Other stage stations were the Bochum City Theater from 1938 to 1940, the Posen Reichsgautheater from 1940 to 1942 and the Strasbourg City Theater from 1942 to 1944.

He later played in the west of the city, for example at the Schloßparktheater , the Hebbel Theater and the stands . Krull played numerous classic main and character roles such as "Franz Moor" in Schiller's Robbers in Stuttgart or "John Worthing" in Oscar Wilde's Bunbury in 1955 at the Berlin Tribune. In addition to his work as an actor and director, he also wrote the musical comedy Game in Love with Friedrich Steig .
In addition, Krull also regularly took on roles in film and television productions. As early as 1950 he played in Paul Verhoeven's DEFA fairy tale classic The Cold Heart . In the Federal Republic of Germany he has appeared in front of the camera several times under the direction of Falk Harnack : in the historical dramas Anastasia, the last daughter of the Tsar and Ferdinand Graf von Zeppelin - The Hour of Decision , in the war film Restless Night , in the adventure film Fight for Rubber and in the drama A Gynecologist Complains on with Dieter Borsche . His other films include the Grethe-Weiser comedy Jenny und der Herr im Frack , the television drama Little Boy by Eberhard Itzenplitz and the Edgar Wallace crime thriller Im Banne des Unheimlichen .

Krull was the main actor in one of the first playback programs on German television. On December 9, 1953, a production of La Traviata was broadcast live as a television opera, in which Krull in the lead role of "Alfred Germont" took off his lips after the previously recorded tape singing by the tenor Hugo Sieberg. He also worked as a speaker for radio and radio play productions.
