Waldemar Kobus (born 1966 in Szczytno [Ortelsburg], Poland) is a German actor.
Waldemar Kobus immigrated to Germany from Poland in 1970 as an ethnic German repatriate and grew up in Düren. Following his acting training at the Otto Falckenberg School in Munich, he secured engagements at renowned theaters in Frankfurt, Bochum, Stuttgart, Zurich, Vienna, and Cologne. Since the early 1990s, he has worked regularly in film and television, with his focus shifting increasingly toward on-camera work starting in 2001.
Kobus gained widespread recognition primarily through his role as the police officer Viktor Schimanek in the RTL comedy series *Alles Atze*.
