Only the look remained unchanged.
Despite tense relations with the West, foreign projects still appeared on Soviet screens. One of them was the detective series “Octopus” in which the leading role went to Michele Placido. In his performance, Commissioner Cattani fell in love with all the audience, and as a result, the actor became a world star.
However, he soon decided that he should do his own projects, and forced the creators to get rid of the popular character. After that, the Italian starred in many more successful films and often appeared on the covers of glossy magazines. For 40 years, the handsome man remained the personification of male attractiveness and charisma.
However, in recent years, fans of the star have noticed that he has aged a lot. Placido was haggard, his hair was completely gray, and deep wrinkles appeared on his face. Only the look of the actor remained the same serious and piercing.
