Thomas Fritsch (16 January 1944 – 21 April 2021) was a German film, television and dubbing actor and schlager singer. He was regarded as the "Sonnyboy"[a] in the German cinema of the 1960s,[2] and became one of the best-known actors by his presence in television series.[2] Later, he was the German voice of Russell Crowe , of Scar in The Lion King , and of Diego, a Smilodon , in Ice Age .
Fritsch was born in Dresden , the son of famous actor Willy Fritsch and dancer Dinah Grace [de ] .[2] The family moved to Hamburg after World War II.[3] Director and actor Gustaf Gründgens encouraged the 16-year-old Thomas to become an actor.[2] He trained at an acting school in Hamburg-Pöseldorf for three years.[4]
He played his first film role in the 1962 Austrian Julia, Du bist zauberhaft at age 17,[2] alongside Lilli Palmer . He starred opposite Daliah Lavi in Das schwarz-weiß-rote Himmelbett [de ] , and became a favourite of teenagers.[2] He was frequently featured as the cover image of the Bravo youth magazine.[4] He played in And So to Bed [de ] in 1963, alongside Hildegard Knef .[3] In 1964, he appeared in his only film together with his father, Das hab ich von Papa gelernt .[4] He played two more times with his father, in ZDF television shows, Das gibts doch zweimal in 1965, and Andere Zeiten, andere Sitten. Die Thomas-Fritsch-Show in 1967.[3] He had film roles in Drei Männer in Santa Cruz , Onkel Toms Hütte , and played one of the three men in the title of Drei Männer im Schnee , among many others.[5]
In the 1970s, Fritsch appeared in the television series Der Kommissar and Derrick several times. From 1977, Fritsch appeared in a leading role in the popular series Drei sind einer zuviel [de ] (Three are one too many) by Barbara Noack , portraying a man in a love triangle story. It made him one of Germany's most popular actors.[3] He also starred in the television series Rivalen der Rennbahn (1989).[2] In 2004, he made a return to cinema when he appeared as the villainous Earl of Cockwood in Der Wixxer , a comedy which spoofed the German Edgar Wallace films of the 1960s.[6]
Fritsch became known as a voice actor. He was the German voice of Russell Crowe in Gladiator , Master and Commander: The Far Side of the World and Proof of Life .[4] He starred voicing Scar in the German version of The Lion King in 1994,[7] and voiced many other animated lions as well, and Diego, a Smilodon , in Ice Age and sequels, beginning in 2002.[2] [5] In the 2000s, he replaced the late Joachim Kemmer as Lumiere for the "Human Again" DVD feature of Beauty and the Beast .[2] His last role was the narrator in the 2018 children's film Jim Knopf und Lukas der Lokomotivführer [de ] , an adaption of Michael Ende 's Jim Button and Luke the Engine Driver .[5]
Private life and death [ edit ]
Fritsch divided his time between his home in Munich and his home on the Greek island of Mykonos . He had been diagnosed with a brain tumour in 1990.[8] In 2006, Fritsch revealed he was bisexual.[9] In 2019, it was announced that Fritsch was diagnosed with dementia and was living in an assisted living facility.[10]
