Daniel Brühl Facts

Born in Barcelona, Spain, Daniel’s family had moved to Cologne, Germany, shortly after his birth. He had revealed in an interview that his birth had taken place in Spain instead of Germany because his Spanish mother did not trust German hospitals at all. He would often spend his childhood summer vacations in Barcelona.

For his portrayal of the character of Alexander Kerner in the 2003 German tragicomedy film Good Bye, Lenin!, he had won the ‘Best Actor’ award at both the European Film Awards and the German Film Awards.

In his youth, he used to perform as the lead singer of a band called Purge.

A polyglot, he is fluent in multiple European languages including English, German, Spanish, French, and Portuguese. He also understands Catalan.

In 2011, he had co-launched a tapas (Spanish appetizers/snacks) bar called Bar Raval in the Kreuzberg, Berlin. Between February and October 2017, he had co-owned a similar outlet called Bar Gracia, named after Barcelona’s nightlife district of Gràcia, in Prenzlauer Berg, Berlin. It had to be closed down as it did not turn out to be as successful as expected.
