The show is an intriguing mix of history and science-fiction, and Muser — best known for his soap opera work in shows like Santa Barbara and The Bold And The Beautiful — gives a mighty performance as an aging and sickly Hitler secluded inside a mysterious castle.

Martin Wuttke In Inglourious Basterds
IMDbMartin Wuttke’s portrayal of Adolf Hitler is one of the few that doesn’t care about humanizing the Nazi leader.
If you’ve watched 2009’s Inglourious Basterds, you’ll likely remember the ridiculous scene in which a raging Adolf Hitler — expertly imagined by German actor Martin Wuttke — pounded his fist while screaming “Nein!”
The Hitler Wuttke portrays is more of a supporting character and so has very little time on screen. Yet, it was enough time to create one of the most memorable depictions of the dictator in recent years.
Martin Wuttke’s notorious rant scene.The emphasis on Hitler’s infamous temper borders on satire just enough to avoid becoming slapstick.
Wuttke’s performance is thus one of the few recent portrayals of the dictator that clearly doesn’t care about humanizing him.
