Max Riemelt

Max Riemelt Biography

Max Riemelt (born in East Berlin, East Germany on 7 January 1984) is a German actor. He is known for playing Wolfgang Bogdanow in the television series Sense8.

Career

Riemelt started his career "by coincidence, because" he "had not really thought about getting involved in acting and had not joined any drama groups at school". He decided early on that he was not interested in the latter: "I have an aversion to drama schools because their methods seem suspect to me. The way they treat people is sometimes inhuman, they build people up and then break them. Some people can cope with this, but I don't want to risk that".

He explains that he feels "much happier in front of a camera than acting on a stage. I am a minimalist as far as my approach to acting is concerned" and prefers working for cinema, although "I am prepared to work for television if it is an interesting project, there is a good script and the characters are good."

Similarly, he welcomes the chance every now and then to act in student films "because it gives me the chance to try out things and bring in my own ideas and often create quite different characters from the ones they had originally planned".

He has starred in all of Dennis Gansel's feature films, starting with Mdchen, Mdchen.

Personal life

Riemelt was born in 1984 in Berlin and has lived there all of his life. His parents, Gunnar and Judith Riemelt, are both graphic artists. His interests are football, kickboxing and rap music.
