Til Schweiger: Embracing Mistakes and Moving Forward
In a candid chat with "Bild," Til Schweiger (59), the renowned German actor and director, opened up about his new film "Das Beste kommt noch!" and his peace of mind.
Til on Self-Discovery and Responsibility
"I've always been at ease with myself, even when I've fallen short," explains the multi-talented celebrity. He's always instilled in his children that it's okay to make mistakes, but's essential to own up to them, apologize, and refrain from pinning the blame on others.
Uproar Surrounding "Manta Manta - Zwoter Teil"
Rumors of misconduct swirled in the spring when serious claims were leveled against Schweiger, with accusations of power abuse and alcohol indiscretions on the set of "Manta Manta - Part Two." When asked about being labeled a "tyrant" in October's "Stern," Schweiger said, "The allegations hit me hard. No one should fear me; I'm a considerate person."
An External Report: Mixed Reviews on Set Atmosphere
The external report commissioned by the film studio, Constantin Film, on the alleged "climate of fear" on the set revealed a mixed bag. While many respondents rated the atmosphere between "very good" and "acceptable," some also rated it "poor" or "not particularly good."
Sugar for the Monkey: Schweiger's Self-Reflection
"An investigation was conducted into the incidents on the set of 'Manta Manta - Part Two,' but at the end of the day, little remained of the accusations against me," Schweiger tells "Bild." He admitted to mistakes and apologized wholeheartedly for his actions during filming.
Turning the Tide: Encouragement and Regained Confidence
Despite the negative press, Schweiger's career survived unscathed. When asked whether he feared a decline in interest in his films, he confidently answered, "Not in the least. In fact, after the 'Der Spiegel' article, I was expecting angry critics, but instead, I've received an overwhelming amount of support and encouragement."
"The best is yet to come!" can be seen in theaters starting December 7.
