Mellies was born in Schlawe, now Sławno in Poland. At age 16, he applied successfully for acting education at the Staatstheater Schwerin, learning with Lucie Höflich, the director of drama.

From 1956, he was a member of the Deutsches Theater Berlin, engaged by Wolfgang Langhoff. He turned to character roles such as Pylades in the 1976 production of Goethe's Iphigenie by Thomas Langhoff, with Inge Keller in the title role. During his 55 years on stage, he excelled as Lessing's Nathan, staged by Friedo Solter in 1987,[1] which he played 325 times.[2]
