Name: Bud Spencer
Date of Birth: 31 October 1929 The popular, bearded, balding, and brawny Bud Spencer has starred and co-starred in numerous spaghetti Westerns and low-budget actioners produced in both Italy and Hollywood. Born Carlo Pedersoli, Spencer was an Olympic silver medalist in swimming at the Helsinki Games of 1948 before becoming an actor and appearing in Un Eroe Dei Nostri Tempi (1955). Spencer found the greatest success teaming up with Terence Hill as a fighting duo in films such as Il Quattro de Ave Maria (1969) and Lo ... chiamavano Trinit?? (They Call Me Trinity) (1971). After 1983, Spencer's career slowed down considerably, though he did find success in the early '90s on the internationally produced police television action-drama Extralarge.Read moreBud Spencer movies (actor)User Comments |
