Daniel Brühl On The Time He Swerved A Karl Lagerfeld Cover Shoot & Becoming A “Fearless” Actor


Daniel Brühl has talked playing Karl Lagerfeld for Disney+ before Canneseries premiere, and becoming a "fearless" actor.

Daniel Brühl has recalled the time he swerved a Karl Lagerfeld photo shoot two decades before playing him in the eponymous Disney+ series that airs out of competition at tonight’s Canneseries. Speaking to Deadline on the day of the Becoming Karl Lagerfeld premiere, the German-Spanish actor detailed how he was taking part in a photo shoot at the Berlinale right after announcing himself on the world stage with his critically-acclaimed performance in Wolfgang Becker’s Good Bye, Lenin!. While he meets and falls in love with the sultry Jacques de Bascher (Théodore Pellerin), an ambitious and troubling young dandy, the most mysterious of fashion designers dares to take on friend and rival Yves Saint Laurent (Arnaud Valois), a genius of haute couture backed by the redoubtable businessman Pierre Bergé (Alex Lutz).
