Biographical Notes in German: Geboren 1909 im ägyptischen Alexandria als Sohn italienischer Eltern. Freda interessierte sich schon früh für das Kino, und als die Familie 1932 nach Italien zurückkehrte,arbeitete er in den Studios des Römer Centro Sperimentale, erst in der Ausstattung und später im Schneideraum. In Piccoli naufragi ist der Regieassistent, 1942 drehte er seinen ersten eigenen Film, Don Cesare di Bazan, den er auch für seine eigene Firma Elica produzierte.
Nach Kriegsende hatte Freda, der Rossellini's Neorealismus ablehnte, seinen Durchbruch mit der Pushkin Adaption Aquila Nera (1946). Der Film war auch das Debüt seiner späteren Frau, Gianna Maria Canale, die in manchen seiner Filme die Hauptrolle spielen würde. Neben mittelalterlichen Historienfilme wie Il cavaliere misterioso (1948), Il figlio di d'Artagnan (1950) und Beatrice Cenci (1956) drehte Freda - der auch Chef der italienischen Filmzensur war - auch die Peplum Spartaco (1953) und Teodora, Imperatrice di Bisanzio. Den Horror-Film I Vampiri beendete Freda nicht, der Film war die Chance für Fredas Kameramann Mario Bava, der die fehlenden Hälfte des Films in nur zwei Tagen abdrehte.
In den Sechziger Jahren entstehen Filme unterschiedlicher Qualität, manche unter dem Pseudonym Robert Hampton. 1967 entstand sein enziger Italo-Western La morte non conta i dollari, den er als George Lincoln firmierte. Für die Edgar-Wallace Serie drehte Freda 1969 A doppia Faccia (deutscher Titel: Das Gesicht im Dunkeln mit Klaus Kinski.
Zu einem Titel Superhuman finden sich keine Angaben, wahrscheinlich wurde der Film nie gedreht.
La Fille d'Artagnan von 1994 ist Fredas letzter Titel, der 84 jährige Regisseur wurde von Bertrand Tavernier abgelöst, der den Film mit Sophie Marceau fertigstellte. Riccardo Freda starb am 20. Dezember 1999 in Rom. (lhg 2014)
