Production of the series did not make any special demands in the selection of the main actors. The first and only was the four-legged commissar Rex. Actors almost immediately were approved for their roles, but the dog was played by several pets, who had passed the training course.
The first screen host Rex was Richard Moser. For four seasons together, they uncovered a multitude of crimes, got closer and found a common language. Austrian Tobias Moretti began his acting career long before Rex, but it was this series that brought him world fame. In 1998, he starred in the film adaptation of the same name drama "Clarissa". In the filmography of the actor a huge number of television works. Other hobbies Moretti considers music, various sports and cooking. He is the author of his own recipes, won love among housewives. Tobias also plays theater plays, is fond of farming, has a livestock base. In 2014 he starred in the western "Dark Valley".
"Commissioner Rex": actors of new characters
Unfortunately, in the fourth season Moser dies at the hands of a maniac. The department receives Alex Brandtner. With him, Rex has to make contact. According to the recognition of German actor Gedeon Burkhard, he succeeded.
Gideon acted as the face of clothing companies, he appeared in advertising a lot, was called a sex symbol and the most desired man. And even took steps in Hollywood - in 2009 he starred in a small role in the military tape "Inglourious Basterds." Among his other works - the comedy "The Seducer 2" and the youth drama "Yu."
After the departure of Burkhard, the changes in the series "Commissioner Rex" began. The actors of the successful show, which was on top of popularity, changed one after another. Fortunately, this did not affect the rating of the project, and many viewers noted that with the new characters the series gets a new breath.
Mark Hoffman, the next owner of Rex, was played by Alexander Psill, a native of Austria. He started acting in films at the age of 20. However, the track record of film works is not so rich as the role in the theater. For "Commissioner Rex" Pshill was awarded the prize Romy as the best actor.
New "Commissioner Rex": actors and roles
In 2004, the series was temporarily suspended. The resumption of the show began in 2008 with a new season. The action was moved to Italy.
Lorenzo Fabbri becomes the new owner of Rex. Kaspar Kapparoni, who played it, was selected for the role, in part because he himself was a native of Italy.
Actors of the series "Commissioner Rex" changed simultaneously with the replacement of a four-legged detective, whose role was played by other dogs of the same breed. In the newest history of the series, the hosts of the shepherd are David Rivera and Marco Tertsani (actors Ettore Bassi and Francesco Arca).
All of them are distinguished by the fact that there is a coolness between them and Rex first, and later they become partners. Definitely, this is the merit of Rex himself.
The success of the series brought popularity to the German Shepherd breed, which is associated with the character of the cult series. The project is considered one of the most successful in the history of German-Austrian television. The actors of the film "Commissioner Rex" received wide recognition, which positively affected the further professional activity.
