Biography

[edit]

A former law professor with a degree in Jurisprudence and a theatre actor and director since the mid-'70s, Caprio has often played the part of a priest or professor in his film and television roles.[2] He is typically known for dubbing voices of celebrities and cartoon characters, providing the official Italian dub voice for actors like Martin Short and Mark Williams and characters such as Arthur Weasley in Harry Potter, Peter Griffin in Family Guy, and C-3PO in the Star Wars franchise since 1999. Caprio is also the Italian voice of Kermit the Frog, which he has dubbed in every Muppets movie to date,[3] and the Looney Tunes character Marvin the Martian.

In Italian animation, Caprio voiced the title character and Glycerin in the second season of the TV series Alberto the Wolf (Lupo Alberto), Geppetto in two animated films based on Carlo Collodi's book, Pinocchio, and others.

In 2012, he also took over as the Italian voice of Grandpa Simpson in The Simpsons, as well as Professor Farnsworth in Futurama, replacing Mario Milita and Sergio Graziani respectively.
