Robinhood Ferdinand Cariño Padilla ([kaˈɾiɲopaˈdilja]; born November 23, 1969),[2] also known by his Muslim nameAbdul Aziz,[3][4] is a Filipino actor and politician serving assenator of the Philippines. He is known as the "Bad Boy" ofPhilippine cinema for portrayinganti-hero gangster roles in films such asAnak ni Baby Ama (1990),Grease Gun Gang (1992),Bad Boy (1990), andBad Boy II (1992).[5] He has also been dubbed the "Prince of Action" in Philippine cinema.[6]
Padilla was convicted in April 1994 for illegal ownership of three firearms related to a driving incident in 1992; he was granted a conditional pardon by PresidentFidel V. Ramos after serving four years in prison and was released in April 1998. He would later be granted an absolute pardon by PresidentRodrigo Duterte in 2016.

He assumed office in the Senate on June 30, 2022, becoming the firstMuslim senator of the Philippines sinceSantanina Rasul, who served in the Senate until 1995.[7][8]
A supporter of former presidentRodrigo Duterte,[9] he assumed the presidency of thePartido Demokratiko Pilipino party on July 24, 2024.[10]
Robinhood Cariño Padilla was born on November 23, 1969, inDaet, Camarines Norte toCasimero "Roy" Padilla Sr. (1926–1988) and actress Lolita Eva Cariño.[11] He has 47 siblings,[12] among whom are half-brothers Roberto (1947–2014), Roy Jr. (1948–),[13] Ronaldo (1962–1988),[14] Roger,[15]Ricarte (1965–) and Rodolfo ("Gino"; 1974/1975–2002),[16][17][18] brothers Randolf (d. 1980s),[19] Royette (1962–2021),[20] andRommel (1965–), and sisters Rebecca and Carmela;[12][21] one of his siblings,BB Gandanghari (formerly Rustom; 1967–), istransgender.[22] In spite of media reports in the 2010s that Padilla is half-Ibaloi from his mother's side, Ibaloi representatives of the prominent Cariño clan ofBenguet denied this claim, though they accepted Padilla as an "honorary cousin" out of goodwill and hospitality.[23]
Padilla's father was an actor, labor leader and politician who served as assemblyman from 1984 to 1986 and was appointed governor ofCamarines Norte from 1986 to 1988;[24] he was assassinated during his gubernatorial election campaign on January 17, 1988, with Robin's half-brother Roy Jr. running in his stead.[25] Robin's two other siblings, Randy and mayor-elect Ronaldo ofJose Panganiban, Camarines Norte died before he was 18 years old.[14][19]
Padilla took his elementary education atSiena College of Quezon City and attended high school atSaint Louis University Boys' High School.[26] He discontinued his studies when he was 17 to pursue his acting career.
He finished his bachelor's degree in criminology atPhilippine College of Criminology.[26][27]
Padilla played his first major role in the 1985 comedy filmPublic Enemy No. 2: Maraming Number Two starringEddie Garcia andNida Blanca. In 1991, Padilla played the lead roles in the filmsMaging Sino Ka Man andAng Utol Kong Hoodlum.[28] Padilla figured in a filming accident when an explosion scene forAng Utol Kong Hoodlum burned the actor, leaving scars around his abdomen and arms.[29]
Padilla wrote and starred in the 1996 filmAnak, Pagsubok Lamang ng Diyos which was shot almost entirely inside theNew Bilibid Prison, where Padilla was incarcerated.[30][31] After his release, Padilla starred in the 1998 filmTulak ng Bibig, Kabig ng Dibdib and was again injured while filming after his stunt car flipped and landed on its roof.[28]
In 1999, Padilla crossed over to television programs through theABS-CBN comedy showPwedeng Pwede. In 2002, he reprised his role as Anghel in the filmHari ng Selda: Anak ni Baby Ama 2, a sequel to the 1990 film. The following year, he top-billed his first primetime action-drama series,Basta't Kasama Kita. In 2005, he did two films: the horror thrillerKulimlim and the comedyLa Visa Loca. He won the award for Best Actor in the 2006Gawad Urian Awards.
Padilla's association with ABS-CBN concluded in 2006. He subsequently transitioned toGMA Network, taking on a prominent role in the 2007 TV seriesAsian Treasures along withAngel Locsin. Additionally, Padilla inked a two-film deal withGMA Films, featuring inTill I Met You and the 2009 horror-suspense filmSundo in collaboration withViva Films. Subsequently, Padilla chose not to renew his exclusive contract, allowing him the flexibility to work on films for various production outfits, includingStar Cinema Productions, FLT Films, Millennium Cinema, and GMA Films. During the same period, he portrayed the titular characters in the television seriesJoaquin Bordado andTotoy Bato, both of which are based on comic book characters created byCarlo J. Caparas.
In 2010, Padilla returned toABS-CBN. His projects with the network included the 2011 sitcomToda Max. In 2011, Padilla directed his first TV commercial under his own production company, RCP Productions.[32]
In 2013, Padilla once again returned to GMA Network, where he featured in a cameo role inAdarna alongside his daughterKylie Padilla. He also played the lead role in the 2013 action thriller10,000 Hours under Viva Films, winning the Best Actor award in the39th Metro Manila Film Festival and Actor of the Year in the2014 Box Office Entertainment Awards.[33]
On December 1, 2015, he again returned to ABS-CBN and was one of the judges for thefifth season of talent competition showPilipinas Got Talent. He was also one of the judges in thesucceeding season in 2018. His stint as a PGT judge hadmultiple controversies.
Padilla has been an anti-malaria advocate since 2004. He became the spokesperson for theDepartment of Health's "Movement Against Malaria" campaign, appearing in infomercials to promote the use ofmosquito nets.[34][35]
In 2007, Padilla established the Liwanag ng Kapayapaan Foundation, a pre-school for underprivileged Muslim children inQuezon City.[36] Padilla temporarily closed the school after it failed to acquire the necessary government permits to continue operations.[37] In September 2010, the school re-opened.[38]
Padilla has also promotedMuay Thai in the Philippines, and donated₱2,500,000 to theMuay Association of the Philippines where he also served as chairman.[39][40][41]
Padilla is a supporter of former PresidentRodrigo Duterte'santi-drug war,[42] hailing the campaign as "most successful" and saying thatextrajudicial killings are a legitimate part of the government's anti-crime strategy.[43][44]
Padilla joined the military and became a reserve officer in theArmed Forces of the Philippines with the rank of captain.[45] He held the rank of reserve Lieutenant Colonel as of March 2024.[46] On July 30, 2020, he was elected by the Army's Multi-Sectoral Advisory Board as its new Strategic Communication Committee chairperson.[47] In December 2021, Padilla and other reservists running in the 2022 elections were relieved of their posts "to ensure the organization's non-partisanship" though the Army clarified this did not relieve them of being in the reserve force of the army.[48]
Padilla attempted to enter politics in 1995 when he ran for Vice Governor ofNueva Ecija as anIndependent candidate from prison. His arrival at theCommission on Elections (COMELEC) with armed bodyguards to file his certificate of candidacy (COC) went against the Omnibus Election Code, although the COMELEC chairperson decided not to file charges against Padilla in the absence of a "complainant".[49] He was later endorsed by theLakas–NUCD–UMDP and became the running-mate of its nominee forgovernor, Virginia Perez–Custodio. However, they both lost their bids. Padilla garnered 209,501 votes against 285,812 votes of the incumbent Vice Governor Oscar Tinio, who was running underNPC–BALANE.[1]
After he lost the election, Padilla evaded rearrest with the assistance of two of his bodyguards by shuttling betweenMetro Manila andCamarines Norte, but he eventually surrendered to police authorities by August 1995.[50]
On October 8, 2021, Padilla filed his COC forsenator underPDP–Laban for the2022 election.[51] His platforms include pushing for anti-criminality measures, a crackdown on illegal drugs, the establishment of federalism and legislating community policing.[52] Padilla stated that he is also against giving tax incentives for foreign investors and seeks to increase the minimum income of Filipino families to encourageOverseas Filipino Workers to go back home. He also said he would be hiring lawyers to help him draft laws if he win.[53]
Padilla won a seat in the Senate, topping the vote count[7] and breaking the record for most votes cast during a senate election in the history of the Philippines.[54] He believes it was his platform onfederalism and not solely his popularity as an actor that led to his win.[55] SenatorWin Gatchalian, who is a reelectionist and in theUniTeam alliance coalition like Padilla, has vouched for Padilla as a representative for Muslims in the Senate.[56] Following his win, Padilla announced that he would hire lawyerSalvador Panelo to help him fulfill his role as senator.[57] He also hired his longtime counsel Rudolf Philip Jurado as his chief of staff,Bangsamoro-based human rights lawyerAlgamar Latiph as his chief legislative officer, and former actressNadia Montenegro as his political officer.[58][59][60]

In the19th Congress, he voted to electMigz Zubiri as Senate President, thus becoming part of the majority bloc. He, however, abstained in the election ofJoel Villanueva as Senate Majority Leader.[61] Padilla is the current Chairman of the Senate Committee on Constitutional Amendments and Revision of Codes and the Senate Committee on Cultural Communities and Muslim Affairs.
Padilla filed in the first week of July his first ten bills, including the Equal Use of Languages Act; Suspension of Excise Tax on certain fuel products; Medical Cannabis Compassionate Access Act; Amending the Rice Tariffication Law; Magna Carta of Barangay Health Workers; Equality and Non-discrimination Act; Civil Service Eligibility for casual, contractual govt employees who rendered at least 5 years of service; Regionalization of Bilibid Prisons; Mandatory Reserve Officers' Training Corps Act; and Divorce Act of the Philippines.[62]

In the second week of July, Padilla filed a second batch of priority bills and resolutions that touched on federalism, the creation of the Congress-Parliamentary Bangsamoro Forum, a resolution on the appointment of the Marawi Compensation Board, a resolution on joint exploration of the West Philippine Sea, the Local Development Fund Act, a Nursing Home for Senior Citizens Act, Civil Unions Act, the Eddie Garcia Act, inclusion of Philippine History in high school curriculum, and Unsung Heroes Day.[64]
Padilla, who chairs the Senate committee on Cultural Communities and Muslim Affairs, pushed for an investigation into why Aetas in Central Luzon have not been able to get some₱19 million due them from an agreement signed in 2007.[65]
Padilla took his oath as president of the Partido Demokratiko Pilipino (PDP) party, according to a press release from his office dated July 24, 2024.[10]
Padilla has filed a bill to legalizemedicalcannabis in the Philippines and has proposedIsrael's policy as its model.[66][67][68] Padilla, however, clarified that he still considers cannabis or marijuana as a dangerous drug. The Medical Cannabis Party however argued that the penalties proposed in the bill makes cannabis more inaccessible and exacerbate the stigma against cannabis use.[69]
Padilla started holding hearings on amendments to the 1987 Constitution, in his capacity as chairman of the Senate Committee on Constitutional Amendments and Revision of Codes. He has indicated he will hold hearings in the provinces, to make sure all Filipinos understand the issue and have a say on the matter.[70] He is focusing on changing the Charter's economic provisions.[71]
Padilla sought an inter-agency effort in fighting fake news, and sought a probe into the matter. This was contained in his Senate Resolution 191, which he filed in September. He is poised to lead the probe as chairman of the Senate Committee on Public Information and Mass Media.[72]
He also called on other institutions like the news industry and educational institutions to do their part against fake news.
The re-imposition of mandatoryReserve Officers' Training Corps (ROTC) training has been one of Padilla's advocacy when he ran for Senator. Due to the ROTC bill still pending on Congress, Padilla in March 2024 launched his own Basic Citizen Military Training which will have volunteers which will serve the needs of the Senate.[73]
Padilla filed Senate Bill 1273 seeking more cemeteries for Muslims and indigenous people (IPs) to ensure that proper burial in accordance with their customs and tradition will be observed.[74]
Padilla filed Senate Bill 450, the proposed "Eddie Garcia Law," which outlined safety measures and other benefits for workers in the Philippine entertainment industry to protect the welfare of actors and workers in the industry.[75]
Padilla filed Senate Bill 449 seeking to give same-sex couples the same rights enjoyed by married straight couples under the law, saying it is 'high time" for the Philippines to do so. The bill includes provisions upholding the rights of such couples to a civil union. "Providing equal rights and privileges for same-sex couples will in no way diminish or trample on the rights granted to married couples," Padilla said.[76]
The bill has the support of celebrity coupleIce Seguerra andLiza Dino.[77] The Marawi Grand Imam, however withdrew his support for Padilla over the bill which he views as immoral and incompatible with Islam.[78]
Padilla filed Senate Bill 232, seeking to provide additional compensation and benefits to barangay health workers. The bill, dubbed An Act Providing for the Magna Carta of Barangay Health Workers, include 20% discount on items under the Expanded Senior Citizens Act of 2010, transportation allowance of at least ₱1,000 per month, and a one-time retirement cash incentive of ₱100,000 for accredited BHWs who have served for at least 15 years.[79]
Padilla filed Senate Bill 447 assuring funding for priority development projects of local government units. Padilla said this measure aims to provide an equitable distribution of wealth to LGUs to foster development with the end goal of bridging the gap between the revenue expenditure mandates of the LGC and the General Appropriations Act.[80]
The bill is similar to the Budget Reform Advocacy for Village Empowerment (BRAVE) bill of former Senator Panfilo Lacson. Padilla said he shares Lacson's drive to promote the principle of devolution, as well as for budget reform.[80]
Padilla spoke out againstsexual harassment victimizing Filipinos, including overseas Filipino workers and students.
The actor-turned-legislator pushed for heavier penalties against ambassadors and diplomatic officials involved in sexual harassment cases against Filipinos abroad, afterDepartment of Migrant Workers secretarySusan Ople cited one such case in Brunei in 2012.[81]
Meanwhile, Padilla called on parents and students to courageously report sexual harassment in schools, saying this will haunt the students for life.[82]
On May 15, 2021, Padilla went to the disputedThitu Island (Pagasa Island) to visit the Filipino settlement and military outpost. In a statement, he praised the soldiers who keep enforcing the country's sovereignty claims in theSouth China Sea during a courtesy call from members of the Joint Task Unit in Pag-asa Island.[83]
On September 5, 2022, Padilla delivered a privilege speech stressing anew the need for joint exploration between the Philippines and China in thecontestedSouth China Sea. He said going back to the negotiating table is a must for the country's interest.[84]
In 2023, Padilla would raise skepticism if the United States would fulfill its obligations with its treaty ally Philippines in case that conflict escalates in the South China Sea. He has insisted that the Philippine military can manage on its own.[85]
In January 2026, Padilla along withRodante Marcoleta, did not sign a Senate resolution against China's attack on certain Filipino government officials criticizing China's assertive claims in the South China Sea dispute.[86] Despite joining on expressing displeasure on China's action, Padilla opposedJay Tarriela's usage of caricatures ofGeneral Secretary of the Chinese Communist PartyXi Jinping in a lecture related to the South China Sea dispute.[87]

Padilla believes that theSenate hearing on the alleged abuses by theKingdom of Jesus Christ and its leader and founderApollo Quiboloy is unnecessary.[88] He disputes the hearings are conducted in aid of legislation and insists that the allegations raised in the Senate could only be dealt in the country's legal system.[89] He attended at least one meeting where he vouched for Quiboloy's character and urged the victims who testified anonymously to not conceal their identities.[90]
Padilla believes that the church leader is both a "hero" who fought against theCommunist armed conflict led by theNew People's Army (NPA) while also tagging him as a victim of the rebel group.[89]
Padilla however explicitly denied "defending" Quiboloy insisting that he is only upholding "democracy" and is moving to ensure that due process is upheld in dealing with allegations hurled against the pastor and his church.[91]
He along with his colleaguesImee Marcos,Cynthia Villar andBong Go made a failed bid to block thecontempt order imposed on Quiboloy by the Senate panel led byRisa Hontiveros.[88]
On August 15, 2024, Padilla askedLorna Pantajo-Kapunan, a human rights lawyer, what husbands should do if they are "in the mood" and their wives are not.[92] Some of his remarks, such as husbands having 'sexual rights' over their wives, earned widespread backlash.[93][94] Following this, Padilla apologized, describing his remarks as "hypothetical".[95]
Robin Padilla has opposed the removal of vice presidentSara Duterte in response toher impeachment. Even before the impeachment in February 2025, Padilla has committed to "definitely vote no" for Duterte's removal from office a month prior.[96] He also filed a resolution that sought to terminate the impeachment proceedings on June 9, 2025.[97] He has signalled his loyalty to the Duterte family stating that should he be "burned", he will "smell likeRodrigo Roa Duterte".[98]
His siblingsBB,Rommel, and Royette, are actors. His half-brother Casimero succeeded in their father's political endeavors, serving as a union leader, a congressman, and a three-term governor ofCamarines Norte.[99]
He is also the uncle of actorsBela Padilla,Daniel Padilla, andMark Anthony Fernandez. Robin is also the great-uncle ofGrae Fernandez, via his father.

On July 14, 1993, Padilla was at a house in San Lorenzo Village,Makati with his then live-in partner Liezl Sicangco, when the latter was injured by gunshot, which he said had occurred while he was sleeping;[104] Sicangco's affidavit to the Makati police stated that she was cleaning a cabinet in their room when she accidentally touched a pistol and shot her own right hand, while Padilla's brotherRommel testified that the house was rented under his name and that Robin was out of the country when firearms were seized from the house by police authorities on July 23, 1993.[105][106]
In April 1994, Padilla was twice convicted by two courts: one by theAngeles City Municipal Trial Court (MTC) for driving with reckless imprudence that caused injury, being sentenced to four months in jail,[107] and the other by thePampanga Regional Trial Court (RTC) Branch 61 for illegal possession of three firearms under Presidential Decree 1866, being sentenced to a maximum jail term of 21 years.[102][108] In April 1998, he was granted a conditional pardon byPresidentFidel V. Ramos.[109][110]
Padilla converted toIslam after meeting Muslim elders during his detainment.[111] He adopted the nameAbdul Aziz, and married Sicangco in aMuslim ceremony in early July 1996 while he was still serving his prison sentence.[112][113] Upon being pardoned by President Ramos, he expressed his intention to make apilgrimage toMecca soon after his release.[109] He has four children with Sicangco, including actresses Queenie (who left showbiz) andKylie Padilla.[114]
In November 2009, Padilla announced that he and Sicangco had divorced in 2007.[115] On August 19, 2010, Padilla andMariel Rodriguez were married at theTaj Mahal in India.[116] Padilla and Rodriguez had met during his stint as a host ofWowowee.[117] Rodriguez gave birth to their first daughter in November 2016 inDelaware,[118] and a second daughter in November 2019.[119] Despite their marriage, Rodriguez remained a Roman Catholic.[120][121] In 2017, Padilla became a grandfather when his daughters Queenie and Kylie gave birth.[122][123]
In 2014, Padilla campaigned for presidential candidate Rodrigo Duterte and in May 2016 filed a libel case against a Twitter user for calling him an "ex-convict".[124] In November 2016, Padilla was granted an absolute pardon from PresidentRodrigo Duterte to endow him fullcivil and political rights.[125]
