Jan Josef Liefers
We have another German actor who hit his acting career peak in the 1990s. Jan Josef Liefers also starred alongside Til Schweiger in Knockin’ on Heaven’s Door. It’s been over two decades since the German actors acted together, and Jan has pretty much brought his acting talents back to his home country.
After his brief stint in Hollywood, he returned to Germany and landed the role of Professor Dr. Karl Friedrich Boerne in the ever-famous crime series, Tatort. He left the series in 2014 and has pretty much kept himself out of the spotlight. He definitely deserves a few years of privacy after the prolific acting career he’s had for most of his adult life.
