Biography

edit

Born in Rome, he began his career at four years of age with the 1956 film Supreme Confession. He had an intensifying experience as a child actor throughout the 1950s and 1960s on cinema and television and also voiced Arthur in the Italian-Language dub of the 1963 animated Disney film The Sword in the Stone, which marked Giuliani's first dubbing contribution.[1] In that same year he performed the role of Paolo in Irvin Kershner's war film Face in the Rain.[2]

A passionate football fan and pratictioner, in the 1960s he was hired to play in the roman football youth squad, but had to leave after four months due to his obligations as a child actor.

Giuliani went on acting in films and television, also taking part in plays, variety shows, and hosting programs for the Italian television and radio industry.[3][4] A later, popular acting role of his was that of Ciro, the newsagent, in the late '80s TV series I ragazzi della 3ª C.[3]

As a voice actor, Giuliani became well known for providing the Italian voice of John Belushi in The Blues Brothers,[3] as well as Bugs Bunny (from 1996 to 2007, when the role was passed on to Davide Garbolino), Fozzie Bear in The Muppets and Buck from the Ice Age film series. Giuliani has also dubbed Mel Gibson, Dudley Moore, Billy Crystal, John Candy, Andy García, Joe Pantoliano and Warwick Davis in some of their projects.[5]

In the early 2000s, Giuliani protested that he had been insulted and threatened by AS Roma supporters due to his impersonation of footballer Francesco Totti on the TV show Convenscion,[6] where he had also imitated other public figures such as sportspeople and politicians.[4]

He has also made appearances in La Partita del cuore.

Giuliani is married to dubbing director Tiziana Lattuca. He is also the father of voice actor Daniele Giuliani and the uncle of voice actress Claudia Catani.
