Christopher Alexander Luis Casillas von Uckermann was born on October 21, 1986 in Mexico City. His father is Mexican, his mother is Swedish and his maternal grandparents are German. He started his acting career when he was just 2 years old in TV commercials.

In 1999 he was cast in El diario de Daniela. He then starred in Amigos X Siempre in 2000, alongside Spanish Mexican singer/actress Belinda Peregrín. In 2001 he acted in and wrote the theme song for the series Aventuras En El Tiempo.

Following the success of Rebelde, in 2007, Televisa released RBD: La Familia, which starred the members of RBD. The sitcom was based on the fictional lives of the members of RBD.
