The actor Hans Stock made his theater debut in 1887 in Dresden where he got his first engagement at the Hoftheater. In the next years followed appearances on other German stages, among others in Munich and Berlin. He also went on tour which led him to important cities like Moscow and London.

Hans Stock entered the film business in 1913 with "Wo ist Coletti?" (13) and in the next years followed other silent movies like "General von Berning" (14), "Stuart Webbs: Die Toten erwachen" (15), "Der müde Theodor" (18) and "Die Liebe der Marion Bach" (19).
