The Mexican comedian Roberto Gómez Bolaños, also known as 'Chespirito', died Friday at the age of 85, according to the chain Televisa. The creator of characters such as ‘El Chavo del 8′ and 'El Chapulín Colorado' would have died in Cancun.

Born February 21, 1929, his fame crossed borders, becoming an icon in Latin America. The nickname comes from a hispanicization of the English author Shakespeare, and the film director put it Agustín P. Delgado, who considered Roberto Gómez Bolaños a little Shakespeare.

He even directed several movies such as ‘El Chanfle’ and ‘El Zángano’
