Finally he also appeared on stage in the Russia metropolises St. Petersburg and Moscow for a while. When he returned to Germany he managed his path till to the German theater center in Berlin. In Berlin he soon got in touch with the new arising film business and he appeared already in "Schuld und Sühne" in front of the camera for the first time. From 1915 his activities in film continued to expand and his mostly formidable roles entertained large audiences. In 1920 he acted in his last films, he then acted again in the theater before he died in 1922 at the age of only 57.
