Overview
- Eleven years after his last feature, Christoph Maria Herbst is back as Bernd Stromberg in "Stromberg – Wieder alles wie immer," built around a televised reunion of the old Capitol-Versicherung crew.
- The film drew 217,067 cinema-goers at launch in Germany, according to BILD's box-office tally.
- A left-leaning review in junge Welt calls the screenplay unexpectedly clever and reads it as a critique of shifting workplace norms and generational friction.
- The original ensemble, including Bjarne Mädel, Oliver Wnuk and Diana Staehly, reunites with the action staged in a TV studio rather than the old office setting.
- In promotional interviews, Herbst told Gala—reported by Promiflash and HNA—that he and his wife avoid going to bed angry and once used a "Vorhang auf" code word to navigate kissing around role-related facial hair.
