Spoiler
Michael Fassbender is a German-Irish actor born in Heidelberg, Germany and raised in Killarney, Ireland.
I think that counts as him being from Germany?
71 acting credits

I had the same trouble. What's the name of that Aussie who was married to Tom Cruise? Didn't remember it but it wouldn't have helped - Nicole Kidman was born in Hawaii.
Thanks for enjoying this quizz - not too many would.
