Marc Rissmann Man in the High Castle
Rissmann played Wilhelm Goertzmann in season four of the 2019 television series, The Man in the High Castle. Goertzmann claims that Berlin is angry that an American is still in charge of Nazi America at their initial encounter in Smith’s office. He publicly makes fun of Smith during his appearances, although he behaves markedly less antagonistically when other people are there. Goertzmann and J. Edgar Hoover, the chief of the ARBI, had been plotting a putsch to take over the country.
Originally, Hoover was supposed to kill Nazi Command and provide evidence against Smith at the same conference, putting the two men in charge of the Nazi empire. But after speaking with Smith, Goertzmann had second thoughts and now supports Smith. Goertzmann attends the planning conference when Smith is called to Berlin to be ready for the invasion of western North America. Goertzmann kills General Adolf Eichmann and other members of the Nazi High Command off-screen as part of an earlier agreement while Smith is killing Himmler in his private office.
