Children on TV? Max von Thun personally doesn’t think so. He decides against a TV career for his son for the time being.
TV star has a clear opinion
“I don’t think it’s an environment that’s particularly good for children,” says the actor. The son of acting legend Friedrich von Thun (81) continues: “There are 40 grown people who do everything to keep a child happy.” In addition, Leo (10) is creative, but the star’s son doesn’t yet have a clear idea of his future. However, acting is not out of the question.
Father-son duo invent stories together
Nevertheless, father and son are already working together: after all, the ten-year-old is co-author of the children’s book “The Star Man”. Of course, Leo appears there under a synonym. The whole thing came about during the Corona period in 2020: “When many colleagues in my industry were complaining, we recorded these stories as a radio play in my home studio. We did something meaningful and were completely without pressure.”
