Life and career

In the 1970s, Cecchetto attended the Silvio d'Amico National Academy of Dramatic Arts and began his career working with film directors like Mario Monicelli and Carlo Vanzina. However, he was best known for being a voice actor: he gave his voice to Shrek in the Shrek franchise[2] and to nearly all the Disney Pixar characters originally voiced by John Ratzenberger, including Hamm from the Toy Story film series. Starting from season 12, Cecchetto became the new Italian voice of Cleveland Brown on Family Guy, replacing Luciano Marchitiello.

He died from complications following a moped accident at the San Camillo Hospital in Rome on 23 January 2022, at the age of 70.[3]
