Little Known Spaghetti Western Actors ~ Enrico Casadei

[These daily posts will cover little known actors or people that have appeared in more recent films and TV series. Various degrees of information that I was able to find will be given and anything that you can add would be appreciated.]

Enrico Casadei is/was the brother of stuntman and actor Angelo Casadei [1919-2000]. Angelo was a staff manager for extras at Cinecitta Studios and therefore was able to provide his brother Enrico with quite a bit of work as an extra to actual credited roles.

I can find no biographical information on Enrico.

He appeared in 24 Spaghetti westerns that I know of but could have been in several more as an unseen or noticed extra over the years.
