Zitat:
Spy thriller takes cues from the Edward Snowden saga

Richard Armitage spent many hours polishing his German before filming spy thriller Berlin Station.

Based in New York, the British actor — most famous for his roles in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit trilogy and British drama Spooks — not only wanted to “blend in” with locals but wanted to sound authentic; his character, CIA agent Daniel Miller, spent his childhood years in Berlin.

“I did about 25 hours of German,” he recalls. “Even on my down days I would have to (speak the language). The cafe that I would go to or shops that I would go to, everyone is speaking German so you just absorb it and I’ve learnt to love it.”

Created by Olen Steinhauer, the series has already aired for two seasons in the US and will premiere on SBS this week. Set against the brooding backdrop of Berlin, it revolves around an Edward Snowden-esque story that sees Miller on a clandestine mission to hunt down an internal source at the CIA who has been leaking information to an infamous whistle-blower.

Backed by a stellar cast including Rhys Ifans, Richard Jenkins and, in season two, Ashley Judd and Keke Palmer, Armitage says he was instantly drawn to the series’ relevance to international political affairs.

“The kind of thing that I like to watch is things that I’m interested in and I wanted something that felt really current, and political, and topical, and that’s when I came upon this script, and this show,” he says.

Another drawcard for Armitage was the complex layers of his character, who has his own dark, personal history with Berlin. “I think it’s always interesting when you have a character that has to show a mask or a facade of something in order to do their job and it often is at odds with who they are inside.”

Armitage looked to spy novels and studied the Edward Snowden case for further inspiration. “I also looked at a lot of the NSA and the techniques and mechanisms that are in place for the intelligence agency, which are so much further than people really realise,” he says. “I think that kind of far-reaching probe of intelligence is something that the show really deals with. It’s quite shocking at times but I think it’s not going away. We’re going to be hearing about it a lot more.”

Berlin Station airs today at 10.30pm on SBS. Seasons one and two will be available on SBS On Demand from Thursday.
