Roberto Hoffmann was born in Salzburg (Austria) on August 30, 1939. Towards the end of the 1950s he arrived in Paris where he attend the acting course of Poule Vanneck.

Thanks to his strong resemblance to the star of the moment, Alain Delon, he comed to the cinema making his debut in the film La Tulipe noire (1964). Next, he also became the protagonist of the TV series Robinson Crusoe (1964): broadcast in half Europe, made him an international permormer. The debut in Italian cinema became with Io la conoscevo bene (1965) by Antonio Pietrangeli. Then he lived a short love story with Romina Power, knowned on the set of Come imparai ad amare le donne (1966). But most of all he achieved a great success with Giuliano Montaldo's Ad ogni costo (1967), which will also become the actor's favorite film.

Later he stars in Dallamano's Giallo La morte non ha sesso (1968), taked part in the disastrous cinematic project Assignment K (1968) by Val Guest (where he risked his life to rescue the protagonist Stephen Boyd from a burning car), and participated in the colossal La calata dei barbari (1968), alongside Orson Welles. In the 1971 he was in the cast of Le calde notti di Don Giovanni, but during the making he falls from the horse, fracturing his right femur: an accident that forces him to a short period of rest. He returned to Giallo the following year with the unconvincing Ragazza tutta nuda assassinata nel parco by Alfonso Brescia, followed by a better one, the "hard and raw" Pradeaux's Passi di danza su una lama di rasoio (1973) and above all Spasmo (1974) by Umberto Lenzi, the latest films shooted in Italy in which he achieve a good success.

Since the 1980s, till 2004, he has devoted himself mainly to German films and TV series.
