Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Maximilien Poullein was born on April 28, 1983 in Lille, France. Two separate encounters led him into wanting to become an actor.

First one was screening "The Running Man" with Arnold Schwarzenegger : this Sunday morning at the age of six imprinted a major turning point in his love for the American cinema.

Secondly, playing the part of César in the Marcel Pagnol play, convinced Max, at the age of ten, that acting had to be his way of making a living.

From that point until the age of 18, Max kept on following drama classes with the cast-iron intention of becoming an actor.

Taking advice from his supportive mother, Max decided to join the English-speaking theatre company entitled Angellier while studying English for four years at University Lille 3.

In that theatre company Max performed amongst other parts : Gibbs in The "Hothouse" de Harold Pinter in 2002; René, a gay salesman in original play entitled "Fool's day" (2003) by Laurent Thiry, and, lead part of Jack "Ernest" Worthing in "The Importance of Being Ernest" by Oscar Wilde in 2004.

After taking seven years of various drama classes from 1997 until 2004, Max moved to Paris in July 2005 where he started playing in short independent films with parts such as a guy cheating on his girl with a doll in "Dolly" Alexandre Lefebvre, or, a creepy stalker but that was just a hide and seek pursuit in "Cache-Cache" by Julien Le Goff. In long-feature movies such as Entre ses mains (2005) et Je vais bien ne t'en fais pas (2006).

In 2007, he portrayed Jimmy Jones in "When Ronny met Cindy ?!", Frederic Eger's second short film.

Holds a Masters Degree in English from University Lille III (2005).

A bilingual French/English actor, Maximilien Poullein also speaks Italian fluently, German, and has strong notions of Swedish and Spanish.
