His favorite movie is Duck Soup with the brothers Marx. Favorite actor is Gary Oldman.
Not comfortable with being a celebrity at such an early age, Alexander decided to quit acting. During almost eight years he turned down every offer he got. Instead he studied Political Science, did his Military service in the Marines and intended to study at a school of architecture in Stockholm. But in 1997 his longing for acting grew too strong and he enrolled at Marymount Theatre School in New York City.
The interest for Alexander Skarsgard outside of Scandinavia has grown rapidly over the last few years, and he has recently signed with the agency Endeavor in Los Angeles and New York and with Markham & Froggatt, Britain’s most acclaimed agency, to represent him in Europe. He can already be seen in big international movies such as "Zoolander" "The Last Drop" and "Revelations".
Made his debut in Allan Edwalls award winning drama "Ake och hans varld" in 1983. Worked frequently as a child actor during the 80s and became a huge teenage star when he played "Jojo" in Rumle Hammerichs "Hunden som log" in 1989.
When he came back to Sweden after two years in New York it didn’t take him long to land his first part as a grown up (in Christina Olofssons "Happy End" 1999). Since then he has done over fifteen movies in Scandinavia and is today one of Sweden’s most beloved stage and screen actors.
Where Are They Now
In 2007, he played one of the main characters, Sgt. Brad "Iceman" Colbert, in the acclaimed American miniseries, "Generation Kill".
In March, 2008 he joined the cast of True Blood, Alan Ball's new vampire drama series for HBO. The series, based on the Southern Vampire book series by Charlaine Harris, centers on the love story between a vampire, Bill (Stephen Moyer), and Sookie (Anna Paquin), a waitress who can read people's minds. Alex plays the role of Eric Northman, a 1,000 year old Viking Vampire and owner of Fangtasia. As of October 2008, True Blood has been picked up for a second season.
And life has never been the same nor has it ever been so good . . . . He has brought a new meaning to the word "sexy"!
Now, instead of saying “Oh my god, I should of have a V-8”, I am now saying “Oh my god, I should of have a VG.” Hey, every woman should have one in the morning . . . afternoon . . . . evening and at night, as well.
