Back to the neighborhood: Samuel Sunderland, actor who gave life to 'Pedrito', will move to the United States to study

He said goodbye to Peru. Samuel Sunderland became one of the most beloved young actors on the small screen for playing 'Pedrito' in the América Televisión series Back to the Neighborhood. Through his social networks, the 18-year-old announced that he will move to another country.

As you remember, just a few months ago, the artist celebrated his coming of age with his closest friends, although at that time he had not communicated what his future plans were, so his last publication surprised many.

Samuel Sunderland entered the soap opera when he was still a child, so many saw him grow up on screens. He also became friends with great actors and young acting promises when he participated in the series.

On his Instagram account, the popular 'Pedrito' announced that he had a farewell party and posted some photos of the entertainment he received. At another time he said that he will soon fly to Los Angeles, California, to start studying.

“A great way to say goodbye to a great stage in my life. We took these photos at my farewell party, because I'm moving. Many, if not all, do not know it until now, but this week I am moving to live and study in Los Angeles,” he posted.

At another time Samuel Sunderland thanked all the people who were pursuing his acting career in Peru, but now he wants to venture into a new stage, which would be linked to music.

“Thank you all for joining me on this great journey, now it's my turn to venture out and try on the other hand. I will do my best to maintain contact on the networks, and I hope they won't forget me. Whatever happens, Peru will always be my home. Thanks Totals,” said the actor.

The messages of support from his followers did not take long and they congratulated him immediately, and the actors he worked with also wished him good luck in this new phase of his life.

DIRECTED SHORT FILM

Samuel Sunderland seeks to break a path in the world of film direction, so he recorded “Stab”, a short film written and directed by himself, following his directorial debut in the last episode of the hit web series “Trapped”.

“I am nervous and very excited about this project. Although it's not my first short, it's the first time I'm going to direct one written by me and with more actors involved. I already know the production team for the series' Trapados' which went super well for us, so I know that this one will do the same too and I hope it will be the start of something even bigger,” the actor commented in a press release.
