Niklas Roling Actor
Niklas Roling is an actor with extensive experience both in front of and behind the camera. While studying Musical Theatre at the Institute of Music in Osnabrück, he gained his first on-set experience, appearing in productions such as Tatort Köln, SOKO Wismar, WAPO Berlin, as well as commercials for LIDL and Ferrero Rocher.
Following an internship in production and directing, he worked as a 2nd assistant director and set runner for TV productions like WAPO Berlin and Para – Wir sind King. This gave him valuable insight into various aspects of filmmaking, allowing him to navigate set life from multiple perspectives.
In addition to his screen work, Niklas is also an accomplished stage performer. His credits include the lead role of Robbie in Soho Cinders, Young Buddy in Follies (Staatstheater Wiesbaden), as well as productions at the Semperoper Dresden and Stadttheater Klagenfurt. A scholarship took him to the Broadway Dance Center in New York, where he further honed his skills in singing and dance.
With his combined experience in film, television, and theater, Niklas is always eager to take on exciting new projects—whether in TV, cinema, or commercial productions.
