Axel Stein
Biography
Axel Stein is a German actor, comedian, and voice actor.
As early as age twelve, Axel Stein played several guest roles in television series and appeared in German commercials for the Tamagotchi-like Digimon Virtual Pets. His television career began in 1998 with the series Hausmeister Krause. In 2000, he starred as a lead actor in a feature film for the first time in Marc Rothemund’s comedy Harte Jungs.
In 2001 and 2002, Stein made guest appearances in German television series such as Der Fahnder and SK Kölsch, and filmed TV movies and feature films including Schule, Die Klasse von ’99, Feuer, Eis & Dosenbier, and Knallharte Jungs. During this same period, he produced his first original comedy series for television, Axel!. In 2003, the series was further developed and subsequently aired under the title Axel! will’s wissen. This was followed by additional roles in feature films such as Barfuss (2005) and 7 Zwerge – Der Wald ist nicht genug (2006). In 2007, he appeared in the film Kein Bund für’s Leben.
Stein made regular appearances at variety shows and events hosted by colleagues such as Stefan Raab. In 2011, he joined the new cast of the Sat.1 program Die Wochenshow. Starting in February 2013, he took on the lead role in the action-comedy film Turbo und Tacho—a spin-off of the hit series Alarm für Cobra 11 – Die Autobahnpolizei—in which he had previously appeared twice playing the same character. Turbo und Tacho served as the pilot film for a standalone television series; however, due to a lack of audience response, the series was never produced.
