In an exciting development, German actor Kammerer has revealed that he has already started training for his upcoming role in the WWII-era tennis biopic "Break." The film, directed by Daniel Brühl, is set to debut in 2026 and will tell the story of real-life German tennis champion Gottfried von Cramm.

Von Cramm's sporting career rose to prominence in the 1930s, but he found himself in the crosshairs of the Nazi regime as his star continued to shine. "Break" will follow von Cramm's breathtaking journey, navigating the political and personal complexities of the time, including a high-stakes love triangle that threatened his very life.

Kammerer, who has never played tennis before, admitted that he has a lot of work ahead of him to prepare for the role. "I have started training for that, just occasionally, but I will start training really hard about January, for let's say, seven, eight months, just playing tennis all day, all week," he shared. The actor is determined to do justice to von Cramm's story, noting that the film will reunite the same talented team behind the acclaimed 2022 film "All Quiet on the Western Front."
