Quotes
“At school we watched the Harry Potter film where she plays Hermione and I was like, why is she playing that? I love Hermione! Why can’t I be Hermione? At that time I decided: I’ll do that now too. Then I went to an agency and it all started.”
“I went to the theater for years, watched one play after the other. For me, the theater was a place of longing that remained closed to me for a long time because I thought: you have to be properly trained to be a stage actress.”
“When I heard that there was an audition at the Volksbühne, I just jumped in at the deep end. Very lucky, as it turned out! When I first opened up there, I thought: Oh God, they absolutely have to teach me everything here! I can’t wait to get back on stage.”
“You think bigger on stage. You have what I call a different game fantasy. You have to keep up with your colleagues, otherwise the stage will swallow you up. It broadened my horizon enormously, and that can also be applied to film and series roles.”
“On stage as in film you have to find your own approach to the character. I could offer more for my role as Kleo, I dared more. In the past I might have said during the last take: I have a suggestion. . . For this series, I came straight to the set with ideas. In the theater I learned the joy of trying, searching, finding and sometimes being wrong.”
“Kleo is more of an antihero. She’s too fragile, too flawed, too longing, too loving to be a real villain. Rather, she is inherently radical, but then stumbles again and again over her own courage. You can’t pin good or bad on it. In this respect, she is also not a classic action heroine.”
“When I found out that I was going to be on the VOGUE cover, I almost cried!”
“It was very important to me […] that there would be no such black-and-white depiction and that the West would be portrayed as potentially good and the East as potentially bad.”
“Kleo also has very vulnerable traits, a great longing and sometimes a great deal of childishness. It was precisely this fragility in a person that appealed to me. Her uncompromising attitude is always fueled by an inner hurt and a longing to put herself back together. Betrayed by everything she has and loves, she seeks justice.”
“The world keeps breaking down and the society we live in is not the solution.”
“After such an extremely long time in which I play someone else, I also come with my own emotional balance mixed up. I don’t mean that I suddenly think I’m Kleo, but sometimes I don’t know anymore which emotions belong to me and which ones I’ve just played and haven’t processed yet. That really scares me, but now I know that this is a relatively normal process and that at some point I just have to put the lid on and let my emotions out.”
“You go hiking with a group of people for a week, drink a juice in the morning and a broth in the evening and spend the whole day in nature. This really is the best. You go a lot in silence, peeling off the shell of your soul, so to speak, peeling it off layer by layer.”
“If I wake up and already know how I want to look and what I want to wear, the day is usually good. Then there are days when I have no idea and change my clothes ten times, sometimes 20 times because the clothes don’t convey how I want to feel.”
“I don’t know if I was just very lucky, but I feel like I’ve somehow always played and embodied these characters and never felt a glaring lack of them.”
“I have a lot of strong women around me: two amazing agents, my sister; I have worked with great directors and colleagues. I think we already live the form of feminism. I would like to pass this self-image on to the young girls who watch my films and then no longer have to ask themselves: “Is that actually a strong character?” No, that’s just completely normal.”
“I think you have to dare to be uncomfortable and to demand things, not to be satisfied with simple answers or this “Yes, that’s just how it’s always been”. With a simple “why?” people need explanations or have to take a stand.”
“Now I really understand my job as my identity. I love to play I’m so happy, so gifted, I have such great projects, I can develop and I feel like I’m seen. That is the greatest joy that can be given to me, that I can work the way I do.”
“That would be my greatest wish, to reconcile commerce and art as I have been able to do so far. Whereby the word “commercial” is rated far too negatively anyway – what’s wrong with many people wanting to see something? And I dream of writing and developing myself, that’s already happening in the beginning. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll direct a film that I wrote myself? That would be great.”
Jella Haase is considered a well-experienced actress whom others can look up to. It is proven by a variety of work she has accomplished throughout the years.
