Axel Milberg, the grumpy investigator Borowski in Kiel for 20 years, is feeling a mix of melancholy and excitement as "Tatort" approaches its end. With a career spanning half an actor's life, Milberg credits the show's stress-resistant editorial team for his longevity. Directors who initially had no interest in Tatort but agreed to work in Kiel with Borowski made this journey memorable.
The German Press Agency interviewed Milberg, who thanked the team for their unwavering support. Among the talented directors he worked with were Christian Schwochow, Ilka Chertak, and Lars Kraume. Memorable films include scenes shot in Gothenburg, the Halligen islands, and even collaborations with crime writer Henning Mankell, a close friend who wrote four scripts for the show.
After "Tatort," the 67-year-old actor is eager to explore different media projects. Milberg, a fan of longer narrative formats, particularly multi-part series and seasons, believes they allow for more character development. In these storylines, characters have time to evolve and show their true selves not just within the confines of a 90-minute episode.
On Sunday at 8.15 p.m., catch Milberg in "Borowski and the Innocent Child of Wacken" on TV channel Ersten [1].
