Year of Til Schweiger had "small kink"

In Steffen Hallaschka's review of the year - Year of Til Schweiger had "small kink"

"2023 - a year that made headlines from second one." A first moving review of the past twelve months took place on RTL on Thursday evening. Steffen Hallaschka (51) welcomed prominent guests to "2023! Menschen, Bilder, Emotionen" welcomed prominent guests such as reality TV star Evelyn Burdecki (35), TV chef Tim Mälzer (52), drag queen Olivia Jones (54), FDP politician Marie-Agnes Strack-Zimmermann (65), The Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger (54) and actor Til Schweiger (59). Speaking of headlines... In Hallaschka's studio, Schweiger commented live on television for the first time on the allegations surrounding the filming of "Manta Manta - Zwoter Teil".

Til Schweiger's year had "a little kink"

"This year started bombastically and then had a bit of a kink," said the actor, looking back on 2023. Serious allegations were made against Schweiger in the spring. In a report in Der Spiegel, he was accused of abusing power and alcohol on the set of "Manta Manta". Initially, Schweiger "didn't take it seriously at all", as he explained to Hallaschka. "I've never been domineering, I've never abused my power," he clarified.

However, Schweiger also admitted that he had "sometimes used the wrong tone". He has always filmed with the same people for many years, but this time there were many new people on set. "I had arguments with some of them because I wasn't happy with their work." But he never wanted to "hurt anyone in particular".

He has already apologized for the slap he gave a co-worker after he refused to let the actor on set because he was very drunk "and he accepted my apology". Schweiger had "lost control" and could no longer really remember the incident himself. His summary of the year 2023 was therefore unsurprising: "What I have taken with me is that I no longer want to lose control."

What Olivia Jones and Tim Mälzer say about Schweiger's alcohol consumption

Olivia Jones immediately responded to Schweiger's statement after his brief guest appearance. "I don't think you can let it go as far as Til did." As a restaurateur, she knows the wrong dosage of alcohol. "The dose is the poison."

Tim Mälzer has not drunk alcohol for ten months. His consumption had become too much for him. He currently likes to leave the bottle at home. However, he can "understand" Schweiger's behavior: When you're "under so much pressure because of a project, you need an outlet at some point".

Evelyn Burdecki on Pocher break-up: "Hoped for a happy ending"

Having reached the month of September, Hallaschka also addressed the separation of Oliver Pocher (45) and Amira Pocher (31). His gaze promptly wandered to Evelyn Burdecki, who is known to be a close friend of the ex-couple. "I'm good with both of them, I've comforted them both. I was actually hoping for a happy ending. But you shouldn't interfere with that," she revealed. Burdecki added that it "no longer looks" like a happy ending.

Mick Jagger finds artificial intelligence "quite fun"

This year's edition of RTL's annual review ended with an entertaining interview with Mick Jagger (80). The singer and his band The Rolling Stones released their 24th studio album "Hackney Diamonds" in October. It is the Rolling Stones' first studio album with new songs since "A Bigger Bang", which was released around 18 years ago. Although Jagger has been in the music business for decades, he still felt "pressure": "Of course you wonder if people will like your music. I like my music, but will the fans like it?"

But the 80-year-old has already been able to breathe a sigh of relief: "Hackney Diamonds" is the most successful record of 2023 in Germany so far. With this wave of success, it's no wonder that the Rolling Stones are already working on another album. Jagger cannot yet reveal when this will be released. "We've only just started. But it won't take another 18 years."

Last but not least, there was a little chat about artificial intelligence and its controversial use in show business. "I think it's actually quite fun," said Jagger. "I was experimenting with someone else's voice the other day. [...] It was a famous English singer." Even at the proud age of 80, the Brit is always open to new things: "You should always be looking for new challenges."
