Italian voice actor and dubber died on December 22, 2023. He was 82. Born in Imperia, Liguria, Italy he was the son of Mario Morosi and grandson of Ugo Morosi, the two orphans rescued in 1908 from the rubble of the earthquake in Messina by the poet Giulio Gianelli, who wrote specifically for the Story of Pepin Born Old and Died as a Child: the latter was a probable source of inspiration for Francis Scott Fitzgerald and his novella The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, from which the homonymous was also based film starring Brad Pitt.

He dubbed actors such as Gérard Depardieu, Morgan Freeman, Martin Sheen and Dennis Hopper. As a stage actor he is remembered for playing the role of Toto in the musical “Add a Place at the Table” in 1974 and in the 1977 revival, alongside Johnny Dorelli, Paolo Panelli and Bice Valori.
