As soon as the tune of ‘Bella Ciao’ starts playing, does your mind instantly drift to that mastermind who made the impossible possible? Yes, I’m talking about the iconic Money Heist Professor—the character who captivated the world with his intellect, mystery, and charm. But do you know his real name, or what his style is like off-screen? He is none other than Álvaro Morte. This Spanish actor hasn’t just won over millions of hearts worldwide with his mysterious ‘Professor’ persona—his style has also become a topic of admiration among fashion enthusiasts.
Álvaro Morte is not just an actor; he’s a visionary with a deep love for theatre running through his veins. Once, he dreamt of performing at London’s Duke of York’s Theatre after watching the play ‘King Lear’ there—and today, that dream has come true. His artistic spirit is further reflected in his own theatre company, 300 Pistols. Though the company was temporarily shut down due to the pandemic, he is now back in Spain and planning new productions. This unwavering passion and commitment to the arts have established him as a true artist.
The unexpected global success of Money Heist changed his life overnight. While the show received only moderate success in Spain, it became a massive hit after Netflix introduced it to international audiences. The sudden surge of followers felt “strange” to him, as he admitted, “No one is prepared for something like this.” Still, this surprising fame brought him immense love from all over the world—something he and the entire Money Heist team have deeply appreciated. Following advice from director Lynette, he even practiced dance as a warm-up technique, revealing a disciplined side of his personality that adds a natural rhythm and confidence to his every move.
In this blog post, we’re diving deep into Álvaro Morte’s coolest style moments—where the intellectual charm of his character blends seamlessly with the personal elegance of the man behind the glasses. Whether it was his appearance at the San Sebastián Film Festival in Madrid (July 11, 2025), the Netflix 10th Anniversary Celebration (June 10, 2025), or the ‘Raka’ photoshoot (November 11, 2024)—each moment wasn’t just a fashion statement, but a glimpse into his charismatic personality.
