After that, Otxoa appeared in several short films, including ‘‘Pase privado’’ in 2014, and a year later he landed the starring role in the short movie ‘‘Artifitial’’, and began working on ‘‘Velvet’’, an award-winning television series, which allowed him to collaborate with actors such as Paula Echevarría and Miguel Ángel Silvestre, further adding to his net worth.

More recently, in 2016 he played one of the most prominent roles in ‘‘Reevolution’’, a critically acclaimed action drama film, starring side by side with Leandro Rivera and Fele Martínez, and in the same year starred in ‘‘No es Fácil Ser… Gorka Otxoa’’, a short comedy film entirely focused on him. Besides that, he began portraying Horacio in ‘‘Allí Abajo’’, and played Alex in ‘‘Fe de etarras’’, which earned four nominations such as for the Best Film: Comedy, and Best Screenplay.

Speaking about Gorka’s future projects, he will be starring in ‘‘El Ascensor’’. Overall, Otxoa has had over 50 acting gigs.
