: Pedro Porcel in Novios 68 (1967)

Pedro Porcel was a character actor, active in Spanish films and television throughout the 1950's and 60's.

He was born Pedro Porcel Bares on February 27th 1910 in Jaraíz de la Vera, Cáceres, Spain. He was the younger brother of actress Carmen Porcel, the brother-in-law of actor Luis Vilar and the uncle of actors José and Lola Vilar. Pedro was married to actress Asunción Montijano, with whom he had one daughter, Marisa Porcel, who was also an actress.

He is known to have been working as a theatre actor from at least the mid-1940's, with his earliest-known film appearance coming in 1952. It appears that he continued to work predominantly as a theatre actor throughout the 1950's, with his film and television work becoming more prominent through the 60's.
