Rio de Janeiro, Brazil

Diogo de Brito Sales comes from an Afro-Indigenous heritage. A humble guy who was born and bred in a working-class family, in Rio de Janeiro. He is a bit shy at first. But very friendly once you get to know him well. A great person to work with as a team member, who can take directions easily and who treats everyone with equally respect. Due to the influence of his father, a Brazilian percussionist, he grew up playing percussion and "Capoeira" and found himself drawn to performing arts at an early age. His career started, as a percussionist/actor at age sixteen, on a mainstream stage. And, being an ensemble actor from "Nós do Morro", a community theatre company based in a slum. He then was invited, by Cicely Berry, to "The RSC Complete Works Festival". In 2009, he moved to London, to further pursue his dream of becoming an international actor, after playing shows at the "Young Vic" and "Barbican". Afterwards, he started training at the Identity Drama School of Acting. Years later, he graduated from the prestigious Royal Central School of Speech and Drama with an MA in Acting for Screen. Diogo's on-screen debut was a recurring role in season 6 of "Game of Thrones" on HBO. He also starred in the first episode of the Brazilian broadcaster Rede Globo's prison drama series "Carcereiros" (Jailers). Which premiered worldwide at MIPTV's MIPDrama Screenings in Cannes, winning the Grand Jury Prize in the full episode category. Diogo's commitment, motivation and passion for the craft have garnered remarkable achievements in his career so far. Allowing him to hone his raw talent, added to his perseverance, resilience, and drive. This means that he will continue dedicating himself to his development as an actor over the course of his lifetime.

Additional InformationAt the moment, I am actually based between London (UK) and Vigo (Spain). But occasionally I go back to Brazil to visit family or whenever I have work to do. By the way, for projects in Spain please contact 'Decara Actores' (Beatriz Oliete at info@decara-actores.com) Ps: I am a very physical actor. I have played a lot of different animals, on stage, in the past. Almost the whole zoo lol. Next week, I will be going over to Portugal to play an Indigenous character, the lead, in an Indie short film. I've also just finished shooting a feature film called "Rich Flu", directed by Galder Gaztelu-Urrutia. And soon will be seen playing, one of the leads, in a brand new series for HBO Max, called “Pollos Sin Cabeza” (Headless Chickens). For more information on my latest achievements.
