Import Of The Day: Vinzenz Kiefer



German actor Vinzenz Kiefer dreamed of being a action hero on the silver screen since he was a boy watching his parents VHS collection. Batman and Zorro were two of his favorites. Vinzenz's dream was touched by fate when as a kid he was taking a studio tour in Cologne. Vinzenz was attracting the attention of many of the teenage girls on the tour, most who assumed he was a star and wanted his autograph. The attention he was receiving did not go unnoticed by some people in production and before too long he was being offered roles in television. Although he initially resisted, upon completion of school, he relented and began his first professional roles on television.



As began working in the business, Vinzenz continued to study, this time with a focus on acting. He studied with some of the best acting teachers in Germany and came to the US to spend time at the Strasberg Institute in New York in 2002. Although mostly known for his roles in German television and film, the young actor did appear in a small role along side Emile Hirsch in 2008's Speed Racer when the film was shooting in Germany.
