Alexander Weiß Attore

Alexander Weiß wurde 1977 in Hannover als Sohn eines Gymnasial-Lehrers geboren. Er ist Mitbegründer des Dramatischen Ensemble e.V. in seiner Heimatstadt Nördlingen, das sich 1989 aus einer Ministrantenspielgruppe herausbildete und bis heute Bestand hat. Somit steht LEUKOS, wie sein Künstlername lautet, seit seinem zehnten Lebensjahr auf der Bühne. Von 2006 bis 2010 besuchte er die Schauspielakademie Arte in München bei deren Intendant Michael Schmucker; sein klassisches Schauspielstudium schloß er mit Diplom als Jahrgangsbester ab.
Bereits während seines Studiums sammelte LEUKOS Erfahrungen in Regie und Produktion; seinen ersten Kurzfilm „Ophthalmoi“ inszenierte er bereits 2004. 2008 setzte er „DADADEDE“ in Szene. 2011 stand er in der Rolle des Günther in Aron Lehmanns „Kohlhaas oder die Verhältnismäßigkeit der Mittel“, der 2013 den Max-Ophyls-Preis gewann, vor der Kamera. Seit 2012 arbeitet er an diversen freien Theaterprojekten. Zudem ist LEUKOS seit 2013 als freier Dozent für klassisches Schauspiel am Albrecht-Ernst-Gymnasium in Oettingen tätig.
Im September 2014 setzte er in Kooperation mit dem DE im Rahmen der Nördlinger Kulturnacht die avantgardistische Performance „NÖRDLINGENS teleVISIONEN“ in Szene. Außerdem produzierte er "krisensitzung", ein experimenteller Spielfilm, führte dabei Regie und stand gleichzeitig als Hauptdarsteller vor der Kamera.

Während der Corona-Zeit setzte sich LEUKOS intensiv mit dem Selbstfilmen auseinander und ist nun in der Lage, sein gesamtes Demomaterial in Bild und Ton in professioneller Qualität selbst zu produzieren. Darüberhinaus sind sogar eigene Kurz- und Spielfilme sowie Hörspiele in Planung.

2023 gab LEUKOS sein Debut als Musical-Darsteller in „Der kleine Horrorladen“ unter der Regie von Clarissa Bühler in seiner Heimatstadt Nördlingen als Orin Scrivello.
