Timeline
Ezio Greggio (born 7 April 1954) is an Italian comedian, actor, writer and film director.
In Italy he is mostly known for his long-lasting appearances in TV shows like Drive In and Striscia la notizia, while abroad he is noted for his movies and his collaboration with Mel Brooks.
Born in Cossato, a small town near Biella, Greggio began his TV career at age 18 in Telebiella, the first local private owned station in Italy thanks to the help of founder Peppo Sacchi.
His appearances in the national TV didn't gain him success, but Greggio had the chance to meet Gianfranco D'Angelo, another young comedian.
D'Angelo convinced Greggio to move to the newborn Fininvest (later Mediaset), a local TV channel founded in Milan by Silvio Berlusconi.
They were both included in the cast of the main show of the network, Drive In, a 2-hour weekly show featuring a bunch of young emerging comedians.
Greggio quickly became spotlight chaser of the whole show.
Greggio wrote and acted his first movie, Sbamm! in 1980.
He appeared in many other comic/trash films, almost always directed by Enrico Oldoini.
In 1988 he followed the creator and head writer Antonio Ricci to a long series of successful shows: after Odiens, a show loosely inspired by Drive In, Greggio in 1990 and 1993 presented Paperissima, a container for bloopers and funny homemade videos.
In these shows, Greggio created his most famous recurring gags.
Since 1988 he has been the main presenter (along with D'Angelo and later Enzo Iacchetti) of Striscia la notizia, a daily television news parody.
He starred in the program every year for some months, from the beginning up to now.
Ezio Greggio has two sons, Giacomo and Gabriele, born respectively in 1991 and 1995, following the marriage between Greggio and the Spanish model Isabel Bengochea.
In 1994, he debuted as director with The Silence of the Hams, a parody movie inspired by The Silence of the Lambs and Psycho.
The movie was shot in the United States: during this work, Greggio built a strong friendship with movie director Mel Brooks and with Dom DeLuise (both appearing in the movie).
Brooks named one of Dom DeLuise's killers in his Robin Hood: Men in Tights, "Dirty Ezio", and had Greggio in the cast of Dracula: Dead and Loving It.
In 1997, Greggio came back to the camera, directing The Good Bad Guy and in 1999 Screw Loose, with Mel Brooks as actor.
Since 2000, Greggio acted in a great number of TV productions.
Later in the early 2000s he divorced his wife.
The marriage with Isabel Bengochea had lasted about 20 years.
He later had love affairs with other younger women.
Since 2015 he also has Albanian citizenship.
Ezio Greggio published five humor books with Mondadori:
From 2018 to 2023 he had a romance with Romina Pierdomenico.
