Claudio Colica (born 5 December 1988) is an Italian actor, comedian and screenwriter.

Career

Claudio Colica began his career together with his brother Fabrizio, creating the comedy duo Le Coliche ("The colics") and publishing short videos on social media about various everyday topics, pop culture and life in Rome. Their skits went viral and started to gain recognition beyond Rome. In 2016, he was part of the cast of the TV series Vegan Chronicles, and the following year, he appeared in the short film Grosso guaio a Roma Sud.

In 2018, he took part with his brother Fabrizio at the Rai 2 television show Pechino Express, but had to withdraw due to an injury; his brother continued the race with another partner, ultimately finishing in second place. In 2021, the duo published their first autobiographical book, Come il mal di pancia, with illustrations by comic artist Giacomo Bevilacqua.

In 2022, he landed his first leading role, alongside Christian De Sica, Angela Finocchiaro, and Dharma Mangia Woods, in the Netflix comedy The Price of Family, where he played Emilio Delle Fave. Subsequently, he had supporting roles in the films Io e mio fratello by Luca Lucini and Mascarpone: The Rainbow Cake by Alessandro Guida.

In 2024, he reprises the role of Emilio in The Price of Nonna's Inheritance, the sequel to The Price of Family.

Personal life

Colica has revealed that he suffers from Tourette syndrome. He has been married to actress Neva Leoni since 2022.
