Jerónimo Bolaño
Do-boy and elevator assistant at Popland. Jerónimo uses this job as a chance for fame. He thinks that he can use information gathered at Popland to give his reel to a famous producer or director. Nothing could be further from the truth. When they know he works with Katherina, they avoid him. He is very talented. A histrionic comedian, he's putting together a stand up routine, but he can also sing, dance and always keep a positive attitude. He has posed as a model but when he tries to use his looks to gain prestige, he fails at that too.
He always gets into acting through a backdoor, thinking this will save him several steps. He daydreams in the elevator about becoming a breakout movie star.
Jerónimo is one of the many sons of Mr. Bolaño, and every time he calls his father, he has to explain which son he is. Bolaño Senior has already married roughly 5 different women and each has had more than 5 children, so he never knows which is which. For anyone who hears his story,these sons and daughters practically make up a tribe, Jerónimo estimates they're about 25 in total, but has lost count. It is likely that his father has asked other women to keep quiet, and even other children to do.
