71 - Richard Sharrah - The Luke Skywalker for the Vertical World...

His life almost sounds like a fairytale . He even married a real
(Disney) princess and together they have three wonderful
children.

Richard Sharrah sat down with me for a conversation about his
love for acting , his experiences on set , his life, and his
plans for the future .

He has taken the Vertical world and its audience by storm . His
trademark in Vertical series? Father roles. As we discovered, not
always the loving kind – for example in “Mommy Don’t Cry Daddy Is
Sorry.” These roles perfectly showcase Richard’s incredible range
as an actor . One of his personal highlights in 2025 was his
first Vertical shoot together with his son Maverick – a very
special and meaningful experience for him.

The actor and businessman with an MBA , who until recently was
under an exclusive contract with ReelShort, ended that
exclusivity in early 2026 to the delight of many fans . Now he’s
ready to conquer the entire Vertical world – including
international productions .

During our conversation, filled with laughter and humor, Richard
and I also create a little “To Do / To Visit” list for 2026 .
Besides filming in Europe , I invite the half-German actor to
visit his homeland again – maybe for my Soundgarden or for
another magical Christmas market tour in winter .

Even before the recording started ️, our conversation had already
developed a wonderful depth and connection. We talked not only
about career and projects, but also about life itself – about the
importance of self-care and the beauty of living in the moment
.

Just to be clear: if Richard suddenly shows up with a new tattoo
in the near future ️, that idea was entirely his. Jessica
@jessicasharrah , I take absolutely no responsibility for
it.

A wonderful conversation about life , the love of living ️, and
big visions .

This is definitely an episode you don’t want to miss! ️
