Moura was born in Salvador, a city located in Northeast Region of Brazil, but grew up in the small town of Rodelas, Bahia. His mother, Alderiva, was a housewife, and his father, José Moura, was a Sergeant in the Brazilian Air Force. At the age of 13, he moved with his family to Salvador, Bahia.

Besides his acting career, Moura is a lyricist and the vocalist of a band named Sua Mãe ("Your Mum"). In 2012, he guest performed as lead vocalist for some Legião Urbana tribute shows, featuring surviving members Marcelo Bonfá and Dado Villa-Lobos.

    • Quotes
      [on Rodrigo Santoro] He definitely opened some important doors for Brazilian actors in America. Now I'm here, and I see other amazing Brazilian actors growing their careers in USA. My favorite one is Alan Miller! Awesome young actor!! We met in Tropical Paradise (2007), when he was just 17 years old. He also sings and plays many instruments! It's fantastic.
