In “Tatort: Love is pain” (April 23, the first), actor Nils Hohenhövel (27) plays the extremely brutal and terribly desperate killer Mike Majewski, who stabs a tram driver right at the beginning of the film and then holds his face directly into the surveillance camera . Inspectors Peter Faber (Jörg Hartmann, 53), Jan Pawlak (Rick Okon, 34) and colleague Rosa Herzog (Stefanie Reinsperger, 35) find out why he did this and committed another murder…
Despite a somewhat constructed story, you can definitely believe Mike Majewski’s anger and despair. This is undoubtedly due to the acting skills of Nils Hohenhövel, who was born in the “crime scene” city par excellence. He came on October 11, 1995 in Münster, the North Rhine-Westphalian territory of the Sunday detective favorites Chief Inspector Frank Thiel (Axel Prahl, 63) and forensic pathologist Prof. Dr. dr Karl-Friedrich Boerne (Jan Josef Liefers, 58) was born.
He completed his acting training in Leipzig. Hohenhövel played his first leading role in a cinema in “Outside in my head” (2018). In it he embodied the FSJler Christoph, who assists Sven (Samuel Koch, 35), who suffers from muscular dystrophy. He played his first role in a Sunday thriller in the Berlin crime thriller “Tatort: The Perfect Crime” (2020). TV films like “Forever Parents” (2021) with ex-“Tatort” star Devid Striesow (49) followed. He was last seen in the mini-series “The Palace” (2021) and in the movie “The Kangaroo Conspiracy” (2022).
In the current year, Hohenhövel will appear in two other Sunday thrillers: The Cologne crime thriller “Des Andere Last” is likely to be broadcast around Christmas time. In addition, the Stuttgart “crime scene: torn” is coming up. And he is also part of the cast for “Das Boot” (season four). Streaming on Sky is expected to start in the second half of 2023.
