Mathias Gnädinger (25 March 1941 – 3 April 2015) was a Swiss stage and film actor. ==Career== Initially a typesetter and typographer, Gnädinger began his acting training at the ''Bühnenstudio Zürich'' (now part of the Zurich University of the Arts) from 1962-66. His first role in Swiss television was in 1968. He starred in ''Leo Sonnyboy'', ''Das Boot ist voll'', ''Journey of Hope'' and the Austrian-German-Swiss co-production ''Kinder der Landstrasse''. Since 1988, he had worked as a freelance actor. Gnädinger starred in about 70 character roles in television and German-language cinema, as well as stage actor in about 130 theater productions,〔 among them at the Burgtheater in Vienna, the Schaubühne in Berlin, and the Schauspielhaus and Theater am Neumarkt in Zürich when latter was established in 1966.〔 The Swiss drama film ''Usfahrt Oerlike'' was released in January 2015, and is the second last film starring Gnädinger alongside Jörg Schneider. According to the film's director Paul Riniker, a sequel was planned, but neither it nor another project focusing on the 74-year-old actor will be realized, as Gnädinger died on 3 April 2015. In Mathias Gnädinger's last film, ''Der grosse Sommer'', directed by Stefan Jäger, he plays ''Anton Sommer'', a former Swiss wrestling champion in the footsteps of a Sumo wrestler in Japan. The production works in Japan were documented by 10vor10, and Gnädiger was absolutely fascinated by the old Japanese tradition, and his ten years old co-star Loïc Sho of Swiss-Japanese origin. Gnädinger said he got in touch with Swiss wrestling only once, as a boy. Ursula Gnädinger assisted her husband at the production works as make-up artist. The comedy is scheduled for release in the second half of 2015.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mathias Gnädinger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
