Becerril was born in San Luis Potosí and grew up in Cuernavaca, Morelos, where he realized his passion for being on stage as part of a choir.
He entered the then School of Fine Arts Theatre, where he formally began his studies.
At the age of 25 he applied for and obtained a scholarship from the government of France to study acting there.
Although his career in Europe was successful, he stayed in Mexico, because of nostalgia of returning to his homeland and because he did different castings and obtained the characters he wanted.
One of the first to share their condolences was Joaquín Cosío besides Horacio Villalobos, José María Yazpik, Ignacio Riva Palacio , Darío Ripolll and Eduardo España.
