The American actor is especially known for his role in the series Grey's Anatomy. Dempsey will talk to Pablo Motos about his new professional challenges that go beyond the world of acting.
The actor rose to fame playing Derek Shepherd, the neurosurgeon in the series Grey's Anatomy. He was part of the main cast for 11 seasons. With this role in the acclaimed medical drama he received a nomination for the Emmy Awards and won the affection of the audience.
His long career in this series earned him the nickname 'Dr. McDreamy'. A nickname that links his role as a neurosurgeon in the series with his attractive physical appearance. He has also appeared in many movies, such as Bridget Jones's Baby, Valentine's Day, Transformers: Dark of the Moon, Enchanted, and Can't Buy Me Love.
Patrick Dempsey has not only dedicated himself to acting. His passion for racing has led him to become a pilot. Between 2004 and 2015, he participated in various racing championships, such as the World Endurance Championship and the American Le Mans Series. He also founded his own team, Dempsey Racing, which later merged with Proton Competition.
His interest in cars has led him to have a large collection of vehicles. Among them are the Jaguar E-Type Coupé, the Porsche 911 RSR, the Panoz Esperante GT, and the Ferrari F430. In an interview for GQ, he admitted that he is happier driving cars than working as an actor. "I find acting to be a painful, very challenging process. It's not as easy as driving for me," he confessed.
In fact, in one of his most recent movies, he combined both professions. He has a role in Ferrari, the film based on the life of Enzo Ferrari. Patrick Dempsey plays Piero Taruffi, an Italian racing driver who participated in 18 Formula 1 races, won one race, and scored 41 points throughout his sporting career.
Now, a month away from turning 59, he recently opened his first boutique. A TAG Heuer watch store, the Swiss brand of which he has been an international ambassador for a decade. He inaugurated it in Barcelona at the end of November and it is located in one of the best areas of the City. Specifically on Paseo de Gracia.
This luxurious opening in the center of Barcelona was attended by a large number of celebrities from the world of sports, fashion, and cinema. Among them are Ana Peleteiro, Carlos Cuevos, Eric Masip, Marta Hazas, Pepe Barroso Jr, Ana Fernández, Lucía Martiño, Maxi Iglesias, and Ana Fernández.
