Giuseppe Russo is an Italian actor with an extensive career in film, television, and voice acting. Born in Rome and raised by an Italian physician, he began his artistic journey as a classically trained pianist, recognized as a prodigy by the age of eight. He later transitioned to acting, studying with several renowned coaches, including Carlo Merlo at the Art Clesis Rome Academy, Beatrice Bracco for Stanislavsky technique, and Ivana Chubbuck in her invitation-only master class in Los Angeles.

In Italy, he became well-known for his performances in popular television series such as Lo Zio D'America, The Teacher, and Distretto Di Polizia, as well as films like Non Smettere Di Sognare. His stage work has also garnered critical acclaim, earning him the CTR's Angelo Perugini Best Actor award in 2011 for his role in the Italian production of Tango. After relocating to Los Angeles, his on-screen work expanded to include projects like the Ryan Murphy series Feud and a collaboration with Francis Ford Coppola on the live cinema short Distant Vision.

As a voice actor, Russo has built an impressive portfolio. He voiced the character Dr. Weston Fields in the anime series Eden, a role performed alongside Neil Patrick Harris, who voiced the same character in a different language version of the show. His other significant voice work includes roles in major feature films such as Pixar's Luca, Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio, and Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny. He has also contributed voices to films like Ferrari, The Equalizer 3, and The First Omen. In late 2024, he expanded into performance capture, debuting as the character Fiore in the video game Indiana Jones and the Great Circle.
