Actor: Matthias Schweighöfer: Could be more dad in the pandemic

The pandemic slowed Matthias Schweighöfer’s life – and fundamentally changed his definition of success. A midlife crisis helped to reorganize his life.

For filmmaker and actor Matthias Schweighöfer, the corona pandemic was also a time to pause. He noticed that he was traveling too fast beforehand, the 40-year-old told the “Augsburger Allgemeine”.

«I no longer had to rush from one event to another, but had the peace and quiet to write and develop scripts. I could also be more of a dad. ” He has calmed down and hopes to be able to keep that up.

Schweighöfer has been in a relationship with his colleague Ruby O. Fee (25) for several years, but acting is not a big issue for them. «The important thing is that we have healthy communication. There is no dependence on one another, no expectations of the other. Everyone has equal rights, everyone takes responsibility. ”

The reason to reorganize your own life was probably his midlife crisis, said Schweighöfer. Before he had looked relatively little at his private life, now he was more concerned with himself. «My life doesn’t have to be all about success. Success is cool, but tomorrow it will be over. ”

Schweighöfer can currently be seen in the zombie shocker “Army Of The Dead” on the Netflix streaming service. There he plays a clumsy safe cracker.
