his biggest commercial success are the movies "der wixxer" (2004) and "neues vom wixxer" (2007), a parody of the german edgar wallace screen adaptations from the 1960s. the movies were based on a "frühstyxradio" sketch series and the scripts written together with comedian bastian pastewka as chief inspector even longer. for years, kalkofe has announced being in pre-production on a third installment to be entitled "triple wixx" (the title being an obvious nod to the 2002 film "xxx", pronounced as "triple x"), but so far, this project has never come out of the development stages, and especially the death of co-star joachim fuchsberger in 2014 has cast doubts upon its eventual materialization.
