Farewell to Dr. Niederbühl in "Sturm der Liebe" with Tears

Although he is looking forward to the new chapter in his life, the Viennese Altenkopf left a small backdoor open. "If, of course, millions of fans now cry out and say 'Ah, it can't go on without Dr. Niederbühl,' then I will naturally come back." But first, he wants to focus on his family living in Vienna and music. The farewell from the series was not easy for Altenkopf, as seen in a video by "Bunte." "It breaks my heart," he said tearfully on his last day of filming, as the team bid him farewell. "I will miss you very, very much." Nevertheless, he expressed relief afterward to have put the farewell behind him. "I love the role of Dr. Niederbühl, I loved playing it," Altenkopf concluded. He experienced so many beautiful moments with the viewers of the series. "It was truly a wonderful journey until now."
