Buenos Aires, Feb 9 (NA) – Broadcaster Mariano Chiesa has become the first Argentine to be the voice of the Super Bowl for the Spanish-language broadcast in the United States. The call came from Telemundo, the network that holds the Spanish-language rights to the event, and they chose him after having worked with him throughout the NFL season, according to the Argentine News Agency. Based in Miami for seven years, Chiesa has developed an international profile supported by a neutral accent and great vocal versatility that allows him to adapt to different formats. The choice was driven by Julio Sonino, vice president of programming and sports production for Telemundo Deportes, who would also have begun to include him in launches related to NBA broadcasts for the 2026 season. Although he resides in the United States, Chiesa maintains an active participation in theatrical productions in Buenos Aires, as he is part of the show 'Rocky,' where he appears every night on the screens of the Lola Membrives Theater as the narrator of the final fight between Rocky Balboa and Apollo Creed, one of the most celebrated moments of the play. He also participates in 'Casi Normales Inmersivo,' where he plays Dr. Madden in large-format projections and maintains a special connection with the musical there, as he was part of the original cast and is the only one from that production who participates in the current immersive version. With his participation in the Super Bowl final, Chiesa adds a new milestone to his career and positions Argentine announcing on the international stage.
