In dieser reich illustrierten Biografie wird der Aufstieg Michael Fassbenders vom Tellerwäscher im irischen Killarney bis zu einem der gefragtesten Darsteller in Hollywood geschildert. Autor Jim Maloney erzählt, wie ein Zettel am Schwarzen Brett in der Schule ihn eher zufällig zur Schauspielerei brachte, wie er 2001 mit Steven Spielbergs Serie BAND OF BROTHERS einen ersten Hauch Hollywoodluft schnuppern konnte, danach allerdings einige Jahre am Hungertuch nagen musste, bis er 2008 endlich den Durchbruch schaffte. Der Autor gibt Einblicke in das Privatleben des zurückhaltenden Stars und beleuchtet seine außergewöhnliche Arbeitsweise als Method Actor, durch die er schon mit Größen wie Marlon Brando, Robert De Niro und Al Pacino verglichen worden ist. Zudem werden wichtige Wegbegleiter und Mentoren vorgestellt, die ihn privat und als Künstler beeinflusst haben. Zahlreiche O-Töne und Fotos dokumentieren den faszinierenden Weg Fassbenders. Ein wahres Lesevergnügen für Fans des bodenständigen Schauspielers!

The Ghostwriters must try to revive ideas and get their message out whilst pitted against a system that shuts down thought and learning. After the break-up of the United Kingdom, war in Europe, starvation, and pandemic, the Capital is a society under siege. People just manage to survive on rations and scraps that they thieve.

"His chiseled yet rugged good looks and masculinity set him apart from the "pretty boy" actors, making him popular with both men and women. His intriguing mix of Irish and German roots has infused him with an easygoing charm combined with a steely confidence and determination to succeed. Michael Fassbender doesn't just act, he becomes the people he is portraying in a type of method acting that has seen him likened to Marlon Brando and Robert De Niro, both of whom were his childhood heroes. He is also an actor with remarkable versatility. In his breakthrough movie Hunger, he went on a strict diet to lose weight in order to play IRA hunger striker Bobby Sands. In contrast he portrayed an English army officer in the rollicking World War II adventure Inglorious Basterds; the comic book villain Magneto in X-Men: First Class, and psychiatrist Carl Jung in A Dangerous Method. He shamelessly bared all as a sex addict in Shame and got moody and broody as a chilling hired killer in the action thriller Haywire. In this eagerly awaited biography, Jim Maloney tells his remarkable rise to fame from Heidelberg in southwest Germany, to Killarney in Ireland, on to London and Hollywood. Read how he thought he was Superman, why he dropped out of drama school, his brief attempt to become a heavy metal rock star, and the piece of paper pinned to his school notice board that was to change his life forever."--Publisher description
