Lead Singer of Scorpions Acts in a Motion Picture - Rock Star Klaus Meine, lead vocalist of Scorpions, appears in a film.
Living Legend Klaus Meine Grabs the Spotlight in "Superbuhei"
Klaus Meine (77), rock royalty and frontman of the Scorpions, dives headfirst into the world of cinema. The heavy metal maestro snagged a guest role in the upcoming flick "Nordlichter" production, "Superbuhei." Filming is underway in Hannover, with Meine's appearance marking a new chapter in his illustrious career—he previously popped up in the 1992 film "Otto – Der Liebesfilm."
Trivia Bite: The movie script revolves around a bizarre tavern called "Klaus Meine," a nod to Hannover's rock legend. This peculiar watering hole can be found inside a supermarket, earning its reputation as the "gravest bar on earth." Day-in, day-out, the same patrons settle in for a draught and blast Scorpions tunes.
Majestic Premiere Scheduled for 2026
Oliver Korittke (57, "Wilsberg") grabs the lead role as Jesse Bronske, the bar owner who mirrors his boozy regulars' daily doses. By his side stands Silke Bodenbender (51, "Rosenthal") as Mona, who endeavors to breathe life back into Jesse's world. Also gracing the screen will be Jan Georg Schütte, Milton Welsh, Leni Rabbel, Jan Henrik Stahlberg, and Susanne Bredehöft.
"Superbuhei" serves as emerging director Josef Brandl's first feature film. Having earned the Short Tiger Award for his short film of the same name in 2024, Brandl is nothing short of ambitious[3][5]. Filming will persist until July 9 in Hannover and beyond, with a late 2026 cinematic release date on the horizon[1][2][5].
"Superbuhei" emerges as a product of the Nordlichter talent-nurturing program, granting aspiring filmmakers the opportunity to breathe life into Nordic genre tales.
