EDOARDO LEO
Edoardo Leo is an Italian actor, screenwriter and director born on 21 April 1972 in Rome.
After graduating from scientific high school with minimum grades, in 1999 he obtained, this time with top grades, a degree in Letters from La Sapienza University of Rome.
He then fails some exams at the academy and at the experimental center, so he writes a fake CV in which he claims to have attended "La Scaletta", an acting school in Rome, which he never actually attended.
Edoardo Leo is known to the general public for roles in dramas such as "A doctor in the family", "I married a footballer" and "I Cesaroni".
In 2009, the actor decided to move behind the cameras, and thus began his career as a director and screenwriter.
His most recent works are: “Lasciarsi un giorno a Roma” (2021) a film written, performed and directed by himself and his first documentary “Luigi Proietti known as Gigi”.
For the film "Eighteen years later" he received the nomination for the David di Donatello for Best Debut Director and the Nastro d'argento for Best Debut Director.
