Juan Pablo Medina (born October 22, 1977) is a renowned American actor of Mexican descent, whose career spans film, television, and theater. He is widely admired not only for his versatility across genres ranging from romantic comedy to intense drama, but also for his extraordinary personal resilience in facing significant health challenges.
He began his career in the telenovela Cuando seas mía (2001), but his definitive leap to international popularity came with director Manolo Caro. He stood out in productions such as the film No sé si cortarme las venas o dejármelas largas (2013) and, especially, for his role as Diego Olvera in the hit Netflix series La casa de las flores (2018-2020), which gave him significant global exposure. In 2021, Medina suffered a health crisis that resulted in the amputation of his right leg.
His recovery process has made him a symbol of overcoming adversity, returning to acting with high-impact projects. In 2026, he reached a new milestone in his career by starring in Doc, Netflix's adaptation of the Italian hit Doc - Nelle tue mani. In this series, he plays a doctor who loses his memory of the last twelve years of his life, a role that has been critically acclaimed for the emotional depth and authenticity he brings to the character.
In addition to his artistic work, Medina uses his platform to promote inclusion and the normalization of prosthetic use, collaborating with social organizations and demonstrating that his acting ability remains intact and more powerful than ever.
