National Geographic invites audiences on a mouthwatering journey with Academy Award®-nominee and Emmy®- and Golden Globe®-winner Stanley Tucci in TUCCI IN ITALY. Produced by Tucci’s SALT Productions and BBC Studios Specialist Factual Productions, the five-part series follows Tucci across Italy’s stunning landscapes as he explores the deep connections between food, culture and history.
More than a travelogue, it’s a rich, narrative-driven dive into the country’s iconic culinary traditions. Along the way, Tucci meets locals, chefs, artisans—and even cowboys—to uncover hidden gems and untold stories with National Geographic’s signature storytelling and his trademark wit. Tucci indulges in a Sienese feast in Tuscany, samples farm-to-table innovation in Lombardy, and rediscovers Lazio’s rustic soul. For the first time, he visits Trentino-Alto Adige for pine needle pesto in the Alps and explores Abruzzo’s wild seafood rituals atop a centuries-old trabocco. This is Italy like you’ve never seen it—flavorful, heartfelt and unforgettable.
