Susanne Wuest grew up close to Vienna, Austria. Right after high school she started working at the prestigious Volkstheater in Vienna. Soon after, she gained international attention with her leading part in "Antares", directed by Götz Spielmann.

After it premiered in competition of Locarno, "Antares" went on to become Austria's submission for Best Foreign Language Academy Award in 2005, as did another film she starred in, in 2015: "Goodnight Mommy" premiered at the Venice Film Festival, won multiple awards and even went on to become a success with US audiences.

Some of the acclaimed directors she has worked with are Klaus Maria Brandauer, Olivier Assayas, Gore Verbinski, Christoph Schrewe, Jessica Hausner, Barbara Albert and very recently, Laszlo Nemes.

Of her fearless and extraordinary portrayals of women, the trade press writes: "You can easily imagine Susanne Wuest as the younger sister of Tilda Swinton: like her, she seems to have no reservations, but rather to have the courage to set tasks for herself that are always new, at times difficult to take on, certainly hard to calculate. What emerges, is, at any rate, exceptional and challenging." (Filmdienst)

  • Quotes
    I think stories about passion are always worth telling. Passion is one of the very few luxuries made for everyone. You can always afford true and deep emotions. Passion makes life very much worth living.
