Felleghy was born in Budapest in 1921. He studied at the Academy of Drama and was active as an actor and director in the theatre. Following the Hungarian Revolution of 1956, he moved to Italy with his friend John Bartha, where he found a new career as a character actor in films. Felleghy became well-known to genre film fans for his many supporting roles in various Spaghetti Western, Eurospy, Euro War, giallo and horror films. Thanks to his stereotypically "posh" appearance, he often portrayed lawyers, lawmen, doctors, military officers, aristocrats, and other upper-class characters. He played his only leading role in the 1964 Norwegian film Marenco (film). From 1967 to 1974, he recurred on the advertising program Carosello, where he was a spokesperson for Cynar (among other products). Felleghy died in Bracciano, Lazio on 13 September 2005, at the age of 83.
