… to my clients, some of whom have accompanied me from the very beginning, for the inspiring, wonderful, beautiful and yes, sometimes challenging collaboration. It is a great gift to walk this path with you, to be able to participate in 40 other lives and to be creative in the closest of exchanges.

(Speaking of which, I know that as I write these lines, a surprise is being prepared by you, I’m looking forward to Christmas like a child!!!)

Big thanks also go out to other companions, my incredible, still growing, great network: to colleagues, producers, directors, cast members, my webmasters, my lawyer, my coach, what would I be without you, and last but not least to my family and to my husband. Thank you for your support, your ear, your heart and your (fighting) spirit.

This gives me the strength and energy, the motivation and desire for at least 10 more years with you 😉

Love you all!
Kerstin

“Halloween – This childhood photo was taken in 1980 – Some years before Halloween became an American event tradition here in Europe as we know it today – some years before my birthday was pimped with pumpkins, spiders and skeletons – and some years before Halloween really owned October 31 and turned me into Birthday Boy with little paper hat on curly head when everybody else was tricking and treating as Freddy Krueger or Chucky 🙂 “ – Peter Pilegaard

“I didn’t think I had childhood ‚heroes‘, but still in the end I realised I had –  kind of. One of my absolutely biggest ‚heroes‘ and inspirations happens to be the lovely Gena Rowlands, who recently passed away. In my opinion, she was one of the best actors in the world. What she did in every picture frame was so true, so strong, so spellbinding, so touching. So when I got to walk in her shoes by playing Jeannie Rapp in the stage version of ‚faces‘ it was like I came full circle.”
– Hanna Ullerstam

In fact, I just watched Hanna’s first showreel scene again and thought, everything she so wonderfully says about Gena Rowland is so true about Hanna and her acting, too!

> Watch scene!

*** Happy birthday, dear Hanna! Have a lovely day with lots of love. We’re proud to represent you and are looking forward to new adventures!

Bochum, I come from you! I’m glad to have grown up in the Ruhr area, I always enjoy being there, I love the direct interaction ‘without fuss’ and false tones.

By the way, my grandpa Kuhlenberg was a director and actor in a theatre group of miners, I think it was called ‘Urania’.

And when I was still at primary school, I tried to put on a production of ‘The Emperor’s New Clothes’ with my neighbours’ children. It was great fun for everyone, but the whole thing failed because nobody wanted to appear naked.

As a child, I improvised scenes with a friend and then showed them to the family for 50 pfennigs. It was always about the madam and the servant. I was always the servant, voluntarily, the madam seemed boring to me. The servant had the opportunity to be funny, to put her foot in her mouth. I liked that. Anyway, I see myself as a comedian, nobody thinks so, because I have a completely different outward appearance. I’m also very shy, but comedians often are.

Dear Hildegard, you have so much love for acting and storytelling – a true servant of our art! 🙂 We wish you all the best for your birthday, are happy to represent you and look forward to making you shine many more times!

In his home country Georgia, he has long been one of the most renowned and requested actors … this year he even appeared on ‘The Masked Singer’ in Georgia and sang and danced so fantastically that the judges thought he must be a newcomer talent!

I personally have been captivated by him on stage at the Grillo Theatre in Essen several times; all the prouder and happier am I now to represent him and bring him more and more to German and international audiences!

One could certainly fill pages with stories and references about Rezo …

Instead, why not jump straight to his profile and get a fresh impression from his CV and his outstanding photos and showreel scenes!

A warm welcome to you, dear Rezo, many thanks for your trust & here’s to a fantastic collaboration!

For Marcel’s day of honour, we’re giving you a few role fantasies :

Marcel … alias ‘The Constable’, who is distracted and ensnared by a secret agent, gives up his post in a moment of negligence and thus makes a grand theft possible, but in the end, as the bait, heroically catches the charming villainess.

Marcel … alias ‘The Coach’, who moves from beautiful Cologne to Brandenburg with his children to pursue his wife’s career and threatens to drown there, but then loses his heart to building up a youth football team that creates an unexpected unity among the kids and their parents in this area.

Marcel … alias ‘El Turista’, a big businessman who builds up a Spanish island as a cruise holiday oasis and thus exposes it to destruction, but — when he suffers a sudden private loss — makes an inner U-turn and secretly begins to invest the company’s profits in building up the island and its inhabitants until they solemnly cancel the cruise deal, celebrating El Turista as their hero.

Dear Marcel, all the best! We are proud to represent you!

We’re talking about a debut film called ‘Goodman’ by Jonas Bohm. Carl takes on one of the main characters in the film, Hank Thompson: a passionate and paranoia-ridden head of logistics of a drug cartel, for whom nothing less than everything is at stake.

Many weeks of hard work and dedication have come to an end for Carl, and the first samples already promise that he has been allowed to unleash his acting intensity to the full.
We look forward to keeping you up to date as soon as it is released, or we can show and tell you more.

Now Carl is available again and ready for new adventurous challenges!
