.
The series is shot in Seville and Cádiz, which in the opinion of the Argentine actor, in addition to showing the greatness of both cities, “puts the local point.”
