Russian actor (born 1995)
German Sergeyevich Segal (Russian: Герман Сергеевич Сегал, romanized: German Sergeyevich Segal; born 7 June 1995) is a Russian stage and screen actor based in London.[4]
He gained international notice for playing hacker Vadim Trusov in the Channel 4 series The Undeclared War (2022),[5][6][7][8] and for portraying diplomat Henry Olisleger in the BBC / PBS miniseries Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light (2024).[9][10]
Early life and training
[edit]
Segal was born in Izhevsk to a family of educators and lawyers.[4]
He finished the acting course at the Moscow Art Theatre School in 2018,[1] and earned an MA in Acting for Screen with Distinction from the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama in 2023.[2]
In London, he became active in the Forum of Russian-speaking Actors.[11][12]
Segal’s feature-film debut was the WWII drama The Red Ghost (2020).
His English-language breakthrough came as Vadim Trusov in Peter Kosminsky’s cyber-thriller The Undeclared War,[5][6][8] whose story has been described by The Sydney Morning Herald as “alarmingly close to real-world events”.[7] Sobaka.ru listed it among August 2022’s must-see shows.[13][14]
A second season, to be directed by Paul McGuigan, is in development.[15]
In 2024, Segal reunited with Kosminsky to play the German ambassador Henry Olisleger opposite Henry VIII in Wolf Hall: The Mirror and the Light.[9][10]
German’s short film Covening went on to win Best Dark Comedy nomination at the New York International Film Awards for October 2024.[16]
