In “Tatort: Cash” Rick Okon was seen for the last time as Inspector Jan Pawlak. These are his plans for the near future.
For now, however, the actor seems quite happy with his decision to say goodbye to the role of Jan Pawlak and clear the way for new projects. Like him reported in an interview with “Ruhr24”., his fellow actors and the production team gave him a wonderful farewell after the last day of filming: “We had a very nice final party and it was really sweet that the production or our editor Dora, who also edited “Cash” and many other “crime scenes”. organized a compilation. She made a really nice ten, twelve minute compilation of my character over the years.” For the party, the colleagues rented the bar again, where a beer-filled, conciliatory meeting between inspectors Faber, Herzog and Pawlak was previously filmed for “Tatort: Cash”.
Farewell to a “fantastic partner in crime”
After his departure from the Dortmund investigative team, he will at least remain in contact with his colleague Stefanie Reinsperger, with whom he is also a close personal friend. In one Statement to WDR She summarized this in the following emotional words: “Rosa Herzog is losing a fantastic partner in crime. But I, as Stefanie Reinsperger, have found a friend for life. I appreciate Rick so much as a colleague, as an actor, but the most beautiful thing about this encounter is our wonderful friendship that has developed over the years.”
In conversation with “The West” Okon revealed that he would take things a little easier in the near future. The last big thing he filmed last year was a vampire series for ZDFneo called “Love Sucks,” which will be released this year. “It was a lot of fun because I’ve never played a character like this with such character traits before. A great project – from the special effects to the make-up to the costumes,” said the actor.
Hunt for new inspiration in the cinema hall
In the “Berliner Morgenpost” He revealed what he is currently doing with his newfound freedom and free time: “I’m really happy right now that I’m seeing a lot of friends in Berlin, because I didn’t have a normal everyday life for many years and was constantly traveling for work. Plus, I “I bought an unlimited card for the cinema, with which I can now watch unlimited films for a year. I’m trying to collect input to get inspired.”
