An Austrian-born actor with a set of expressive, attention-grabbing
eyes, Erwin Leder is perhaps best known among European cinema and
television. He was born in St. Polten, Lower Austria, Austria on July
30, 1951 and possesses a well-sized acting career spanning over 30
years. He began his career in 1975, with many of his works being in
foreign films. His more notable performances have been associated with
movies such as the 1981 film Das Boot wherein he portrayed a World War
II U-Boat crewman obsessed with the U96's engines. Erwin also appeared
as a peasant in the opening minutes of the Disney action-adventure film
The Three Musketeers (1993). That same year he also appeared in
Schindler's List (1993). Ten years later he would appear in another
high-profile movie with his role as the Lycan geneticist Singe in
Underworld (2003).
