“It is very exciting to be in this project, I feel that it is an issue that happens in our country, ‘Rental mother’ is not based on a real event, but I do believe that it is inspired by many real events that indigenous women have experienced within of our country”, highlighted Alex Olive in a pleasant talk for Debate.
For the young actor, that “The Streaming Giant” has decided to take this story, has ventured to make it and launch it globally within his platform, “for me it is incredible”, because he they are giving light and voice to these women that if they want to get a family member out of any adversity, “they allow themselves, in some way, to be exploited by this type of family, to rent their womb and be able to acquire resources to help their loved ones, but these are just events that I think a lot of people have no idea what is happening in our country and I hope this series helps to make it visible, to give them a voice for good, hopefully we can help, do our bit for this cause and start the debate”.
Alex Oliva plays “Elvin” in “Rental Mother”a person separated from his blood family due to certain circumstances in the past, however, as the series develops, he creates his own family, “a family that he chooses, finds these people and creates a family for which He gives his life, he is a very selfless person, he always puts the people he loves first, ready to help, willing to do what he has to do to protect his loved ones”.

Along with other people, They form a team so that the woman who rents her womb has justice for everything the Huizar family did“aside from the story, that’s what ended up hooking me,” the actor said.
Alejandro Oliva She doesn’t come from a family of artists, so at first her parents thought it was a bit strange that she wanted to study acting. Art began to influence his life before the social events such as catwalks and carnivals that his mother carried out., “because she filled that part of her life with art and entertained people.” Watching various movies and series growing up, she realized the power they had over him and how they influenced her decisions and personality.
“I realized this power that storytellers have, I began to get more hooked, I said: ‘I want to generate what this actor generated in me, I want to generate it for someone, if he generates it for someone, I will be happy, So, like, this idea of being able to enter people’s hearts, people’s minds and be able to influence in some positive way, was what ended up convincing me to get into acting.”
He studied acting at the CasAzul school and got a Master of Arts in Classical Acting for Professional Theaterby the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art (LAMDA). Little by little he has been forging his own path in this artistic world that he is so passionate about.

On the other hand, for Alex Oliva everything has been worth it when people approach him and tell him that thanks to his performance, they forgot about their problem or grief, and were happy for a few moments. “That is what fills me the most, that they tell me that I influenced them in a positive way, that I achieved a change in them, even if it was for three hours, that they were having a terrible time in their day, and that I achieved with my work, with passion, that they forget about it, even for a moment, that’s why I do this”.
