Beeing a grandson of the famous Dutch actor Piet Romer, and nephew of several other well known actors Thijs Romer’s career as an actor may seem a little predictable. The past years however he has proven his talents in a series of productions in theatres as well as on the big screen and on television.

Thijs has worked together with director Theo van Gogh for a number of times now. He played a part in the television drama Najib& Julia, features in Van Gogh’s movies ‘Cool’ and ‘Medea’.

In May 6th Thijs plays the role of Jim, a fluked photographer who –against his will- becomes a major part of the conspiracy around the murder of politician Pim Fortuyn.
