Biografia
Ciro Priello, a Neapolitan born in 1986, initially dreamed of becoming a ballerina as a child. He trained in dance for many years before studying singing and acting, but ultimately his passion for video took precedence. Alongside his longtime friend Francesco Ebbasta, director of The Jackal, he began exploring new visual styles. Dance influenced his development of a distinct, physical comedy style, often bordering on slapstick. As the face of The Jackal, he starred in their first film, "AFMV - Addio fottuti musi verdi." Over the years, he has appeared in several films, including "Ci devo pensare" (2015), "Gatta Cenerentola" (2017), "La Tristezza ha il sonno leggero" (2021), and is set to appear in Giampaolo Morelli's upcoming film "Falla girare," releasing in 2022. A talented impersonator, he featured on Rai 1's "Tale e Quale Show" and portrayed Alessandro Borghese in a special episode of The Jackal's "4 Ristoranti." In 2020, he made his Prime Video debut in the first season of the cult show "LOL," which he won. That same year, alongside friend and colleague Fabio Balsamo, he appeared on Massimo Ranieri's Rai3 show "Qui e Adesso." In July 2021, he starred with The Jackal in "Europei a Casa The Jackal" on Raiplay. He also lent his voice to "Biscotti's - Storie dell'Internet," The Jackal's second podcast in collaboration with Spotify. During the 2022 Festival di Sanremo, he hosted the "Prima Festival" show on Rai 1. In 2022, he will appear on the big screen again in "Falla girare" by Giampaolo Morelli. His favorite book is "Choke" by Chuck Palahniuk, and his greatest love is his daughter.
