Biography

José María Coronado García was born in Madrid on 14 August 1957, son to a well-off family from Chamberí. He started studies in medicine and law, but later dropped out, accepting an offer to participate in a commercial shot in Menorca. Before joining the acting school of Cristina Rota, Coronado worked as a model, choreographer, and opened a restaurant. Following the acting courses, he landed a small role in the stage play El público, performed in 1987 in Madrid. His debut in a feature film came with a performance in Waka Waka.

He won several awards for his performance as the lead actor in the 2011 film No Rest for the Wicked, including a Goya, a Sant Jordi Award, and a Fotogramas de Plata award.

He is also known for his romantic life, with affairs such as the Spaniard beauty queen Amparo Muñoz, Isabel Pantoja, Paola Dominguín [ca], Esther Cañadas and Mónica Molina. He had one son (Nicolás Coronado [es]) with Paola Dominguín and one daughter with Mónica Molina.
