I have to say, as I know Ulica in detail, that it is challenging for a good actor to live with it in the long term,” Reitler explained.
Reitler further elaborated on the difficulties of portraying such a negative character. “When he appears negatively on the screen every day, how is he supposed to park or normally shop in a store. The whole school is about to turn against Lucca, and the audience is in for quite a bit of satisfaction,” he added, offering a glimpse into upcoming storylines for “Ulica.”
