<\/p>\n

Press Release:<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Meet Rudy (played by the charming Nico Liersche) in the very endearing \u201cThe Book Thief,\u201d every mom\u2019s ideal kind of friend to her very precious daughter. <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The story and its characters sprang from the imagination of author Markus Zusak whose novel The Book Thief was published in his native Australia in 2005 and throughout the rest of the world in 2006. The book has sold eight million copies worldwide, held a place on The New York Times best-seller list for almost seven years and has been translated into over 30 languages. Additionally, it has won over a dozen literary awards, held the number-one position at Amazon.com, and appeared on numerous best-of-the-year lists.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Zusak\u2019sbook and director Brian Percival\u2019s (\u201cDowntonAbbey\u201d) film adaptation tell the story of Liesel (Sophie N\u00e9lisse), who is sent to live with foster parents, the kind-hearted Hans Hubermann (Geoffrey Rush) and his prickly wife Rosa (Emily Watson). Reeling from the tragic death of her younger brother, Liesel is sent immediately to her new \u201cparents\u201d and struggles to fit in \u2013 at home and at school, where her classmates taunt her as \u201cdummkopf\u201d due to her inability to read.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
With the single-minded obsession of a budding scholar, Liesel is determined to change that. And she gets help. Her empathetic \u201cPapa,\u201d Hans (played by Geoffrey Rush) works day and night with Liesel as she pores over her first tome, \u201cThe Gravedigger\u2019s Handbook,\u201d which she walked off with following her brother\u2019s funeral \u2013 an impulsive act of thievery that will have profound consequences for the young heroine.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Liesel\u2019s love for reading and her growing appreciation for her new family are heightened when she befriends a new guest in the Hubermann\u2019s home \u2013 a Jewish refugee named Max (Ben Schnetzer), who shares her passion for books and encourages Liesel to expand her powers of observation, even as he hides from the Nazis in a dark and dank basement. Equally transformative is her burgeoning friendship with a young neighbor, Rudy who teases Liesel about her book thievery even as he finds himself falling in love with her.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Rudy is a major transformative figure in Liesel\u2019s journey with her exponentially growing love of books and the power beyond words. Liesel and Rudy become fast friends and do everything together, including stealing (\u201cborrowing,\u201d Liesel insists) books. In fact, it is Rudy who nicknames Liesel, \u201cThe Book Thief.\u201d <\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
While Liesel\u2019s passion is books, Rudy dreams of being a champion racer. His idol is African-American Olympic hero Jesse Owens, who achieved international fame by winning four gold medals in the 1936 Olympics in Berlin. Rudy even goes so far as to cover himself with black paint (which he stole from Hans\u2019 work cart), in honor of his idol \u2013 a choice that\u2019s none too popular with a town being consumed with the doctrine of Aryan supremacy.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Young German actor Nico Liersch describes Rudy as, \u201calways happy, nice to everyone, and never sad,\u201d and that description fits also the actor who plays him. Sophie and Nico became close friends during production \u2013 though Sophie would squeal with laughter through almost every take while shooting scenes where Rudy tries to kiss Liesel \u2013 much to the crew\u2019s amusement.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Nico Liersch began his acting career in TV commercials. Roles in German television followed and, in 2012, he made his feature film debut in \u201cKokow\u00e4\u00e4h2,\u201d appearing with Til Schweiger, who also directed, and Schweiger\u2019s daughter Emma Tiger Schweiger. It was Germany’s biggest movie that year at the box office. Liersch lives with his parents and sister in Munich where he attends secondary school. He enjoys playing handball and tennis, and snowboarding. He loves music and is learning to play the drums. <\/div>\n
