His mother, Amelie Menéndez, was an English teacher and his father, René García, was an attorney in Cuba.[6] García has two older siblings, a sister named Tessi and a brother named René.[7] When he was five years old, his family moved to Miami, Florida after the failed 1961 Bay of Pigs Invasion. Over a period of several years, they built up a million-dollar perfume/fragrance company. García was raised as a Catholic[8][9] and attended Miami Beach Senior High School, where he played on the basketball team. During his senior year of high school, he became ill with mononucleosis,[10] which convinced him to pursue a career in acting. He began his acting career that year by taking a drama class with Jay W. Jensen. He graduated from Florida International University.[3]

For his performance, García earned an Academy Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor, as well as a Golden Globe Award nomination.[15]

He portrayed the arrogant Las Vegas casino owner Terry Benedict in Steven Soderbergh's Ocean's Eleven (2001), a remake of the 1960 Rat Pack caper movie starring George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, and Julia Roberts.

They secured financing for the film in 2012, and García himself, Anthony Hopkins, and Annette Bening were announced as stars. Filming was originally to have begun in January 2013,[17][18] but due to delays, Hopkins left the project in 2014 and was replaced by Jon Voight.[19][20]

Here We Go Again alongside Cher, Amanda Seyfried, Lily James, Colin Firth, Stellan Skarsgård, and Pierce Brosnan.[21] When asked about singing with Cher, García told NBC's Today show, "It was sublime. One thing is to act with Cher who is a great actress and then to be asked to sing with her".[22]

Personal life
[edit]Garcia met his now wife, Marivi Lorido, when they were both students at Florida International University during the mid-70's when they first saw each other in a Miami nightclub. The couple dated for seven years before tying the knot on September 24, 1982.[25] The family divides their time between Toluca Lake, Los Angeles and Key Biscayne, Florida.[26][27]
The couple shares four children: Dominik García-Lorido, Daniella, Alessandra, and Andrés. Dominik was born on August 16, 1983, in Miami, Florida. She is married to Michael Doneger. Daniella was born on January 3, 1988, in Los Angeles, California. She is married to actor, Stephen Borrello and the couple has a daughter named Violette Rose.

Andres has gone on to become an established DJ across Los Angeles and Miami.[28]
García has often expressed his distaste for the communist regime that has ruled Cuba since the revolution.[29][30][31] Following Fidel Castro's death in November 2016, García criticized his legacy, stating: "It is necessary for me to express the deep sorrow that I feel for all the Cuban people...that have suffered the atrocities and repression caused by Fidel Castro and his totalitarian regime."[29]
In 2018, García attended a fundraiser event for Friends of the Israel Defense Forces, which raised $60 million.[32] Following the October 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel in 2023 that killed 1,200, García signed an open letter by Creative Community for Peace condemning the killings and calling the world to "stand with Israel as it defends itself against a terrorist regime in Gaza that seeks Israel’s destruction."[33]
