Biography

Born in Zagreb to a father Krešimir (1933–1998), who was also an actor, and a mother Danica "Seka" Zidarić (d. 2018), Ranko graduated at the Academy of Dramatic Art at the University of Zagreb in 1990.

Since 1988, he amassed over forty leading and supporting roles in the Gavella Drama Theatre, where he remains a member of the drama ensemble.[3] These include Richard the Third, Antigone, Peer Gynt, The Brick and Three Sisters.[4][5] He voiced Buzz Lightyear in the Croatian-language dub of the Toy Story franchise and Makunga in Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa.[6][7]

In 2012, on behalf of the "Sova Zone" project, he starred, co-written and co-produced the sitcom Špica, with Gavella colleague Filip Šovagović.[8] While the series did draw critical praise,[9] it didn't last more than one season.[10]

Personal life

In 1994, Zidarić married Croatian film director Saša Broz, a granddaughter of the President of Yugoslavia Josip Broz Tito. They have a daughter Sara, and got divorced in 2000.[11][12][13]

In 2007, Zidarić married his second wife Ivana Uhlik, with whom he has a daughter Zora.[14]
