He came to prominence as an action star in the Philippine cinema during the 1980s up to the early 1990s. == Career == Fernandez was born at 8:36 PM on March 3, 1952 at Mary Johnston Hospital in Tondo, Manila, the son of the late film director Gregorio Fernandez.〔 Both his parents were from Lubao, Pampanga, which he considered his hometown. He made his film debut at the age of three, appearing in ''Luksang Tagumpay'' (1956), which was directed by his father. He also appeared in another film of his father's, ''Emily'' (1960). Fernandez started his active film career while a student at the University of Santo Tomas, when he was signed to a contract by Sampaguita Pictures in 1970.〔 He was first featured by Sampaguita Pictures in ''For Your Mama'' (1970), then paired with Connie Angeles in ''Sweet Matutina'' (1970). Fernandez spent the next few years in teenage parts until he made his breakthrough as an action star with ''Bitayin si Baby Ama'' (1976).〔 His viability as an action star was further enhanced with the box-office success of ''Ang Leon, Ang Tigre at ang Alamid'' (1979).〔 Beginning with ''..Baby Ama'', a biopic of a well-known Filipino criminal, Fernandez specialized in portraying true-to-life characters. One of his notable action films is ''Markang Bungo'' (Skull Mark), a film based on a true story, where he portrayed the well-known Baguio City police officer Bobby Ortega, was released in 1992. From this film came a signature line of Fernandez's, "''Walang personalan, trabaho lang''" ("Strictly business, nothing personal"), which has since been cited as among the most memorable quotes in Philippine cinema by QTV's ''Ang Pinaka'' television program. ''Iligpit si Bobby Ortega, Markang Bungo 2'' (Execute Bobby Ortega, Skull Mark 2) is a sequel that was released in 1995. Aside for portraying a real police officer, he was cast in the lead roles for the biopics of Filipino politicians Alfredo Lim, Vincent Crisologo, Rodrigo Duterte and Ping Lacson. In the film ''Lagalag: The Eddie Fernandez Story'', he starred as Eddie Fernandez, a Filipino actor during the 1970s and the father of Pops Fernandez. With the decline of production of Filipino action films during the 2000s, Fernandez turned to television roles. In the short-lived GMA Network sitcom ''Da Boy, en Da Girl'', he starred opposite Rosanna Roces. He also played as a supporting role in other TV series in GMA like ''Twin Hearts'' and ''Atlantika''. He was also the host of the docu-drama "Kasangga". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rudy Fernandez (actor)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
