Early life

Nanni was born in Bologna to a cardiologist father, Samuele, and an endocrinologist mother, Mascia (née Anagni).[2][3][4] His father is from Santa Sofia and his mother, who is of Russian descent, is from Galeata.[5][6] He has a younger brother, Gioele, and a younger sister, Aurora.[3]

He grew up in San Lazzaro di Savena, and attended the Istituto Sant'Alberto Magno [it] and the Liceo ginnasio statale Luigi Galvani [it] in Bologna. He also attended high school in Los Angeles for a year.[3][4][7] In 2018, he moved to Milan to attend university.[6]

He began acting after auditioning for a Ringo [it] commercial with footballer Kaká, of whom he was a fan.[4][8] Although he did not land the commercial, a casting agent reached out to him about appearing in the 2012 miniseries The Charterhouse of Parma [it], which marked his acting debut.[2]
