The actor also spoke to Fatto Quotidiano about his relationship with Cortina and sport: “I have never been an athlete, I have never moved a muscle. I am a champion of some disciplines: f… and aperitifs”

January 17, 2026 (changed at 1.17pm) – MILAN

Massimo Boldi will be the torchbearer for the Milan-Cortina 2026 Olympics. The torch, in fact, will also end up in the hands of the actor: “They promised me only six hundred meters – he said in an interview with Fatto Quotidiano -, if it were more I don’t know how I would get there. I’m no longer a kid”.

“I didn’t take a euro”

Boldi then joked that he wasn’t exactly an athlete in his life. “I’ve never moved a muscle. I’m not a sportsman. But the Olympic Committee called me and I accepted. And I didn’t get a single euro.” Then he indulged in his usual jokes. “There are actually a few disciplines in which I am a champion: f… and aperitifs.”

curtain films

The actor said he was attached to Cortina, where he shot several films. “I still remember when I made films with Christian De Sica and Megan Gale. What times. Even if the best moment of the film was when they gave me the salary. Then the checks were serious.” In the films he played the character of Ettore Colombo: “Someone who had nothing to do with the VIP curtain. I’m really like that. I’m not rich. I like to hang out in that world, stick my nose into it, have fun, but also laugh at it. I’m also a normal guy, I have a family, three daughters.”
