Welcome to Daniel Brühl's unofficial homesite!
Daniel Brühl is a young, interesting, ambitious actor who chooses his roles carefully, is not afraid of hard work and who has great prospects for the future in the international film industry.
Daniel first became well known in Germany through his performances in Das weisse Rauschen, Vaya con Dios and Elephantenherz, all of which won awards. But it was his role as Alexander Kerner in the comedy Good Bye, Lenin! which shot him to fame and brought acclaim from international audiences and critics alike. Daniel followed up this film with a strong performance as a rebel disaffected with modern Western society in Die fetten Jahre sind vorbei (The Edukators). He was then offered (arguably) his first English-language part, playing the romantic lead as a Polish violinist in Ladies in Lavender opposite the great British acting legends Dames Judi Dench and Maggie Smith. Daniel?s place as a truly pan-European actor has been secured by his moving Spanish and Catalan-speaking performance in the title role of Salvador, a film which was nominated for no fewer than 11 Goyas in 2006.
We welcome to our site all those who are charmed by his talent and good looks and also those who would simply like to find out more about him.

News: Daniel joins ''New Moon''! Posted by meininki on Wednesday, April 01 @ 12:01:33 CEST (698 reads) |  Update:
We hope you all had a lovely April Fools' Day. 
It looks like this might really be the year that Daniel will have his breakthrough in the English-speaking world. According to various sources, Daniel has joined the cast of the upcoming "Twilight" sequel "New Moon"! After it was announced this week that British actor Jamie Campbell-Bower is going to play Caius, we can now confirm that Daniel has been cast as one of the two remaining Volturi leaders, ancient Vampires that "are regarded as "royalty" by other vampires". Whether Daniel is going to play Aro, "who can read every thought a person has ever had once he has made physical contact", or Marcus, "who senses relationships", has not yet been confirmed.

News: Daniel to reunite with Wolfgang Becker Posted by meininki on Tuesday, February 03 @ 22:24:02 CET (574 reads) |  Today it was reported that Daniel is going to reunite with director Wolfgang Becker, six years after "Good Bye Lenin!" became a worldwide hit. Becker is going to adapt "Me and Kaminski" by German-Austrian writer Daniel Kehlmann ("Measuring the World"). Daniel is set to play the lead. About the novel: Sebastian Zollner is a journalist and art critic. He is not a likeable man. Belligerent, arrogant and impatient, he sets off to record the life and loves of the legendary (depending on whom he asks) painter Manuel Kaminski.
Zollner has few scruples, and shows little hesitation in bullying his way to “the truth”. He only hopes that Kaminski’s heart will last the duration (though it would be ideal if it gave up soon afterwards – death being the final ingredient for a bestseller).
