Herbert Forthuber Actor
Auszeichnung: Nominiert für "Best Actor" beim TMFF Film Festival Glasgow für die Hauptrolle Walter Kane in "The Two Gambits"
Wunderbare Kritik für Herberts Hauptrollen in The Two Gambits: The entire cast delivers captivating performances, but it is Forthuber’s portrayal of the soft-spoken Walter that truly steals the show. His nuanced performance keeps viewers glued to the screen,.
Ich bin Schauspieler. Nach vielen Lebenserfahrungen, Schauspielunterricht in Österreich sowie Privatunterricht und Masterclasses bei so renommierten Schauspielcoaches wie Suzanne Geyer (München), Bernard Hiller und Kirk Baltz (L.A.) habe ich in vielen bekannten Fillmen und Serien in Deutschland und Österreich mitgewirkt, unter anderem als 'Dr. Christoph Schickl' in der Krimireihe "Hubert ohne Staller", in der erfolgreichen Kinoproduktion "Mein Blind Date mit dem Leben" (Regie: Marc Rothemund) und vielen anderen. Neben deutschen und österreichischen Filmen und Serien war ich auch in internationalen Produktionen wie der US-Fantasy-Serie OUTLANDER als "Général d'Arbanville" zu sehen. Ich spreche muttersprachlich Deutsch, plus fließend Englisch und gut Französisch.

I' m a German-Austrian actor. My acting career took rise after various lifetime experiences, acting school in Austria and privat and masterclass coachings by the renowned acting coaches Suzanne Geyer (Germany), Bernard Hiller and Kirk Baltz (L.A.)
Among others, I have appeared as 'Dr. Christoph Schickl' in the German crime series 'Hubert ohne Staller' and in the acclaimed movie 'Mein Blind Date mit dem Leben' (Dir. Marc Rothemund). Aside from German and Austrian films, I landed roles in international productions such as 'James Bond: A Quantum of Solace' as a 'Quantum Partyguest' and as 'Général D'Arbanville' in the television series 'OUTLANDER' (2016). Speak German plus fluently English, good French and a little Italian.
