His colleagues in the profession say goodbye to him with affection and respect.

“Have a good trip, Florin. A beautiful giant with a heart of gold,” actor Fernando Cayo wrote on Instagram, who shared a filming set with him in Mar de plastic.

Opritescu was in the “post-transplant” period, with “optimism and patience” until he regained his “acting life.”

Although he always had a penchant for the artistic world, he studied Economics. In 2000 he emigrated to Spain, where he began working as a cook until he was able to focus on acting. He participated in many series, including the aforementioned Sea of ​​Plastic, She is your father, Charon, Unity, and Serve and protect.
