In 1984, Trucco was involved in another Puerto Rican film involving a Puerto Rican boy band; this time, named "Conexion Caribe" ("Caribbean Connection"), which was also directed by his father and which starred Menudo's top musical rivals of the era, Los Chicos (which, at the time, included future international singing star Chayanne).
In the mid-80s, Trucco acted in some telenovelas in Puerto Rico; in one of them, he met his future sister in law, actress Giselle Blondet.
Trucco shared hosting responsibilities with Colombian Carlos Cabrera and with Ecuatorian-Puerto Rican Hugo Savinovich on that show.
