At the end of August, Sat.1 will launch a new medical series: “Die Spreewaldklinik”. In addition to Baumeister in his white coat, other stars will also be appearing in the series.
Emotionally against the grain: For actress Muriel Baumeister (“In aller Freundschaft”), her role in the new Sat.1 early evening series “Die Spreewaldklinik” (from August 29th) has a special appeal. “Anyone who knows me personally knows that I am all about feeling and that I live strongly from my intuition,” said Baumeister (52) at a press event in Hamburg. And explained: “The head doctor I play, Dr. Barbara Berg, is the exact opposite. She acts in a totally rational and controlled manner. She doesn’t have much empathy either.” Nevertheless, the doctor can occasionally show a little heart, which becomes apparent over the course of the 80 episodes. They are produced by the company ndF.
Baumeister is actually very emotional
Playing against her own character in this way is a lot of fun for her, said Baumeister during the presentation of the 2024/25 program of the ProSiebenSat.1 Media broadcasting group in the Hanseatic city. “The Spreewald Clinic” has been filming in Lübben, Brandenburg, since April. In it, the German-Austrian artist acts as the opponent of her colleague Sina-Valeska Jung (“Alles was zählt”) as Dr. Lea Wolff. She comes to the Spreewald not only to find professional fulfillment there, but also to look for her daughter, whom she had to give up for adoption as a teenager 20 years ago.
Other actors include Karsten Speck (“Stasikomedy”) as senior physician Dr. Gregor Wemuth, as well as Isabel Hinz and Daniel Buder. Various directors are responsible for the script by Mauel Meimberg.
