Jorgé Jesús Marcelo Ejército[1][2] (Tagalog pronunciation: [ʔɛˌhɛːɾ.sɪˈto]; July 10, 1939 – August 8, 1988), better known as George Estregan or George Estregan Sr., was a Filipino mestizo film actor.
Estregan made his film debut in 1963 with Jose Nazareno, ang Taxi Driver.[3] He was often cast as a villain and was infamously known as the "Penetration King" of erotic Philippine cinema.[3]
Estregan won critical acclaim for many of his performances. In 1972, he was named FAMAS Best Actor for Sukdulan, and would win two other FAMAS Awards for Best Supporting actor for Kid Kaliwete (1978) and Lumakad Kang Hubad sa Mundong Ibabaw (1980). He was nominated for the FAMAS Award three other times, as Best Actor for Lumapit, Lumayo ang Umaga (1975) and Lalake Ako (1982), and for Best Supporting Actor in Magkayakap sa Magdamag (1986). He also received a nomination from the Gawad Urian as Best Actor for Hostage: Hanapin si Batuigas (1977).
