Adan Canto
Mexican actor Adan Canto was born in Acuña, Mexico, on the Texas border, in 1981. Canto got his start in his native country, doing a smattering of small roles in various Mexican television shows and short films. His first big opportunity was with the American crime drama series "The Following" (Fox 2013-15); his portrayal of Paul Torres, a loyal follower of cult leader and serial killer Joe Carroll, turned out to be his international breakthrough. It led to an opportunity to take part in one of Hollywood's most successful franchises. In Bryan Singer's "X-Men: Days of Future Past " (2014), Canto took on the role of Sunspot, a mutant from the future who was one of several new mutants introduced in the film. Even before the film was released, Canto moved on to land a major role in the sitcom "Mixology" (ABC 2014), portraying bartender Dominic. Despite the series' advance hype, it was canceled after a single season. In preparation for the next stage of his career, Canto turned his talents to writing, directing and starring in a short film titled "Before Tomorrow" (2014). He went on to appear in the films "2 Hearts" (2020), "Bruised" (2020) and "The Devil Below" (2021). More recently, he had a regular role in the series "The Cleaning Lady" (Fox, 2022- ). Adan Canto died on January 8, 2024 at the age of 42.
