Terence Hill



         


March 23, 1939) is an Italian-born German actor and film producer.

After being discovered by Italian filmmakers, he appeared in his first major film, Luchino Visconti's The Leopard. He then appeared in a series of adventure and western films in Germany. In 1967, he returned to Italy to act in God Forgives, I don't. He changed his name to Terence Hill in the same year, and he took it from the Roman scholar Terence and his wife's surname, Lori Hill.

In the following years, he starred in many action and western films together with his long time partner Bud Spencer. The pair were notable for their funny, intelligent films and were very successful in Italy. Possibly their most famous film is the 1971 western Lo chiamavano Trinità (They Call Me Trinity) and the 1972 sequel Continuavano a chiamarlo Trinità (Trinity is Still My Name).
