Tom Teufel in the media
In early 1996 the BRF offered Laffmeyer to produce an animated series about Tom Teufel. This is how the series The Tom Teufel Show was created. However, the series was canceled after 41 episodes in 1999. Reuns were broadcast on SR from 2000 to 2002 and on VINCTV since 2002. In 2009 VINCTV announced that it would continue the Tom Teufel Show from early 2011. Because of the great success, a 5th and 6th season were announced in March 2011. In early 2020, the series was extended to a further 3 seasons, with which the series runs until 2023.
Director Helmut Rommel secured the film rights to Tom Teufel in 1999. Rommel himself is a fan of comics and could very well imagine the comic as a film. The live action film "Tom Teufel" finally came to the Besmenian cinemas on July 25, 2004. The film is financially successful and was the second most viewed film in the country in 2004. It was also Helmut Rommel's last film, because he died of old age almost a month after the film premiere.
A second movie named The Tom Teufel Movie which is based on the TV show came to Besmenian cinemas on August 18 2019. The movie was very successful.
