Biography

He is the son of Italian scriptwriter and movie director Giuseppe Moccia, and his childhood was linked to the world of cinema through his father, which he wrote in several Italian comedies of the 70s and 80s. It started in the world of work from his father at age 19 as assistant director Attila flagello di Dio (1982). Five years later he directed his first film, Palla al centro, but the lack of success he had caused Moccia wrote screenplays and directed several series. In 1992 he wrote his first novel Three Meters Above Heaven [it] which was rejected by several publishers and released in a small edition by Il Ventaglio publishing house. Again without success, in 1996 wrote and directed the film Classe mista 3ª A [it] and returned to the world of television. In 2004, twelve years after its first edition, Three Meters Above Heaven had a reissue, becoming a bestseller and a same title movie, also receiving several awards and translations into several languages (also Portuguese and Japanese). In 2006 he published I Want You, sequel to the previous novel, which was so successful that it was decided, again, to adapt it to film. Something similar happened with Sorry but I Call You Love [it] (2007), prequel of Sorry but I Want to Marry You [it] (2009) whose premiere was in 2010.

In 2017 he wrote Three Times You [it] which was the last book of the series of Three Meters Above Heaven. Summertime, a TV show based on the same series, premiered on Netflix in 2020.

He considers himself Roman Catholic.[2]
