Television - TV-Star Muriel Baumeister plays the role of a chief doctor with a caring heart
Emotional contrast to the script: For actress Muriel Baumeister ("In aller Freundschaft"), her role in the new Sat.1 prime-time series "Die Spreewaldklinik" (from August 29) has a particular appeal. "Who knows me privately, knows that I am completely emotional, living very much from my intuition," Baumeister (52) explained at a press event in Hamburg. And she added: "The character I play, Dr. Barbara Berg, is the exact opposite. She deals completely rationally and controlled. With empathy, she doesn't have it." However, the doctor can occasionally show some heart, which is revealed in the course of the 80 episodes. Produced by the ndF company.
Baumeister is actually very emotional in real life
Playing against her own character brings her a lot of fun, Baumeister stated during the presentation of the ProSiebenSat.1 Media program 2024/25 in the Hanseatic city. In "Die Spreewaldklinik," the Austrian-German artist appears as the counterpart to her colleague Sina-Valeska Jung ("Alles was zählt") as Dr. Lea Wolff. She doesn't just come to the Spreewald to find professional fulfillment. But also, to find her daughter whom she had to give up for adoption as a teenager 20 years ago.
Further actors are Karsten Speck ("Stasi-Komödie") as Chief Resident Dr. Gregor Wemuth, as well as Isabel Hinz and Daniel Buder. According to the script by Mauel Meimberg, various changing directors are responsible for the direction.
