They Call Me Jeeg (Italian: Lo chiamavano Jeeg Robot, transl. "They called him Jeeg Robot"; Japanese: 皆はこう呼んだ、「鋼鉄ジーグ」, romanized: Mina wa kō yonda, "Kōtetsu Jīgu", transl. "Everybody called Steel Jeeg") is a 2015 Italian superhero film directed by Gabriele Mainetti and starring Claudio Santamaria in the lead role. The plot centers around a lonely misanthropic crook named Enzo, who gets superhuman strength after being exposed to radioactive waste in the Tiber waters. The film is a tribute to the manga and anime series Steel Jeeg (Jeeg Robot d'acciaio in Italy, where it is very popular) by Gō Nagai, from which takes up some thematics; the title is an in-joke based on the character Alessia, who believes that the hero of the anime, Hiroshi Shiba, exists in the real world,
