Some are happy about chocolate, others about a book – Til Schweiger is happy about a manta ray. The actor published a clip on Instagram in which he, in his undershirt, celebrated the reunion with an Opel Manta in his driveway. No coincidence: A sequel to the 90s cult film “Manta, Manta” with Schweiger in the leading role is planned.
“Yes, baby” calls the visibly good-humoured 58-year-old in the short video clip. Below it you can read: “My baby is back!!!” and three red hearts. Incidentally, the brightly painted car has the license plate number “HA – B 123”, just like in the original Ruhr area comedy.
family production
In addition to Schweiger, his daughters Emma and Luna should also be seen in front of the camera. Til directs behind the camera himself. There will also be a reunion with the actors from the original film. In addition to Michael Kessler, Martin Armknecht and Tina Ruland are also there. In mid-June she posted a picture just before the reading rehearsal with the words: “We said yes! Bake. Finally. I can’t tell you how happy I am.”
Til Schweiger celebrated his cinema breakthrough in 1991 with “Manta, Manta”. He played the role of PS chav Bertie, who had enormous difficulties reconciling the love of his car and his girlfriend Uschi (Tina Ruhland). The comedy quickly became a cult. The sequel could hit theaters as early as 2023.
