His parents wanted him to be a lawyer, he could earn a lot of money in law. But the native of Ostrava threw himself into acting and struggled with existential problems for years! Filmmakers only discovered him in 2007 for the Chetnické humoresky series, but he had to wait another 7 years for another well-paid TV chance. “It’s not handled like it was in the 90s, when actors who didn’t make series looked down on the others because they were acting about the serious stuff. We played about the serious things, but we took 12,000 crowns clean,” admitted the serial husband of Kristýna Ryška (37) aka Irena in Zlatá labuti.

Personal crisis

That humiliated me terribly. I had the feeling that although I was doing my best in my profession, it was still not enough,” he revealed about himself in an interview for iDnes.cz.
Life-line

The girlfriend has no business

Although he says that she is better, and she is also the holder of a prestigious theater award, she does not have any offers for filming. “I don’t really understand that she’s not seen as much on TV and in film because I think she’s a better actress than me.
