Biography


Born in Rome on April 7, 1932, he began his career in theatre, film, and television in the 1950s. He got his first film role in the historical melodrama Senso, directed by Luchino Visconti, who also hired him to dub Alain Delon's Italian voice as Tancredi Falconeri in The Leopard and with whom he also worked on stage. Through the years, Sabatini acted in multiple films and TV shows directed by Anton Giulio Majano, Vittorio Sindoni and Leandro Castellani. He was also cast in a few international productions, most notably John Moore's 2006 film The Omen (a remake of Richard Donner's film of the same name) where Sabatini portrayed Cardinal Fabretti.
As a voice actor, Sabatini mainly dubbed voices for Italian-dubbed editions of foreign films. In Sabatini’s character dubbing roles, he famously dubbed over the voice of Magneto (portrayed by Ian McKellen) in the X-Men film franchise as well as Morgan Freeman’s role as "Red" in the 1994 film The Shawshank Redemption, while on television he dubbed Josiah Bartlet (portrayed by Martin Sheen) in The West Wing and Philip Banks (portrayed by James Avery) in The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. The many actors he dubbed included Clint Eastwood, Donald Sutherland, Harvey Keitel, Bruce Lee, and Kris Kristofferson; he also voiced Chilkoot in the Italian dub of the animated Disney film Brother Bear 2.
