New Faces: Francesco Zenga

He was still in high school when he was cast in the TV series La Storia (2024). He’s now attending the prestigious Centro Sperimentale di Cinematografia in Rome and boasts two more credits: the TV series La Preside, currently streaming on RaiPlay and Netflix, and a feature film in post-production (Un altro giorno insieme).

Tall (6 feet), curly-haired, handsome, 21-year-old Francesco hails from Nocera Inferiore (Southern Italy). “I had the opportunity to explore different roles,” Francesco says in a YouTube podcast. “I played two totally different characters in La Preside and La Storia —different time periods, different societies…”

He has proved his acting chops; where will Francesco’s good looks take him next?
