Tattoo model Fabien Tietjen stars in the ARD two-parter

3.5 million followers on Tiktok, 635,000 on Instagram: 28-year-old Fabien Tietjen from near Bremen has been staging his tattoos on social media with great success. From Friday, the tattoo model can also be seen as an actor on television. He plays a firefighter in the ARD series “Feuerwehrfrauen”. He was able to put himself into the role well due to his own professional past: Tietjen worked for a factory fire department of a Bremen company for three and a half years before devoting himself entirely to his career as an influencer. The character of his character Olli Meyer is also similar to his own, says Tietjen: “Very tough on the outside, very emotional, empathetic and down-to-earth on the inside.” Filming was “super relaxed” for him.

The ARD series starts on Friday, September 13th at 8:15 p.m. with the first film “Phoenix from the Ashes”. The second film “Heim gesucht” follows on Friday, September 20th at 8:15 p.m. The roles are played by Nadja Becker and Katja Danowski.
