All fans of the exciting adventure called "Lost" remembered the fat good man Hurley, and at least ninety percent fell in love with him. An open, friendly and positive hero has become Garcia's hallmark. Jorge was previously able to successfully realize his acting potential, but it was this role that brought him real fame and became the key to further success in the creative field.

Education and early career

Jorge Garcia's career began in college, where he discovered the extraordinary makings of a real comedian. Fellow students appreciated the talent of the future actor and encouraged his participation in student productions. The love of the theater was not the only feature that distinguished Garcia from the rest. Jorge was far from the most ordinary student. His habits, addictions, and accompanying simplicity of disposition often discouraged his peers.

For example, Garcia, without the slightest embarrassment,indulged in the most real gluttony, absorbing an unthinkable amount of fatty and very harmful food. For this reason, the nickname Robin Bobbin Barabek easily stuck to the teenager Jorge Garcia, whose weight is still impressive. However, the love of humor allowed the young actor to evaluate his nickname from a positive point of view, and after a while he stopped being offended. Currently, Jorge is the creator of a giant collection of various food packages, usually fast food, and is very proud of it.

Game and humor

Comedy skills have played a major role in the development of Garcia's career. Jorge successfully continued his student acting career in one of the theater studios in Beverly Hills. There was an opportunity to take part in castings for the filming of serials popular at that time.

Despite his obvious creative inclination towards comedies, Jorge did not limit himself to this genre. Participation in humorous productions and stand-ups alternated with serious projects, among which the series “Lost” is especially worth noting.

How Jorge became a member of one of the most popular TV shows

It is noteworthy that, unlike other characters in the series, Hurley was not listed in the original script. And paradoxically, a good-natured fat man with a clearly comedic bent claimed the role of Sawyer. The role of a desperate handsome Jorge bypassed, but the creators of the series could not part with a colorful guy, and especially for him came up with Hugo Reis.

The character gradually acquired its history - Garcia himself did not know about his past. Jorge liked it, he, along with the fans of the series, invented a life for his hero, blindly putting forward certain assumptions about the development of events. This gave the project a special charm.

Charming Hurley

As far as audience attitudes towards certain characters are concerned, Hurley was in a very advantageous position. All the other characters now and then switched from the light side to the dark, and vice versa, Hugo Reis remained the same charmingly positive simpleton who found ways to enjoy life even on the island. He also skillfully looked for wise and correct words that inspired other heroes to actions that met with the active approval of the audience.

Hurley's character has become not just an example of kindness and spontaneity, but also a serious motivator for a large number of viewers.

Private life

Participation in the Lost project changed not only Garcia's professional life, but also his personal one. On the set, he met his future wife, the beautiful Emily. In 2005, the couple registered their relationship. The tabloids were full of images of happy Emily and Jorge Garcia. The photos showed their participation in various awards, receptions, shows, where the newlyweds smiled happily at the cameras and held each other's hands. The success of Garcia in the professional field and in his personal life has become for many an example of how, having a very specific appearance,You can succeed in all areas of life at once. The personification of such an example was Jorge Garcia, height (182 cm), weight (over 180 kg) and whose appearance distinguishes him from typical Hollywood beauties, but thanks to the charm inherent in him, the man is not inferior to them one iota.

New projects

Professional success also rushed uphill. Before Garcia had time to take a break from filming in the popular TV series Lost, he received an offer to star in another Abrams project called Alcatraz. Despite the fact that the series itself was a failure, critics praised Jorge Garcia's work in it quite highly. Probably for this reason, a serial role in the TV show Hawaii 5: 0 again "fell" on him, which turned out to be an order of magnitude more successful than Alcatraz. Jorge only joined the cast in the fourth season, but that didn't stop him from being recognized and well received by the public.

Nevertheless, while Hugo Reis remains the most significant role of Jorge Garcia, whose filmography is likely to be replenished with new, no less striking characters in the near future. As it turned out, not all participants in the show "Lost" were lucky enough to become part of such a large number of projects. Therefore, despite the inconsistency of the success of certain attempts to take his place in the acting environment, Jorge Garcia remains one of the most successful Lost participants, receiving offer after offer and, as a result, new opportunities for creative self-realization, and already far beyond the comedy genre. Without a doubt,more than once we will see a talented and charming fat man on TV screens and once again we will be convinced that the secret of success does not always lie in appearance.
