Kjell Brutscheidt
Acting
The German actor Kjell Brutscheidt was born on 23rd April 1996, in Dusseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, and is known for his performances in âSpreewaldkrimiâ, âThe Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakesâ, and âIch bin Sophie Schollâ. The thespian perfected his craft at the August Everding Theater Academy in Munich, and appeared in a number of stage productions in Berlin and Munich, performing at prestigious venues such as the Opernhaus Zurich and Schauspielhaus DĂźsseldorf. In the 2019/20 season, Kjell was part of the Theater Bielefeldâs first interdisciplinary studio. The following year, the actor debuted in front of cameras with two projects: âSpreewaldkrimiâ and the popular Instagram series âI am Sophie Schollâ. 2022 saw Kjell explore a variety of genres, from crime shows (âPolice Call 110â, âZeit der Abrechnungâ) to historical movies (âDer junge Hauptling Winnetouâ). The German also guest-starred in episodes of âIn aller Freundschaftâ, âSarah Kohrâ, and âMorden im Nordenâ. In 2022, he landed his biggest role to date with his casting as Tanner in âThe Hunger Games: A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakesâ, which is the fifth movie in the âHunger Gamesâ franchise, but serves as the prequel. The dystopian action movie, which was filmed with an extravagant $100 million budget, has a November 2023 theatrical release date in the US, and is on track to earn $50 million in its opening weekend. Although Kjell has less than two thousand Instagram followers at the time of writing, this is likely to change when âA Ballad of Songbirds and Snakesâ premieres in cinemas. The actor is known to engage with his fans by replying to their comments, and enjoys sharing glimpses of his day-to-day life, be it a night out with friends or an important industry event. Kjellâs distinctive physical appearance has been a topic of discussion recently, as the âBallad of Songbirds and Snakesâ cast attended the world premiere of the movie in early November 2023. The actor appears to have some sort of eye condition, as he is unable to open his left eye; however, heâs never discussed the subject in interviews or via social media, but may well share the story behind his eye in the future. For now, Kjellâs net worth is approximately $250,000. His height is listed as 5ft 8in (172cm).
