The entire Spanish artistic community is anxiously awaiting news about Eloy Ebra’s health. The acclaimed and versatile actor and musician is facing one of the biggest challenges of his life—a complex, hours-long surgery to remove a tumor. He personally announced the upcoming procedure the day before, reaching out to his fans and friends through social media.
In his video message, the artist did not hide the gravity of the situation. He explained that he is about to undergo a very difficult and lengthy procedure, expected to take about eight hours. Seeking support, Ebra drew an unexpected yet touching parallel with the iconic anime “Dragon Ball.” He asked everyone who cares to send him their positive energy, just like how the main character, Son Goku, gathers strength for his powerful ‘Genki Dama’ move. The actor expressed confidence that such collective support would help him get through this tough ordeal, which has already lasted a long time.
To understand the scale of the response his message received, one only needs to look at Eloy’s vibrant and diverse career. He made his name in Spanish cinema, debuting in David Trueba’s film “La buena vida,” and achieved wider recognition after his lead role in the landmark movie by Fernando León de Aranoa, “Barrio.” His filmography includes popular projects such as “Torrente 2: Misión en Marbella” and “Manolito Gafotas,” as well as appearances in cult TV shows like “Muchachada Nui.”
Ébora’s talent goes far beyond acting. He has made a name for himself as a stand-up comedian, voice actor, and DJ. Under the pseudonym TCap Leviatán, he has released several rap and reggae albums. From 2018 to 2020, he was also a member of the legendary ska-punk band Ska-P. His artistic achievements have been recognized by industry peers and include awards for Best Actor at international film festivals.
The response to his call for support was immediate. The Spanish show business community rallied around their colleague. Antonia San Juan, who is currently battling cancer herself, wished him a successful operation. Bárbara Goenaga, whose husband is also fighting a serious illness, assured that she would keep him in her thoughts and send him all her energy. Comedian Susi Caramelo also left an optimistic message, expressing confidence in a positive outcome for his treatment. This wave of solidarity highlights the deep respect and affection the artist enjoys among his peers.
