German Actress Wanda Perdelwitz, 41, Dies After Hamburg Bicycle Crash

Her management confirmed her death, requesting privacy for the family.

Overview

  • Perdelwitz sustained a severe head injury on September 28 in Hamburg’s Rotherbaum district after reportedly striking a suddenly opened vehicle door.
  • Reports said a Ford Transit stopped to let a passenger exit when the door opened into her path, causing the fall that led to her hospitalization and subsequent death.
  • Her agency issued an official statement confirming her passing and asked media and the public to refrain from further inquiries out of respect for relatives.
  • Police secured her bicycle at the scene, as coverage focused on the incident’s circumstances without an announced investigative conclusion.
  • Known for nine years on ARD’s "Großstadtrevier" and roles in "Tatort," "Soko" series and "Das Traumschiff," she had appeared at the Hamburg Film Festival days earlier and leaves a six-year-old son.
