David Kross Career

Career

His career began with a small appearance in the 2002 film Hilfe, ich bin bin bin binge Junge (English: Please, I'm a Boy). He joined Blaues Wölkchen, a tiny group from a children's theatre in Bargteheide, in December 2003. Die Herdmanns' debut in Hilfe was his first major theatrical performance.

Kross attracted Detlev Buck's attention through his son, Bernadette, in 2005; Buck recruited Kross to play the lead; a 15-year-old boy who moves with his mother from a wealthy Berlin neighborhood (Zehlendorf) to the Neukölln area, which is also known for the high number of Turkish immigrants and high crime level. Kross not only received accolades at Berlinale in 2006, but also earned Best Actor in Nuremberg at the 11th Filmfestival in Türkei/Germanland.

Kross appeared in the film Hands off Mississippi (Hände weg von Mississippi), as an apprentice baker. He started shooting a film directed by Marco Kreuzpaintner, Krabat, in the fall of the same year. Kross plays the title role in this adaptation of Otfried Preußler's children's book, alongside co-stars Daniel Brühl and Robert Stadlober. In September 2007, the film was first shown at cine festivals and in October 2008 in theaters.

The Reader began shooting in Berlin, Cologne, and Görlitz in September 2007. Kross plays Michael Berg, opposite Kate Winslet, Ralph Fiennes, and Bruno Ganz in Stephen Daldry's reimagining of Bernhard Schlink's best-selling book about a teenage boy and an older woman. To appear in the film, he had to learn to speak English. On December 3, 2008, the world premiere took place at the Ziegfeld Theatre in New York. In the 2009 Berlinale, the film was shown but did not compete. Kross was praised at The Reader in May 2009, winning the Chopard trophy. Kross was nominated for a European Film Award as best actor.

In Same Same But Different (2009), Buck's next project was in Same Same But Different, but Different (2009), with Buck in charge. The script is based on Benjamin Prüfer's autobiographical article.

Kross was cast in Steven Spielberg's film War Horse in June 2010. Filming began in August 2010 in Dartmoor, Devon, United Kingdom, and the film was released in December 2011.

EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Has Labour's planned VAT raid on private schools forced one of Britain's best-known royal prep schools to change its name?

www.dailymail.co.uk, July 3, 2024
EDEN CONFIDENTIAL: Labour's assault on private education is now rubbing off on a royal seat of learning. I hear that one of Britain's best-known prep schools is about to change its identity more than 200 years after its foundation, citing 'an increasingly uncertain world' as one of the reasons. Eagle House, near Sandhurst in Berkshire - which recently included the Earl of Wessex , son of the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh , among its pupils - will be no more from the autumn. Instead, it is to be brought under the umbrella of Wellington College, the famous public school, and will be rebranded as 'Wellington College Prep'.
