Robinhood Ferdinand Cariño Padilla (Tagalog pronunciation: [kaˈɾiɲo paˈdilja]; born November 23, 1969)[2] is a Filipino actor, film director, and politician. He is known as the "Bad Boy" of Philippine cinema for portraying anti-hero gangster roles in films such as Anak ni Baby Ama (1990), Grease Gun Gang (1992), Bad Boy (1990), and Bad Boy 2 (1992).[3] He has also been dubbed the "Prince of Action" in Philippine cinema.[4]

Padilla was elected a Senator of the Philippines after winning a seat in the 2022 Senate Elections. He assumed office in the Senate on June 30, 2022, becoming the first Muslim senator of the Philippines since Santanina Rasul, who served in the Senate until 1995.[5][6]

He assumed the presidency of the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino party on July 24, 2024.[7]
