Life
The son of a merchant marine captain participated in the Second World War and was captured by the British. After the end of the war he lived in Egypt for a while, where he worked, among other things, as a ship agent and receptionist. At the beginning of the 1950s he settled in Italy, where he made his first films and was also a voice actor.
In 1955 he returned to Germany and played theater in Munich, Bad Hersfeld, Basel and Stuttgart. In 1957 he acted disguised as a wolf in a film adaptation of the fairy tale The Wolf and the Seven Goats . He was offered better offers in international film productions , for example in the classic war film The Longest Day .
Since he was regularly cast for roles of German Wehrmacht officers, he categorically rejected film roles of this kind from 1963. Kindermann then advanced to become an important voice actor. He was the German voice of Charlton Heston several times and occasionally of William Holden , Stewart Granger (in Der Ölprinz ), Michel Piccoli , Robert Hossein (in the Angélique films) and especially of Marshall Thompson in the television series Daktari .
Helmo Kindermann was also a radio play speaker . Among other things, he spoke the leading role of Perry Rhodan in the first Perry Rhodan radio play series of the radio play label Europe from 1973.
Kindermann lived with his wife Alice in Ratzeburg . After retiring from acting, Kindermann moved to northern Italy (to Lake Como), where he spent his old age and also died. The sometimes circulating year of death 1983 can be regarded as incorrect.
