Lionel Messi it never ceases to amaze. And we’re not talking about his endless records or the 800 goals he’s about to score. Let’s go with a Leo out of context. On Monday he appeared on a grill in Palermo and revolutionized the neighborhood with hundreds of people flocking to greet him. But, far from being frightened by the human tide, he decided to leave the place and wave goodbye to the crowd. Tuesday evening, while he was about to have dinner with Marcelo Tinelli, he rolled down the window of the truck to say hello to a girl and his image went viral by the millions. Common type stuff and not so much. Is that now, after winning the World Cup in Qatar 2022, it will be possible to meet the best footballer in the world from his appearance as an actor.
Is that Leo will have a special participation in Los Protectores, the original Star+ series produced by Adrián Suar that tells the story of football and the business of the representatives that has already had its first season. The first eight episodes were a success, and now the saga which also includes Gustavo Bermúdez and Andrés Parra (who shone in the role of Pablo Escobar) will have the presence of the best player in the world.
So far, hardly a trailer has been broadcast on the official networks of Star+, but after the dinner that Suar shared with Messi in Don Julio, some anecdotes about the meeting emerged and El Chueco revealed some details about the participation of crack in his series.
“We filmed in France with him performing. If you’ve seen him play football well, watch him perform. He does everything well, he also acts well. He is a character actor. You’ve done very well, they’ll see,” he told TN, where he provided a note apologizing for the Monday night meeting.
Although the best thing was the return that Leo’s mother made on the performance of the captain of the Selection as an actor: “I enjoyed it because Celia saw it and said: ‘It’s not because he’s my son, but he acts better of all of you”.
Furthermore, Suar recounted that, far from being intimidated by the tumult that arose outside the grill where they dined, on the 10th he decided he wanted to say goodbye to people before leaving: “We had dinner eating, drinking and talking, and we began to listen to ‘Guys’. Leo watched, it was getting louder and at one point it boiled over. Leo said, “Calm down, I want to say hello.” Leo’s intention was to say hello, but he couldn’t. Love is so great, what happened to this Selection, what happens to each of us…”
