Life and career

Born in Biella, Colli graduated from liceo classico, then he started acting in some amateur dramatics and starred in two lost Super 8 films.[1][2] After one year of university he decided to abandon his studies to enroll the Fersen drama school in Rome.[2]

A real life friend of Vittorio Gassman, Colli often acted alongside him, especially on stage, and he made his film debut playing a small role in the Gassman's film The Devil in Love. [1] He then appeared in a large number of movies and TV-series, even if usually in character roles.[1]
