Filip Schnack

Filip Schnack’s kinda everywhere right now, honestly. The dude landed front and center in Netflix’s latest sci-fi drama, Cassandra, and it’s not just quietly sitting in the “new releases” row—nah, it’s blowing up. We’re talking No. 1 in 32 countries, which is just wild. Critics are eating it up, too; Forbes is calling it Netflix’s best new sci-fi show, and Rotten Tomatoes slapped a perfect 100% critic score on it. Shows don’t usually get that kind of love, so something’s clearly working. But Schnack isn’t just hanging out in streaming land. He’s also popping up on the big screen as Skinny Norris, the baddie in a new German kids’ adventure flick. This isn’t some random movie, either—it’s part of a franchise that’s got a serious fanbase over in Germany. So, he gets to be the guy everyone loves to hate, which, let’s be real, is always a fun gig. And if that wasn’t enough, 2023 saw him grabbing a lead role in The Roots of Evil, an RTL+ production that hit Filmfest Hamburg. He’s not carrying it alone, either—Fahri Yardim and Henriette Confurius are right there with him. It’s a solid cast, and people are paying attention. Schnack’s schedule must be wild, but he’s making a case for being one of those names you won’t be able to ignore much longer.
