TESTIMONIALS
"..thanks to the luckily cast ensemble around the disarming Katharina Scheuba (more of her, please!) the experiment is a success.."
MICHAEL GRUENWALD - FILM CRITIC
(Filmgenuss) about "DINNER FOR EIGHT"
"But the big star of the movie was Katharina Scheuba. As Sophie, she is not only charismatic but knows exactly how to play with the camera to captivate the audience.
It doesn't matter if she's likeable or bitchy,
she provides stirring moments with her very own drama and that's how we experience her maturing process."
RAPHAEL GASSNER - FILM CRITIC
(@CinemaDiaries4k) about "DINNER FOR EIGHT"
"Katharina Scheuba is a star on the rise.
She is as talented and brilliant as she is beautiful.
She seamlessly embodies every character she plays and brings a fierce intelligence to every role. She creates a mesmerizing screen presence which makes the audience unable to look away.
I look forward to writing for Katharina as I know she is destined for great things!"
BARRY O'BRIEN - EXECUTIVE PRODUCER
(CSI:MIAMI, CASTLE, THE FOLLOWING, TOUCH, GONE, LINCOLN RHYME,
Co-Creator HANNAH MONTANA)
"We chose Katharina to be the lead in our feature film, because
once you see her on screen, something magical happens
and you cannot take your eyes off that screen anymore.
Something very vital for your film, if you want to entertain people for two hours.
Plus, she is a very smart, kind and funny person to work with,
with a wide acting range and a true passion for film-making.
A double jackpot for every director."
BERNHARD RATKA - DIRECTOR (DINNER FÜR ACHT)
"Her warm and loving charm and her razor-sharp mind make Katharina an extraordinary young woman and actress! She conquers her roles with such sensitivity it’s a
true pleasure to watch her.
She’s true, authentic and touching, but also has a
great sense of comedy.
She really has what it takes to make it as an actress!"
JUDITH LIMBERGER - CASTING DIRECTOR (VORSTADTWEIBER)
"Katharina is a very talented and passionate actress.
In her time in New York she immediately became a vibrant and
integral part of our acting community. She is completely bi-lingual and
works well in both the international and American methods.
Katharina is also a medical doctor and I believe she brings
a commitment and discipline to her work rarely found in young artists.
I think her work as a doctor gives her a diversity of perspective
and a necessary empathy which enables her to be an unusual and exciting artist.
I am impressed and moved by the depth and breadth of Katharina’s instrument.
She has great emotional reach and she is able to translate this
into her performances; creating complex and profound characters
that are unique, surprising and moving.
Katharina is willing to face new challenges and dig in and work hard
to develop as an artist. She is powerful and courageous and always ready to explore and be in the moment. She is always ready to perform and participate.
She is a unique and valuable member of any ensemble and
I look forward to working with her on her up-coming movie and future projects."
