First PEPLUM roles


Above and below: Jeffrey Hunter in the 1950 production of JULIUS CAESAR. This was also his first acting job in a film.


Giuliano Gemma is seen for a few seconds in BEN-HUR (1959). Giuliano appeared in many PEPLUM films after this including the starring role in MY SON THE HERO (aka The Titans)

And another PEPLUM star, José Greci, also appeared in BEN-HUR. She played Mary and is seen very briefly.

Is MY SON THE HERO available with English translation?

Gemma is otherwise quite good (and very athletic) in ANGELIQUE as well.
