biography

Michael Härle studied at the Berlin Academy of Dramatic Arts "Ernst Busch" and then began to gain a foothold as a theater actor on various stages in the capital. In 1991 he appeared in the play Mercedes at the Theater in der Fabrik, which was followed by Arthur Schnitzler's one-act play The Green Cockatoo and the Elizabethan tragic comedy Changeling at the Berliner Arbeiter-Theater (bat). In 1993 he was awarded the young talent award at the meeting of German-speaking drama schools in Vienna. In 1995 Härle, whose skills include ju-jutsu , fencing and English and Italian language skills, acted under the direction of Leanore Ickstadt in Mayhem at the Theater am Halleschen Ufer. However, the play, in which six dancers and three actors took on the development process of acts of violence, failed the critics.

Parallel to his work in the theater, Michael Härle began to appear in film and television productions from 1990 onwards. He made his television debut with a small supporting role in Frank Beyer's war drama The Last U-Boot with Ulrich Mühe and Ulrich Tukur , whereupon he made guest appearances in television series such as Max Wolkenstein ( Sat.1 , 1995), or Wolffs Revier (Sat.1, 1997) completed. In the RTL series Die Feuerengel ( RTL , 1997) he played his first continuous series leading role. The series was discontinued after 13 episodes. The breakthrough as an actor came in 2002 with the lead role in the Sat.1 series Moving Men . In the sitcom , which is loosely based on Sönke Wortmann's hit film The Moving Man (1994), Härle took over the part that Til Schweiger had embodied in the theatrical version - an attractive heterosexual who had just separated from his girlfriend and temporarily moved into the household of a homosexual single ( Oliver Muth in the role of Joachim Król ) moves in and makes the acquaintance of his gay friends. The half-hour evening series produced by Oliver Berben , which engaged well-known guest stars such as Iris Berben , Oliver Korittke or Ingolf Lück for each episode , was a success with the audience. In 2003 Michael Härle was nominated for the German Television Award as best actor in a sitcom together with his series colleagues Oliver Muth, Victor Schefé and Ingo Naujoks , but had to admit defeat to Walter Sittler ( Nikola ).

After three seasons and 39 wacky episodes, the series Moving Men was discontinued in 2005, whereupon Michael Härle was given the male lead in the ProSieben television film Girls Overboard (2005). In the romantic comedy, which was rated by the Süddeutsche Zeitung as “a film like a gummy bear bag” , the 1.75 m tall mime can be seen as the ship's doctor on the cruise ship AIDA , who wins the heart of the belligerent Isabell Gerschke . A year later, Härle joined the regular cast around Claudia Schmutzler and Udo Kroschwald with a recurring role in the ZDF crime series SOKO Wismar . Since the fourth season he has acted as chief detective Sven Herzog, who has turned his back on love because of Berlin and a steep career and, due to his “metropolitan temperament”, does not meet with much approval from his colleagues. He left the series in 2010 after the 8th season (after 99 episodes). His successor in the series was Jonas Laux .
