Person profile
Personal context
Jannik Schümann is a German actor known for Die Mitte der Welt, Charité, and Sisi, with roles in contemporary dramas and historical productions. Since publicly coming out as gay in 2020, he has joined the #ActOut campaign for queer visibility and recognition, spoken at a Bundestag Holocaust remembrance event about the persecution of gay men, and repeatedly advocated for queer rights and fewer stereotypes in German film. He has described visibility as a responsibility and called for more authentic queer stories. His public advocacy centers on LGBTQ+ rights; no comparable public record of party campaigning or race-focused activism is on record.
