Robert Merrill's transition from top model to actor may seem quite
natural, but the path he took to get here was anything but traditional.
Recognizable to some as the square-jawed Gillette man, or from numerous
designer campaigns including Ralph Lauren and Armani, Merrill began his
professional career as a corporate and tax attorney upon graduating
with a law degree from University of Florida where he also shined as a
pitcher for the Gator baseball team. After a couple of years, his
interest in law waned, which lead him to modeling and commercial work
in New York and worldwide. His successful run culminated with his role
as the hunky window-washing Diet Coke guy, which garnered him an honor
for "Best Actor in an Advertisement" from the British National
Television Awards. The accolades in England eventually drew Merrill to
London where he studied Shakespeare at the Royal Academy of Dramatic
Arts. Classically trained and eager to embark on an acting career,
Merrill headed to Los Angeles where he landed a succession of
television roles including
Charmed (1998),
Just Shoot Me! (1997),
Grounded for Life (2001),
and The Job (2001), which paired
him with Elizabeth Hurley as
his girlfriend. He also just wrapped a guest spot on the mid-season
drama Century City (2004).
Merrill most recently completed production on the dramatic film
No Regrets (2004) with
Janine Turner as his wife, and
Brad Johnson and
Kate Jackson co-starring.
Additional feature credits include his debut in the drama
Against All Evidence (2002), a
comedic turn in Spanish Fly (2002),
and the shorts Infamy (2004), and
festival-circuit thriller short Ice Water with
William Baldwin and
Kimberly Williams-Paisley.- Actor

Born in Munich in 1969, Gedeon was raised bilingual (English & German).
He was sent to boarding school in England at the age of 8 and
transferred to American high school at the age of 12. Gedeon starred in
his first movie (Aunt Maria) when he was 10, his second lead role followed one year
later in the American / German co-production Blood and Honor (3 part
mini series) as Hartmut Keller. By demand of the American
and German Producers each scene was shot once in English and once in
German, due to his bilingual upbringing, Gedeon was the only actor who
did not have to be dubbed in either version.
Gedeon continuously worked in various projects during school vacations
until he dropped out of high school after 11th grade. At this time he
concentrated on training for 2 years, attending musical school and
taking speech and acting classes on the side.
In 1988 Gedeon starred, next to Tony Curtis and Birol Head On by Fathi
Akin), in the motion Picture Welcome to Germany which marked the
beginning of his career as a grownup. Since then Gedeon has acted in
numerous films, including Acting it Out (German film award/ Movie and
Bavarian Film award/Actor) by acclaimed German director Wortman,
Silence like Glass by Carl Schenkel and Making Up (Student Academy
Award USA/German Film Award) by Katja von Garnier. He also starred in
the internationally successful television series Detectiv Rex (sold to
over 140 territories) and Kobra 11 (Action series, sold to over 120
territories).
in 2006 Gedeon portrayed Henry Neumann, a Jewish boxer trapped in a
boxcar with his family on the way to Auschwitz, in the motion picture
The last Train. This challenging part, it seems, was the perfect
preparation for the biggest opportunity in his career to date, the part
of the Jewish Basterd (Will Wicky) in Quentin Tarantino's new movie
Inglorious Basterds.- Actress
