Career
[edit]In 2024, Leone starred as Ayrton Senna in the Netflix biographical series Senna. Reviewing the series for The Daily Telegraph, Benji Wilson noted that "not only is [Leone] a dead ringer for Senna, but he has also plainly done his research, with mannerisms and cadences all present and correct".[3]
