Do we really need the same photo twice in this article? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.159.48.65 (talk) 22:24, 17 February 2009 (UTC)

I didn't think so either, so I deleted the second one. Matricuria (talk) 18:24, 9 March 2009 (UTC)

does he really speak catalan?
if you watch this interview on Cataln TV you'll see that he understands catalan, as, I believe many castellano speakers do. But he had a really great oppurtunity to speak it here, and he sticks to Spanish the whole time. So, does he really speak it? I kinda doubt it. skakEL 14:09, 1 October 2017 (UTC)


 * Well, the existing source for the claim actually says he "... grew up speaking Spanish, German, Catalan.." I guess that's not really quite the same as speaking it now is it? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:51, 1 October 2017 (UTC)


 * He said in an interview with 'news.de' that he can barely speak Catalan and that he was embarrassed, when people in Barcelona spoke to him in Catalan (which he understands very well), he had to respond in Spanish. Fulcher (talk) 01:12, 15 December 2017 (UTC)


 * cool. I changed it to say "understands Catalan". This is very common to Catalanoparlants in Espanya to be understood but gets responses back in Spanish. skakEL 09:56, 6 February 2018 (UTC)


 * I've added that interview report, from 'news.de', as a source. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:53, 6 February 2018 (UTC)

Date of birth
de:Daniel Brühl lists 16 June 1978 as Brühl's DOB, and cites Munzinger-Archiv as the source. If this is not reliable, please let me know, either by Template:ping or on my talk page. Thanks. Grayfell (talk) 23:58, 11 March 2019 (UTC)

Proposal to change his identity to Spanish-German
I don't see any discussion of his nationality, just a note in the article not to change it from German. He was born in Spain to a Spanish mother and German father, and he has dual citizenship. He divides his time between Barcelona and Berlin so he's not a resident of one or the other. He says he grew up between two cultures but he does not identify as German, Spanish or Catalan but merely European. I don't see why he should be emphasized as German when he is just as Spanish. It's not like he has four citizenships or something unruly - a dual national is perfectly acceptable in a lede. —МандичкаYO 😜 05:09, 15 January 2020 (UTC)

User:Wikimandia A minor detail, but I think it would make more sense to describe him as being "German-Spanish" first as opposed to "Spanish-German". He grew up in Germany, having moved there shortly after his birth, began his acting career in Germany and a lot of his credits are German productions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Clear Looking Glass (talk • contribs) 03:23, 27 August 2020 (UTC)

Last name
The last name of his mother is González Domingo. He would only take his mother's father's last name González as part of his last name. See also his name in the spanish and german article. --Anton Sachs (talk) 09:30, 16 June 2020 (UTC)

Expanding the article
I have been spending considerable time expanding this article. Please do not revert without reason. Pandacat21 (talk) 11:02, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, it doesn't look like "possible vandalism" to me. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:04, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Perhaps User:‎Ram Dhaneesh could explain the rationale? The last revert here has no explanation in the edit summary? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 11:16, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Sorry for my mistake, by misunderstood it's happened, really felt sorry for my mistake. I got confused with another article. I felt sorry again. Dhaneesh  💙  Ram  15:01, 25 August 2021 (UTC)


 * Ohh if that's the case it's alright :) Pandacat21 (talk) 19:03, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for explaining, Ram Dhaneesh. Martinevans123 (talk) 20:19, 25 August 2021 (UTC)
