Nero is the nephew of actors Corin (1939–2010) and Lynn Redgrave (1943–2010), cousin to actress Jemma Redgrave, and the uncle of Micheál Richardson and Daisy Bevan.

When Nero was about two years old, his parents separated. Consequently, he divided his childhood between Italy with his father and London with his mother.{{Cite news |last=Scott |first=Danny |date=May 27, 2016 |title=Relative Values: Vanessa Redgrave and her son, Carlo Gabriel Nero |url=https://www.thetimes.com/culture/tv-radio/article/relative-values-x9qh29gmj |archive-url=https://archive.today/20240820191334/https://www.thetimes.com/culture/tv-radio/article/relative-values-x9qh29gmj |archive-date=August 20, 2024 |work=The Times}}

Vanessa Redgrave said in a 2016 interview with The Times, "It's no surprise that Carlo has ended up in the film business; he just happens to prefer being on the other side of the camera."

In 1999, Nero's first feature film as writer/director, Uninvited, was released. The film, adapted from James Gabriel Berman's book of the same name, was screened at numerous international film festivals, including Cannes.

Nero directed his mother Vanessa Redgrave, Angelina Jolie, and his sister Joely Richardson, in the 2004 HBO movie,The Fever. The film was adapted by a play written by actor Wallace Shawn.
