Jürgen Vogel was born on April 29, 1968, in Hamburg and already started acting as a teenager, for example in Volker Maria Arend's drama "Kinder aus Stein". After finishing secondary school, Vogel enrolled for actor's training at Munich's Schauspielschule but left already after the first day of training. Then, Vogel went to Berlin where he played theatre on an irregular basis and worked in several low-paid jobs. In 1988, he enjoyed his first success with Egon Günther's film "Rosamunde". His performance as a mentally labile kidnapper won him the award as best young actor at the 1990 Bayerischer Filmpreis.
Vogel made his break-through with the subtle portrait of a likeable hedonist in Sönke Wortmann's
"Kleine Haie" (Acting It Out) which won him another Bayerischer
Filmpreis. Since then, Vogel maintained his high profile in the German
movie and TV scene. Vogel played leading parts in Dani Levy's "Stille Nacht" (Silent Night) and Matthias Glasner's
"Sexy Sadie", which was co-produced by Vogel, and inspired moviegoers
and critics alike with his performance as daydreamer Jan Nebel who is
unhappily in love in the X-Filme production "Das Leben ist eine
Baustelle" (Life Is All You Get) by Wolfgang Becker.
Vogel,
who won the Filmband in Gold at the 1997 Deutscher Filmpreis for this
performance, was and still is a very busy actor. Among others, he
played one of the leading parts in Doris Dörrie's tragic comedy "Nackt" (Naked) and, in 2005, made his debut as a singer in "Keine Lieder über Liebe" (No Songs of Love).
