Bio

Götz Otto is a German actor best known for his role as Mr. Stamper, the villainous assistant to Elliot Carver, in the 1997 James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies.

When called for casting, Otto was famously given 20 seconds to introduce himself. Saying, "I'm big, I'm bad, I'm bald, I'm German. Five seconds, keep the rest", he did it in five.

Otto also played minor roles of epic Nazi films such as the 1993 Steven Spielberg film Schindler's List as an SS guard. He later played the role of SS-Sturmbannführer Otto Günsche in the critically acclaimed 2004 film Downfall, a film that later made him into an internet sensation.

In 2006, he appeared in the UK film Alien Autopsy. His portrayal of Billy the Kid in Bremen in 2011 fulfills a long standing desire to act in the Western genre.

In 2010 he had a starring role as Walter in the historical drama television miniseries The Pillars of the Earth, based on the book of the same name by Ken Follett.

In 2012 he starred in the film Iron Sky as the movie's primary antagonist - Moon Nazi officer Adler, who infiltrates the USA and plots to become Führer of the Moon Nazi colony.
