Cast
The cast was picked by Studio 100's own Gert Verhulst, well known in The Netherlands and Flanders by his performance in the kids' show Samson & Gert. All cast members have a decent skill level in singing and dancing, which can be seen in their shows and tours around The Netherlands and Flanders. Loek (Nienke's actress) sang all of the opening songs.



Nienke Martens
Actress: Loek Beernink

German Version: Nina Martens English version: Nina Martin

Nienke is much more shy than Nina in House of Anubis. Another difference with the English version is that Nienke is not American, which was made up for the English remake, "House of Anubis" as another reason for Patricia to distrust her. Nienke starts out very shy but ends up more like Nina always was. Also, Nienke was not the Chosen One like in the English version. A lot of people thought she was, but it was later revealed she was some sort of Osirian. She just had to find and protect the real Chosen One (Noa in the Dutch version, Mara in the German version). In the third movie it's revealed Nienke is studying to become a doctor and works in the hospital as an intern. She wants to help people.



Fabian Ruitenburg
Actor: Lucien van Geffen

German Version: Daniel Gutenberg

English version: Fabian Rutter

The Dutch version of Fabian is a lot geekier than the English version. He does not play the guitar, and is almost always seen reading, even more than the English Fabian does. Fabian is usually the one that solves puzzles and finds clues. In Season 4, it was thought that Fabian had died from the coma, but really, the doctor hid him at his house along with Noa. When he returns to Het Huis Anubis, he disguises himself with the help of Nienke and Amber as a different student. His best friend is Mick, who was the only person outside of Sibuna who still knew Fabian was alive. After the last episode, Fabian and Nienke grow apart and Fabian becomes an archeologist. However, at the end of the third movie him and Nienke reunite and start dating again.



Amber Rozenberg
Actress: Iris Hesseling

German Version: Delia Seefeld

English version: Amber Millington

The Dutch Amber seems much more headstrong than the English version. She immediately knows that something is wrong with Mick in the first episode, while the English Amber takes much more time to discover it. The Dutch Amber is also much more hot-headed and has much more Eureka-moments. Her best friends are Nienke and Appie, who she starts to date in the very last movie. This is different from the English version, where they started dating in season 2. In the third movie it's revealed Amber became a fashion model after graduating.



Patricia Soeters
Actress: Vreneli van Helbergen

German Version: Luzy Schoppa

English version: Patricia Williamson

The Dutch and English versions are mostly similar to one another; the only small difference is in their clothing: the English Patricia wears much more gothic-like outfits, sporting colors like black and purple, and the Dutch Patricia wears brighter colors. In the Dutch version, Patricia's panicking around Joyce's (Joy's) disappearance makes less sense because no clip of her leaving was ever shown. After she starts working at the school paper she gets messages from an secret admirer, who is revealed to be Robbie. She starts dating him, even though he is a year younger than her. She also finds out he's Mr. Swieten's son. At the beginning of the 4th season she moves to America with Joyce for their scholarship, but she and Robbie have a long-distance relationship, unlike Mick and Joyce, who break up.



Mick Zeelenberg
Actor: Vincent Banic

German Version: Kaya Sahin

English version: Mick Campbell

The Dutch Mick and English Mick are similar. They both love sports and aren't that smart. The only difference in their personalities, is that the Dutch Mick is much colder, a polar opposite to Dutch Amber's hotheadedness. His father wants him to become a doctor and he actually wants to become one too. The reason for this is that Mick has a sister who's blind and he want to cure blindness. However, he is just better at sports so he pursues that instead. Mick dated four girls in the house: Amber, Mara, Joyce. In the second movie he is still in love with Sofie, In the 4 season when joyce left he starting to date Sofie. First, he hated Sofie but then he loved Sofie.



Appie Tayibi
Actor: Achmed Akkabi and Kevin Wekker

German Version: Felix Gaber

English version: Alfie Lewis



Two people played Appie. The first one (Achmed Akkabi) left because he had been cast in a film, but they actually changed the plot so that another actor could play Appie. According to the series, Appie's appearance changed when he touched an artifact. Appie is not that different from Alfie, although his pranks are. He is usually seen with horror toys like bloody arms. He likes to tease Amber as well. Unlike Alfie and Amber in the English version, Appie and Amber don't start dating until the last movie. In that movie Appie and Amber meet up five years after the end of the show and Appie has a girlfriend, Belona. Amber is jealous and mistrusting of Belona. At the end of the movie it's revealed Belona was the mastermind behind all the bad things that happened and Sibuna defeats her. Amber and Appie then start to date. They never dated in the actual show but are mostly seen as BFF's there.



Jeroen Cornelissen
Actor: Sven de Wijn

German Version: Magnus von Hagen

English version: Jerome Clarke

Jeroen is just like his English version, Jerome: he likes messing with people and their feelings, and has blackmailed a lot of the other residents. Like the English version, Mara, and later Noa, are the only ones who can actually understand him and he opens up to them alone. He is also a member of Sibuna. Jeroen leaves midway through season 4 to research something in Egypt. He returns in the final episode.He also falls in love with Noa, 'the chosen one'.



Mara Sabri
Actress: Liliana de Vries

German Version: Mara Minkmar

English version: Mara Jaffray

Mara is, just like her English version, and perhaps even more so, a very quiet girl. She likes studying. The Dutch version is much more impatient than the English one: she gets irritated easily, especially when Patricia starts talking about Joyce's disappearance. She liked Jeroen, and he liked her, and that made Mick jealous. In the Dutch version of the series, Mara left for Dubai with her parents and twin sister, but it is unknown if this happened because of the actress or because of the plot. She was replaced by Noa. In the English and German versions Mara did not leave the show.



Noa van Rijn
Actress: Gamze Tazim

German Version:Charlotte Bachmann& Mara Minkmar

English Version: KT Rush

Noa suddenly appears when Mara leaves for Dubai. Noa is a confident, creative girl who loves old things, candles and flea markets. She is very stylish and is different in everything she does. She is a descendant of Amneris, and is actually an Egyptian princess. Noa develops a very special bond with Jeroen. It is unknown whether or not Mara will take over this role, like they did in the German version, or if Noa will appear.



Joyce van Bodegraven
Actress: Marieke Westenenk

German Version: Linn Bredemeier & Charlotte Bachmann

English Version: Joy Mercer

Joyce likes to wager, and everyone seems to like her, just like the English Joy]. Joyce's disappearance is much less of a mystery in the Dutch version, because we do not actually see her leave. Patricia is the only one that actually cares about her, but everyone else doesn't panic and seems to forget her easily. At the end of the series, Joyce breaks up with Mick and leaves with Patricia to live in America for their scholarship.



Victor Emanuel Rodenmaar Jr.
Actor: Walter Crommelin

German Version: Victor Emanuel Rodemer

English Version: Victor Rodenmaar Jr.

Although the Dutch version of Victor looks very creepy, he becomes nicer every season. In the beginning, he is very mean to the other residents, which makes one wonder why he even lets teenagers live in 'his' house. His stuffed raven Corvus (Corvus is Latin for raven) seems to be his only friend.

Sofie Rodenmaar
Actor: Claartje Janse

German Version: none

English version: none

After Joyce and Patricia left the house at the beginning of season 4 for their scholarship in America and Trudy also left the house when she married Appie's uncle, Victor invited his sister, Marijke, and her two teenage children to come and live in the house. Marijke became the new housemother. Sofie is the oldest twin and kind of a nerdy girl but isn't ashamed to admit it. She always dresses proper and always gets good grades. When she  first meets Mick she doesn't really like him and she thinks he's a stupid jock, but she secretly starts to like him later on. However, Mick still isn't over Joyce and doesn't want to start a new relationship, even though he develops feelings for Sofie. In the last episode they admit to their feelings and start dating. It is shown in the second movie that they're still dating, while Joyce regrets breaking up with Mick.

Danny Rodenmaar
Actor: Patrick Wessels

German Version: none

English version: none

Danny is Sofie's twin brother. He is a joker, like Appie. He want to be the best joker of the house, so he tries to be funnier  than Appie. This doesn't always work and most people just think he's annoying. Nobody really likes Danny, but he doesn't really give them a reason to. He is also a mama's boy and often complaints to Marijke. He is her 'little baby' so she always believes him, even when he's lying. When Danny comes to live in the house, he immediately discovers there's a secret club (Sibuna). He wants to join the club, but instead of being nice and asking Sibuna, he steals one of their clues and tries  to blackmail his way in. Sibuna steals the clue back and distrust him even more. At the end of the season he admits he was wrong and Sibuna forgive him.



Differences with the English version
The first major difference is that Joyce (Joy) is not shown in the first episode. We do not see her leave. The episode starts with Nienke and her grandmother in a cab as they travel to the House of Anubis. A black car passes by. If you watch it without knowing the plot, you will not know that Joyce is in the black car. For first-timers to understand this, the car wasn't emphasized enough. The biggest difference is that Chosen one plot at the end of season one was not used in the Dutch version,They thought that Nienke 'Nina' was the chosen one, but she's not it was Noa because of this the mystery with Joyce and the mystery of the grail (Cup of Ankh) were two separate plots. Mara left the show when her sister came to visit her.Joyce's story was that her parents witnessed Rufus in an accident (never explains what the accident was) and Rufus tried to forever silence the family.

In season two the story was heavily edited. The plot of Sibuna was tying to complete the tasks is still ther. They was never a masker to found in hha. they try to help the grail (graal)find love. Also Jasper, Senkarah, and Poppy were all new characters and Japser is a bit semalar to Ibramhim ( he got married with trudie) Also the Collector's role is much different. His name in the dutch version is Raven and he has a bigger role then the Collector in the English version. He is also not Rufus Zeno instead a new character, Wolf or Mr. Renson, the new history teacher. There are also other small differences like Trudy not having anything to do with Vera, the gem's background, Jasper replacing most of Jerome's roles, and Mick not leaving the house. Neither do nina. In season 3 KT came,

Other differences are in the character's personalities. (See Cast)

For a long time it was believed Mara was taking over Noa's role, but the story edits were so heavy Noa's role was not included in the story.
