The artistic and cultural pull has always been a part of Matteo Della Putta’s life. Born in Cremona, Italy, Matteo was deeply moved by both the arts and humanitarian issues. A pivotal English teacher in middle school introduced him to the vastness beyond his local surroundings, kindling a lasting interest in different languages, myriad cultures, and the allure of travel. Led by this teacher’s guidance, Matteo plunged into the linguistic world during his specialized high school years, exploring English, French, and German languages along with their rich literature. Despite his linguistic pursuits, the urge for artistic expression always held a special place in his heart.
At the age of 16, Matteo embarked on his artistic journey by joining a local theatre group, “VarieAzioni,” in Cremona. From ensemble roles in the group’s debut production to more intricate characters like Haemon in “Antigone,” Matteo’s journey in the theatre marked a significant chapter, reinforcing his love for acting and steering him towards his artistic aspirations.
After high school, he relocated to Los Angeles to join the prestigious American Academy of Dramatic Arts (AADA), further refining his acting abilities. However, the unexpected onset of a global pandemic forced him to interrupt his studies and return to Italy. Despite the upheaval, Matteo demonstrated resilience and used this time to further his personal and artistic development. He enrolled in the New York Film Academy (NYFA) in Florence and took an online psychology course to understand human behavior and emotions more deeply.
Cremona to Hollywood: Matteo’s Journey
In 2021, Matteo made his way back to Los Angeles with renewed determination, completing his degree at AADA in May 2022. With a polished set of skills and an intense passion for acting, he quickly made his way into the film industry, securing lead roles in several short films and a role in a feature film.
Matteo proved his acting prowess by tackling the intense subject of depression in the short film “Letargia.” His portrayal of a character wrestling with their mind has earned recognition, with the film being considered for numerous festivals globally. In “Unbearable,” Matteo played a character dealing with PTSD from an abusive past, shining a light on the profound effects of trauma. In “The Elysian,” he entered the world of suspense and mystery, playing a mysterious killer with skill. His range was further demonstrated in “The Freaks,” where he combined his love for acting and music, and in “Arena,” a feature film where he played a professor considered mad by society.
