Title: A Pinch of "The Wasp" in Season 3
Eddie "The Wasp" Frotzke makes a comeback in the third season of this popular comedy series, premiering on Sky December 2, 2023. Known for its wacky humor and authentic portrayal of the grittier sides of Berlin, the series continues to delight viewers.
The Wasp's Tangled Web
In season 3, Eddie's life becomes entwined with unexpected guests. His older brother, Ecki, arrives on the scene. Sharing a mutual love for darts, the brothers' relationship is far from harmonious. With different approaches to the sport, they've built up a heartfelt dislike for each other. Ecki, who never quite achieved the same success in darts, sets his sights on double-crossing Eddie, sabotaging his meals and having his car towed away on their way to a tournament.
Yet, Eddie's troubles extend beyond his family. A 14-year-old teenager named Maxie claims to be his daughter, forcing him to train and drive her as they embark on a competition 700 kilometers away. Unsurprisingly, Eddie's wife Manu isn't pleased, and for good reason.
The Familiar Faces of Season 3
Florian Lukas, embodying the title character of Eddie, and Lisa Wagner as Eddie's wife Manu (alias "The Rattlesnake") return for this season. Lisa Wagner, having won the German Acting Award for her role, is set to dazzle viewers once more.
Supporting roles are filled with seasoned talent, such as Ulrich Noethen, Meret Becker, and Peter Lohmeyer from previous seasons. In an exciting twist, Matthias Mattschke, best known for his humorous roles in "Polizeiruf 110" and "Sketch History," joins the cast as Eddie's older brother Ecki.
To play the role of Maxie, the series turns to Sophie Paasch, a relatively unknown actress with small roles in various series. Other buzzy actors, such as Oscar Ortega Sánchez, Bernd Tauber, and Milena Dreißig, lend their talents to season 3.
At the Helm: A Director with a Vision
Season 3 also boasts a combination of familiar and new faces behind the scenes. As in previous seasons, series creator Jan Berger helms the writing, while Gregor Schnitzler, director of critically acclaimed films, takes the reins for all six episodes.
