'' (2019).
In the RTL action series ''Alarm for Cobra 11'' Vinzenz Kiefer was seen in the episode ''Revolution'' (episode 261, German first broadcast of 27 March 2014) for the first time the role of Chief Commissioner Alex Brandt, replacing his predecessor Tom Beck (in his role as chief commissioner Ben Jäger). With the episode ''Windspiel'' (episode 291, German first broadcast of 5 November 2015), the role of Alex Brandt dropped out of the series, surprisingly. The broadcaster justified this with a change of direction of the format, the narrative arc of the serious role of Alex Brandt was exhausted and there would be on the part of the audience the desire for more humor. Kiefer was in front of the camera for the series from July 2013 to July 2015. Since September 2016 he has been married to actress Masha Tokareva.
