While this new chapter in his life has been incredibly enriching, it hasn’t exactly made things easier, as he humorously admits.
In his latest comedy film “Der Vierer”, which premiered on November 28th, Florian David Fitz explores themes of courage and the willingness to try new things. During an interview with Gala-Moderator Annika Lau, known for her work on “Doctor’s Diary,” Florian was asked about his level of courage in his personal life. He shared, “I am somewhat overly cautious in some ways, but not at all in others.” Making the decision to become a father in his mid-40s did require a certain amount of courage, he admitted. “Now I would say, it didn’t require courage, but looking back, there were moments… where I was really scared, if I may say so,” he revealed. However, he emphasized that those feelings were fleeting. “The beautiful thing is that it all goes away the moment it becomes reality.” Suddenly, you have a whole new set of responsibilities to focus on. “Then, the meaning of being ‘scared’ changes,” he added with a laugh.
