Biography

Daniel and Luis Moncada, Honduran-American twin brothers who have made a profound and lasting impression on the entertainment industry, have effortlessly captured the hearts and imaginations of audiences worldwide with their captivating portrayals of the infamous characters, Leonel and Marco Salamanca, on the groundbreaking AMC crime drama series Breaking Bad, which initially aired from 2008 to 2010, and its highly anticipated spin-off, Better Call Saul, which premiered in 2016 and went on to enjoy a remarkable six-season run until its conclusion in 2022.

Notably, it is worth mentioning that despite the depiction of Leonel and Marco as twins in their on-screen personas, the real-life age disparity between the brothers Luis and Daniel is quite significant, with Luis being approximately three years older than Daniel.

Luis Moncada's life took a dramatic turn before he embarked on a successful acting career, marked by a tumultuous and regrettable period of involvement with a gang, which ultimately led to a prison sentence for a conviction related to vehicle theft, a grave mistake that would later serve as a cautionary tale of the importance of turning one's life around and seizing opportunities for redemption.
