The Colombian series Ritmo Salvaje stars the actress and singer Greeicy Rendón alongside Paulina Dávila.
The arrival of Paulina Davila to acting was no accident. The recognition that she achieves today is due to the permanent study, work, and cultivation of a talent that she discovered when she was very young when, according to her parents, she “done shows.” This is the story of this actress that we see in Netflix with Wild rythm.
He says it well: “In the beginning it was like a very distant dream, but little by little I began to do things to create that path”; thus he was convincing himself of his potential and that he might travel ambitious distances. He was born in Medellín, grew up in Santa Marta, at the age of 17 he settled in Bogotá to study Visual Arts, was in Barcelona for a student exchange and returned to the Colombian capital to graduate following doing his thesis on the movement of the body, the acting and theater, work in which he had the advice of the actor Víctor Hugo Trespalacios, one of his first teachers.
Conviction and commitment to what she does emerge in Paulina’s life, her rhythm in the histrionic arts is frenetic, like Wild rythmthe series that Netflix is premiering and in which she, in the role of Antonia, is the protagonist alongside Greeicy Rendon. When he found out regarding the project he said: “I want to be there”. She traveled to Colombia, presented the audition, passed, and immediately began a rigorous preparation that required her to dance day and night, an experience that she had already had as the protagonist of Long live music (2015).
Paulina Dávila returned to Colombia for Wild Rhythm
Paulina has lived in Mexico for more than eight years, a country that gave her the opportunity to play her first role in Reset (2012), directed by Fernando Frías. From that moment she made a connection with Mexican producers and audiences. He does not assure that it was easy, but rather that the path was cleared because discipline and perseverance prevailed in that process.
Mexico City is the house that she has created for herself, to catapult her career. There she gave herself the opportunity to characterize a character that was only intended for a Mexican woman, that of Mariana Yazbek in Luis Miguel, the series, the bioseries regarding the life of the Mexican idol. Her talent, her physique and her achievement of a perfect accent made Paulina the chosen one.
It is worth insisting that this step by step in his career is the consequence of constant preparation and the learning process: the university career, the workshops with Trespalacios, with Korean companies, with the companies brought to Colombia by the Ibero-American Theater Festival of Bogotá, with Estudio Babel, with Mexican directors Alejandro Calva and Fernando Piernas; in Spain he studied with Juan Carlos Coraza. Paulina is a judicious, curious and diligent actress who always observes herself and notices the things that she might have done better.
She believes that her university career has allowed her to encompass acting with other knowledge such as philosophy and history, knowledge that undoubtedly helps in the construction of the characters. He prepares, he leaves nothing to chance; however, he considers that in the mixture of discipline and perseverance there is also a bit of luck. “I believe in luck and I feel that there are people who come into your life because they have to come,” she says.

To Antonia, her character in Wild rythm, defines her as a passionate, disciplined woman who wants to live from what she loves, who is willing to fulfill her dream and do whatever it takes to achieve it. He identifies with her in love because of what she makes of her, but not her methods. Hers, Paulina’s, is to learn, and not stop doing it or stop at work. She is doing it. While it’s broadcast Wild rythm keep rolling the series Griselda in Los Angeles, next to Sofia Vergara and Christian Tappan, directed by Andrés Baíz. Another goal accomplished. And as she herself published: a dream come true.
