Florian Brückner stars in crime comedy Jennerwein

Actor Florian Brückner, known for his role as Meister Eder in the Pumuckl series, is transitioning genres to star as a detective in the crime comedy Jennerwein. The film marks a significant family collaboration, as his brother, actor Maximilian Brückner, co-wrote the screenplay based on the crime bestsellers by Jörg Maurer.

In addition to the sibling connection, the production reunites Brückner with Frederic Linkemann, who played his best friend Michi in Pumuckl. In Jennerwein, the two actors portray opposing characters, with Linkemann playing the cumbersome Inspector Ludwig Stengel. Brückner noted that the familial atmosphere during production facilitated a smooth creative process and allowed for direct collaboration with his brother on the script.
