Nenad Lucic, born in 1974 in Lörrach, has lived in Berlin since 1978 — a city that became both his home and his greatest love.

As a child, he discovered his passion for imagination and adventure. Shows like Knight Rider and films such as Ghostbusters and E.T. shaped his early years. On the adventure playground at Körnerpark, he brought his heroes to life — already dreaming of a creative future.

The creative atmosphere of his Neukölln school, early theatre experiences after moving to Schöneberg, and his love of photography shaped his artistic path. At twelve, he received his first camera, learned to work with light and emotion, and developed black-and-white prints in the darkroom — sparking a lifelong fascination.

After training as a cook, working in a skateboard shop, and touring as a roadie, his path led him in front of the camera. From 1994, he appeared in TV series and films before studying media design. From 2008 to 2011, he trained as an actor at the Actorfactory under Johannes Hitzblech, followed by camera-acting courses and Meisner training with Hendrik Martz.

Nenad stands for an acting style that explores boundaries and reveals truth within the character. His goal: for the audience to see the person in the role, not the actor.

That same authenticity defines his photography. With his relaxed, intuitive approach, he captures real personalities rather than poses. Colleagues value his spontaneous energy and the passion reflected in every portrait.
