Actor Danny Trejo Files For Bankruptcy, Owes $2.5M In Back Taxes
Actor and entrepreneur Danny Trejo has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy and owes more than $2 million in back taxes to the IRS, according to legal documents obtained by Eyewitness News.
The ‘Machete’ actor filed back in February of this year.
Trejo’s successful businesses, including his eateries, record label, taco and donut shops are not part of the bankruptcy. He reportedly says he was mistakenly claiming deductions over the years that finally caught up with him.

Danny has appeared in films including Desperado, Heat, and the From Dusk Till Dawn film series.
With frequent collaborator and his second cousin Robert Rodriguez, he portrayed the character of Isador “Machete” Cortez, which was originally developed for the Spy Kids series and was later expanded into its own franchise of the same name.
Trejo’s film career began in 1985, when he accidentally landed in the American indie film Runaway Train, where he played the role of a boxer for a daily fee of 320 dollars.
He went on to star in a multitude of other films, including Desperado, From Dusk till Dawn, Con Air, From Dusk Till Dawn 2: Texas Blood Money, From Dusk Till Dawn 3: The Hangman’s Daughter, Reindeer Games, Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, and Grindhouse.
