Biography

En 1985, à l'âge de neuf ans, Caio a fait ses débuts à la télévision Manchete aux côtés de grands noms comme Diogo Vilela, Guilherme Osty et Zezé Polessa dans le programme humoristique Family Size. Bientôt, il se rend à Rede Globo pour participer, aux côtés de son demi-frère Jonas Torres, de la série Armação Ilimitada. Depuis lors, il a élaboré un programme d'études complet à la télévision, sur scène et, surtout, au cinéma. Toujours dans le globe, elle a réalisé Desire, Rent Belly, The Journey, Funny ... ses amours et ses péchés, Malhação, Hilda Hurricane, Chiquinha Gonzaga, l'aquarelle du Brésil, un ange tombé du ciel, le cinquième de l'enfer, le clone et Un coeur. Elle a également participé à des épisodes de séries comme Life as She Is, Brave People et Fragile Sex. En 2004, il intégra le remake du roman The Escrava Isaura, dans lequel il interpréta l'abolitionniste Geraldo, meilleur ami du protagoniste, qui tenta de préserver les visions racistes de la charmante Malvina.

Caio Junqueira a participé à une dizaine de courts métrages et à une quinzaine de longs métrages, parmi lesquels figurent Zuzu Angel, Abril Despedaçado, Almost Nada, Pour tous - Le trampoline de la victoire; et les nominés à l'Oscar central du Brésil (1998) et What Is That, Companion? (1997). Il a reçu le prix d'acteur de révélation au Festival of Gramado de 1997, réalisé par le film Buena Sorte (1996). L'une de ses œuvres les plus expressives et les plus projetées a été sa participation au film Tropa de Elite, sorti en 2007, dans lequel il incarnait l'aspirant Neto Gouveia, l'un des personnages principaux du film. Le film, qui a suscité une vive controverse et qui a déjà attiré les médias avant même ses débuts, a ramené Caio à la télévision. En 2007, l'acteur a fait une participation spéciale au roman Paraíso Tropical et au personnage principal du programme Direct Line Justice, interprétant Cabo Anselmo, tous deux sur Globo. Ensuite, il a été choisi pour le feuilleton Desejo Proibido, où il a vécu l'ingénieur Gaspar.

En 2010, il a interprété le personnage de Joca, le protagoniste de Ribeirão do Tempo. En 2018, Caio a participé à la série The Mechanism dans le rôle de Ricky, le mari de Shayenne.

The year is 1910; the place, the badlands of Northeast Brazil. Twenty-year-old Tonho is the middle son of an impoverished farm family, the Breves. He is next in line to kill and then die in an ongoing blood feud with a neighboring clan, the Ferreiras. For generations, the two families have quarreled over land. Now they are locked into a series of tit-for-tat assassinations of their sons; an eye-for-an-eye, a tooth-for-a-tooth. Embedded in this choreography of death is a particular code of ethics: "Blood has the same volume for everyone. You have no right to take more blood than was taken from you." Life is suffused with a sense of futility and stoic despair.
