* ClassicallyTrainedExtra: Nero apprenticed at the acclaimed [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piccolo_Teatro_(Milan) Piccolo Teatro]] in Milan and performed Shakespeare and other classical roles on stage early in his career. He was reluctant at first to play ''Film/{{Django}}'' because he feared taking a role in a Western would prevent critics from taking him seriously. His fears proved unfounded, and Nero still got to play dramatic parts occasionally alongside his more famous action roles.
