Resines to be feted at inaugural ceremony
Tenerife is set to become the epicentre of Spain’s audiovisual industry as actor Antonio Resines receives the Honorary Award at the first edition of the Golden Rings Awards. The Circle of Spanish Series Professionals has chosen to bestow this recognition on one of the most emblematic figures on Spanish screens, whose career is inextricably linked to the history of national television and cinema over the past four decades.
Gala to bring together sector’s finest
The gala, which promises to gather the cream of the industry, will take place at the Santa Cruz de Tenerife Exhibition Centre on 20 June. The award recognises the “interpretive excellence” of an actor who has appeared in more than 30 series, playing lead roles, supporting characters and iconic cameos. From classic productions for public and private broadcasters to the recent phenomenon of global streaming platforms, Resines has demonstrated a unique versatility.
The organisers highlight that his presence has been a constant in the evolution of Spanish fiction, establishing him as a benchmark for both industry professionals and the general public who have grown up with his characters.
‘Few actors symbolise quality like Resines’
The president of the Golden Rings Awards, Joan Álvarez, has stressed that few actors symbolise the quality of Spanish professionals as faithfully as Resines. According to Álvarez, the actor possesses an innate ability to navigate genres as diverse as thriller, drama and highbrow farce. His gaze, capable of conveying nuances that sometimes surpass the script itself, has left its mark on masterpieces such as José Luis Cuerda’s ‘Amanece que no es poco’, where his double act with Luis Ciges forms part of Spain’s cultural heritage.
Santa Cruz selection boosts island’s credentials
The choice of Santa Cruz de Tenerife as the venue for this first edition reinforces the island’s positioning as a key territory for audiovisual production and recognition. The Circle of Spanish Series Professionals aims with these awards to highlight the work of those who, like Resines, have managed to adapt to the technological and narrative changes in the sector, while always maintaining a standard of quality that is now being honoured on Canary Islands soil.
A career spanning decades and genres
Antonio Resines’ career is not limited to the sheer number of titles, but to the depth of his impact on popular culture. The organising body highlights his crucial role in the transition towards production for global platforms, where he remains a leading actor. His ability to connect with the camera and bring humanity to each character is the central axis of an award that is born with the ambition of becoming the ultimate reference for series produced in Spain.
