If people are put off him cause of the character then that's stupid cause it shows how well he played that character.. guys it's acting.. he's the nicest guy in the planet
Right?! I LOOOOOVE him but OMG, I was totally SHOOK because I'm so used to see him as a nice guy that it was impressive watching him as such an... Anyways, that proves how freaking good of an actor he is
It's those d*mn legs/I know bud. I know. Same with one of his brothers who acts. These guys are heavy on the SA. Honestly, lol. But, he's a really good committed actor in honesty and on a more serious note too, lol.
Yes. Oh. My. God! Is gorgeous, soooo sexy! He has alot of sex appeal. My biggest celeb crush! Yes he is charming , nice personality. The fact that he acted a disturbing character says alot about him! A great actor! Man of my dreams! 💋💋
He's referring to Barnsdall Park, where there's a Frank Lloyd Wright house, nice view, art museum and art classes. It was funny to me that when I finally got around to watching Big Little Lies, I had just been there the previous day and walked UP the exact (kind of hidden) stairs that his character falls down to his death. I don't think I can ever take those stairs again without thinking of him.
This interviewer is great and asked some excellent questions. Too often it seems that interviewers dwell on Skarsgard's good looks and skim over his acting skills. That first scene where he snaps was shocking and excellently acted.
Tarzan ;) gosh I hated him in BLL. He scared me and every time he came in the room, it almost felt like I was the one being attacked. That's how raw and real it was. It was a great show. But gosh, I was shook.
Yeah that's so weird. I always cringe really hard when I hear actors playing villains saying fans act rude towards them. Some persons are unable to dissociate character and actor, it's quite concerning.
As physically gorgeous as Alexander is, it's his talent, depth and genuineness as an artist and person that make him so incredibly appealing. This was such a great interview as Yvonne built such casual rapport with Alexander and I felt like I was chatting with him up close and getting to better know the mind and personality of the true artist and cool guy. So great!
Good observations. It's a better portrayal of an abusive relationship to portray this complexity of character. Part of why many women stay in violent relationships are because it's not as black and white as the media tends to portray it.
Cecelia Mchugh Yes exactly!! I had an abusive boyfriend and it was very hard to leave him because he was horrible /wonderful, switching abruptly from one attitude to the other...very confusing...in the end I could do that (with some help) and now I am happy and, above all, alive.
(SPOILER ALERT, vague, but still Spoilers) Ro Ro, thanks for sharing your story, and I'm so glad you escaped that situation! I had a trauma in a relationship myself, the thing that really struck me about the portrayal was the way it brought the audience along in a way that mimics your realization as a "victim" of trauma. In the beginning it's confusing, and it seems like it's not really what it (actually quite clearly) is, you wonder if she's contributing or inciting it to some extent, you even wonder if she likes it, and also you think that there's so much good there that he can change. In all other portrayals on other shows or movies you're just looking at the woman like "How could you stay? What on earth are you staying for?"... but in this you find yourself rooting for them to figure it out at times, and completely see why she is still with him. Even as it gets close to the end and you know that it's undoubtedly inexcusable abuse (and as you start to see clearly you wonder how you could have been confused in the first place: of course this behaviour is NOT alright), but even up until you really get gobsmacked with what a monster he is some part of you is rooting for them and hoping he gets help. It really mimicked that crawling up your spine realization that you are a victim of abuse, so confusing at first, then coming to realizations in stages and once it becomes completely clear you wonder how on earth you didn't see it (or ever excused the action) to begin with.
Your description is sooo TRUE! there are some parts of your inner self that like to 'accept' that on/off attitude. Once you find out why, how and when this started in your heart/mind you can accept to be a victim and slowly try to get out from there...in the show that comes out clearly...I am glad the writers avoided all that creepy thing about people and friends who keep asking you how you couldn't see/understand something so obviously strange and crazy about him ...I got it myself and I felt twice as guilty ( of what? victims feel guilty of being victims). So. Its a matter of self confidence and self consciousness: in the end you understand THIS is not love and you don't deserve to be treated as his emotional dustbin ...NOBODY will do that to you AGAIN. ..geeeez it was hard to get there! Thank you for your words....people sharing their own experience is always warm solace ...
Cecelia Mchugh read It ends with us by Colleen Hoover. KIRKUS REVIEW Hoover’s (November 9, 2015, etc.) latest tackles the difficult subject of domestic violence with romantic tenderness and emotional heft. At first glance, the couple is edgy but cute: Lily Bloom runs a flower shop for people who hate flowers; Ryle Kincaid is a surgeon who says he never wants to get married or have kids. They meet on a rooftop in Boston on the night Ryle loses a patient and Lily attends her abusive father’s funeral. The provocative opening takes a dark turn when Lily receives a warning about Ryle’s intentions from his sister, who becomes Lily’s employee and close friend. Lily swears she’ll never end up in another abusive home, but when Ryle starts to show all the same warning signs that her mother ignored, Lily learns just how hard it is to say goodbye. When Ryle is not in the throes of a jealous rage, his redeeming qualities return, and Lily can justify his behavior: “I think we needed what happened on the stairwell to happen so that I would know his past and we’d be able to work on it together,” she tells herself. Lily marries Ryle hoping the good will outweigh the bad, and the mother-daughter dynamics evolve beautifully as Lily reflects on her childhood with fresh eyes. Diary entries fancifully addressed to TV host Ellen DeGeneres serve as flashbacks to Lily’s teenage years, when she met her first love, Atlas Corrigan, a homeless boy she found squatting in a neighbor’s house. When Atlas turns up in Boston, now a successful chef, he begs Lily to leave Ryle. Despite the better option right in front of her, an unexpected complication forces Lily to cut ties with Atlas, confront Ryle, and try to end the cycle of abuse before it’s too late. The relationships are portrayed with compassion and honesty, and the author’s note at the end that explains Hoover’s personal connection to the subject matter is a must-read. Packed with riveting drama and painful truths, this book powerfully illustrates the devastation of abuse-and the strength of the survivors.
I was in an abusive relationship years ago and I can relate a lot with Celeste and Perry's relationship. The first few months was wonderful. My ex was so romantic and loving and passionate. He did everything for me. Then few months later there would be moments when he snaps and become so aggressive and violent and he would do things that would really hurt. Then e goes back again to his sweet and romantic self when he calms down. He would cry and apologize and beg me to stay. It was confusing. It almost felt like I was with two different men. I wanted to leave him several times but then again I will feel sorry for him cause I know he has been to a lot of trauma in the past and that he is also struggling inside. I thought I could save him but in the end it was not my responsibility to change him. I had to love myself first and save myself from a toxic relationship. A lot of people don't understand how complex abusive relationships can be and why even smart and seemingly strong women remain with abusive men. I'm with another man now and thank God he is nothing like my ex and I am happier now.

My ex was the same way. It was like someone would flip a switch, and he would be another person, a violent, scary person. Alexander does a great job. Being in that kind of relationship is very complicated!!
this is what narcissists do - listen about "gas lighting" on youtube and "relationship with a narcissist" and you will understand why they behave this way. the aim is indeed to confuse you and take advantage of your weaknesses
I think most of it is that she actually lets him speak. People like Kelly Rippa or Chelsea Handler constantly try to talk over the people they're interviewing and interrupt them to change the subject abruptly, but she asked a question and then let him answer in full before she moved on.
23 years ago i got a hold of a fake ID and went to a club in Stockholm called Cafe Opera.I was super drunk and spotted Alexander in the club,walked up to him from behind,put my hands on his shoulders,spun him around and i said "Hey man it's you!" He just smiled and said "Hi,nice to meet you friend." Shook my hand and then kept talking to his friends. Nicest person ever.
Looks wise; sure he’d be great but they’re terrible films, terrible books, poor writing, poor cinematography etc etc etc it would have put such a bad dent in his career, so on that hand I’m happy for whatever reason that he DIDNT do 50 Shades.
Malone and Sloan Gah! Now, as another Southern native I’d love to know where you are from because I don’t hear “south” either! Admittedly, I have lived most of my life in rural areas so as you said I may be used to more pronounced dialect!
I like this girl a lot, such a nice interview. I also watched the other interview with Josh Charles (Good Wife's Will Gardner) and it was brilliant. Alexander is gorgeous too.
The way they showed us Perri and Celeste's relationship bit by bit was genius, the first scene like he said felt off and made me pause : I thought he was going to hit her, and when he didn't I thought he was just overprotective of his sons and I kind of brushed it off just because he was so SWEET just ealier. They did an AMAZING job ! the cast, the crew, everyone ! 10/10
This was a good interview indeed. It's questions that Alexander had to think about and wasn't sometime repetitive to talk about. Bless. Good work, and great show
Really good interview, with Alexander Skarsgard Big Little Lies, HBO series. Great character portrayals of someone with textbook narcissistic personality disorder and the domestic abuse that goes along with it. In particular, the mind and control head games. Well done Alex and all the others, very believable! Keeping this kind of abuse a dirty little secret is so dangerous, and it's truly not the victim's fault.
I really hope people don’t see Alexander in a negative light and can differentiate between him and the character. He’s a wonderful actor and a good person.
While watching the show I had to constantly remind myself that he’s just an actor and he’s not like that in real life lmfao, I hated his character with great passion, this is when u realise how great of an actor he is!
its def complex but maybe its my past abuse talking , but i think its more than just that hes hot and "bad" in fact what i really loved about perry was that they made him real. abusive ppl have good sides. look at him with his kids. perfect father really. and too often we want to pretend ppl are only made up of good or bad.. which is not true. we fall in love with something and its not the abuse.. worst therapist ever tho.
What a great interview! It was almost like watching him talk to a fan who knew every detail of the project. Alex was really sweet and patient and he did beautiful work in Big Little Lies.
He is amazingly handsome and seems very nice with a great sense of humour-it is a pleasure to watch him on interviews or silver screen. My huge celebrity crush since I saw him on "True blood"
Great interview! Great questions. Really got to understand more about Alec's process on acting and behing the scene stuff about the show. And Alec's so chill, and has a cheeky sense of humor. The interviewer is really comfortable. Nice job!
He's an amazing actor and he Portrayed his character so well that we felt it was real. Guys that's the art and his chemistry with Nichole was off the charts. Lots of love.......
I love that we have already seen Perry's twin sister in the flesh. Feel free to thank me after googling him in drag at the Diary of a Teenage Girl première. He was great in this show, glad to hear what he thought about it
She is a good interviewer in terms of eloquence and creating a comfortable atmosphere but I feel like the questions were very similar and could have been more diverse.
I was in an abusive relationship with a narcissist at the time the show first aired. Watching Skarsgard was painful, scary and almost hurt physically. Which proves how brilliant he was. I freed myself three years ago and I'm thinking of re-watching it now to see my reaction to him today. I'm still a little bit scared of possibly triggering some trauma response. On the side note - the interviewer is fantastic. Saw her with the Outlander cast - she's doing great job creating safe relaxed space for good conversation. Bravo.
Really enjoyed this interview.. she made it interesting and relevant. All about the acting.knowing the preparation and the process of his fantastic acting abilities was a rare insight in most of actors interviews.. fabulous interviewer. Thank you for allowing a fan to appreciate his acting skills rather than lusting after a character.
I'm thinking of the character he plays on Big Little Lies...im seeing the jean shirt he is wearing and all I can think about is him playing Randall Flagg.
Just finished this show today and I kid you not, I started screaming when they revealed who it was and what happened. I could not believe I didn't predict it. Absolutely incredible show. Goosebumps everywhere.
If people are put off him cause of the character then that's stupid cause it shows how well he played that character.. guys it's acting.. he's the nicest guy in the planet
reneewilson I'm going to have to watch this show because crazy guys really turn me on. Sounds like good flapping material.
Right?! I LOOOOOVE him but OMG, I was totally SHOOK because I'm so used to see him as a nice guy that it was impressive watching him as such an...
Anyways, that proves how freaking good of an actor he is
Right?! He’s Swedish!!! 😎😉
SugarPigDolls&Vlogs he was a badass Eric Northman, who wasn’t always a nice guy!
reneewilson I agree with you on how sweet he is. He so the opposite of Perry.
Oh. My. Bloody. God. He is absolutely fucking gorgeous.
It's those d*mn legs/I know bud. I know. Same with one of his brothers who acts. These guys are heavy on the SA. Honestly, lol.
But, he's a really good committed actor in honesty and on a more serious note too, lol.
feminist
Don't see the fuss
Oh yes he's definitely the sexiest man alive. Because he's so beautiful inside and out. I freaking worship him haha.
Yes. Oh. My. God! Is gorgeous, soooo sexy! He has alot of sex appeal. My biggest celeb crush! Yes he is charming , nice personality. The fact that he acted a disturbing character says alot about him! A great actor! Man of my dreams! 💋💋
He's an ACTOR and a damned good one. He did an incredible job on a very complex and insane character.
There is something so fun and nice about Alexander; he seems like someone I would love to have in my life as a close friend.
jaydeesubscriptions he doesn't want to be your friend.
jaydeesubscriptions
Yep! A close friend...with BENEFITS! Lol
x9xo Don't be mean. Sheesh.
He blew my mind, probably the best character in the show.
He's referring to Barnsdall Park, where there's a Frank Lloyd Wright house, nice view, art museum and art classes. It was funny to me that when I finally got around to watching Big Little Lies, I had just been there the previous day and walked UP the exact (kind of hidden) stairs that his character falls down to his death. I don't think I can ever take those stairs again without thinking of him.
I would like to undo his shirt buttons
He's following his brother's footsteps as a villain in a Stephen King's adaptation. Can't wait to see his Randal Flagg.
💕 🥰
"A couple scenes when I was with Shailene..." oh no spoiler D:
His portrayal was frighteningly brilliant, which goes to show what a truly gifted actor he is.
Thanks for your love and support ❤️ how long have you been a fan?
This interviewer is great and asked some excellent questions. Too often it seems that interviewers dwell on Skarsgard's good looks and skim over his acting skills. That first scene where he snaps was shocking and excellently acted.
Tarzan ;) gosh I hated him in BLL. He scared me and every time he came in the room, it almost felt like I was the one being attacked. That's how raw and real it was. It was a great show. But gosh, I was shook.
ME TOO. The finale scene when they were in the car, i was STRESSED AF. I was so scared about the stuff he was gonna do in the car to her
He is so incredible.. but yes, scary to watch
Yvonne, you are a fantastic interviewer. Great flow, no random filler noises, great questions, intelligent feedback. Rock on, you talented woman!
Why you lying????
And what is “filler noise”?
I met him. He was a complete gentleman and sweetheart. People need to separate the tv character and the actor.
Yeah that's so weird. I always cringe really hard when I hear actors playing villains saying fans act rude towards them. Some persons are unable to dissociate character and actor, it's quite concerning.
YES omg

PTSD, my dad was like that, an ex boyfriend, a son in law...Loving one minute and losing it the next

I don't understand why those tweets are attacking ASKARS when it was his CHARACTER ON THE SHOW that is abusive not HIM, the ACTOR. People get a grip!
Angie Mencia yeah people can’t seem to separate actor and real person
I like the host. She seems at ease and she puts the guest at ease.
NJCUJan all she asks is "how was it like?" and sometimes he looked so confused 😕😕
She usually is great but this time i think the got really nervous...
FWAJR agree. I didn't love this!
I think most of it is that she actually lets him speak. People like Kelly Rippa or Chelsea Handler constantly try to talk over the people they're interviewing and interrupt them to change the subject abruptly, but she asked a question and then let him answer in full before she moved on.
He's Alexander Skarsgård! Keeping it cool and not fainting would not be an easy feat.
Alex and Nicole both deserve an Emmy for their performances in Big Little Lies.
D Goley Reese! She is amazing in it!
they both did!
luke emerson Yes! They well deserved the awards.
And each won a Golden Globe..
He's brilliant.
Instead of porn, I came here. Works the same. 😘
same
same
hahahah me too
charmedlilsis1 😂I am on the same page! I am totally mesmerized by this guy!
same😂
I loved him in True Blood but he didn't trick me as frightening as he did in BLL, it was a strange thing.
He's definitely a Virgo dissecting his performance 😂
I hope to actually enjoy the next role I see Alexander in. I still miss Eric.
AbbieJolie who is Eric?
alimotshadiat He played Eric Northman, a 1000 year old vamp in True Blood. Him, Ginger and Pam was the best characters in the show.
Oh God me too!!
Simone Rose FOREALL!!!! I miss Eric
Oh man don’t get me started on true blood... forever be bitter about Eric and Sookie.
23 years ago i got a hold of a fake ID and went to a club in Stockholm called Cafe Opera.I was super drunk and spotted Alexander in the club,walked up to him from behind,put my hands on his shoulders,spun him around and i said "Hey man it's you!" He just smiled and said "Hi,nice to meet you friend." Shook my hand and then kept talking to his friends.
Nicest person ever.
This guy could play bond, Christian grey, name it and you'll have it. Pls give him epic roles, he deserves them
He's so fantastic in the more intimate, complex roles, and he seems to like those best, from what he says.
Great interview! And such a good host as well.
Thanks for your love and support ❤️ how long have you been a fan?
his behaviour in the show really shocked me. it was really disturbing. very good acted by the way.
Gosh dang it he should've played Christian grey😭😭😭😭😭 he would've been PERFECT
Jaz Gandi he would have been perfect
Can't agree more!
I guess he didn't want to be part of a subpar script (it was rubbish)
I adore him and Christian grey for me is Alex lol....
Looks wise; sure he’d be great but they’re terrible films, terrible books, poor writing, poor cinematography etc etc etc it would have put such a bad dent in his career, so on that hand I’m happy for whatever reason that he DIDNT do 50 Shades.
The best show I have ever seen.
Yes! Also "Taboo" with Tom Hardy for me
It's great to see how well prepared the interviewer is and at the same time sensitive in her way of questioning.
"Ladies, the camera isn't even rolling." Brilliant performances from everyone, you destroyed Alex!!!!! Whoo hoo!
I'm so confused by his accent. Some interviews he sounds Swedish but here he sounds American/southern. I'm confusedddd
Kelsey Sutton Years in the south and accent training when filming True Blood, I guess.
He mostly sounds SOUTHERN
Lol how does he sound southern. I live in the south, he does not sound southern!!! Or maybe I’m just too southern to notice 😂
Malone and Sloan Gah! Now, as another Southern native I’d love to know where you are from because I don’t hear “south” either! Admittedly, I have lived most of my life in rural areas so as you said I may be used to more pronounced dialect!
I think I also heard that he came to live in Texas as a teenager/young man so perhaps his earliest experience speaking English was southern accent.
why they hate Alex , he's an amazing actor , they should hate men like Perry
I like this girl a lot, such a nice interview. I also watched the other interview with Josh Charles (Good Wife's Will Gardner) and it was brilliant.
Alexander is gorgeous too.
Incredible, honest, funny and brilliant!
The way they showed us Perri and Celeste's relationship bit by bit was genius, the first scene like he said felt off and made me pause : I thought he was going to hit her, and when he didn't I thought he was just overprotective of his sons and I kind of brushed it off just because he was so SWEET just ealier.

Well done Alex and all the others, very believable! Keeping this kind of abuse a dirty little secret is so dangerous, and it's truly not the victim's fault.
Thanks for your love and support ❤️ how long have you been a fan?
I really hope people don’t see Alexander in a negative light and can differentiate between him and the character. He’s a wonderful actor and a good person.
Talented man, and so very handsome. Very handsome.
While watching the show I had to constantly remind myself that he’s just an actor and he’s not like that in real life lmfao, I hated his character with great passion, this is when u realise how great of an actor he is!
But why read the tweet? Is it so necessary to know there are people out there who can't see the difference between reality and an actor job?
This girl is amazing! She is a great interviewer!
He played him very well...Hes sexy as hell but he's a good actor x
Great host and handsome Swede! Thanks for the interview!
The interviewer is fantastic, so confident but relax and he’s easily giving deeper insight of the creative process
He should have played Mr. Grey on 50 shades of grey
its a shit film so no
jennifer stewart oh yeah 🤩
She's a great interviewer, please keep her 🤩
Do ppl not understand what acting is?
It's los angeles times so... yeah, they dont.
Sign of excellent acting ...disliking someone for a role you have seen them portray. Love BLL.😊🇨🇦
God bless Sweden 😍
Great interview! I really enjoyed it.
He is too gorgeous I love him in true blood and Tarzan with those muscles yum
its def complex but maybe its my past abuse talking , but i think its more than just that hes hot and "bad" in fact what i really loved about perry was that they made him real. abusive ppl have good sides. look at him with his kids. perfect father really. and too often we want to pretend ppl are only made up of good or bad.. which is not true. we fall in love with something and its not the abuse.. worst therapist ever tho.
What a great interview! It was almost like watching him talk to a fan who knew every detail of the project. Alex was really sweet and patient and he did beautiful work in Big Little Lies.
Thanks for your love and support ❤️ how long have you been a fan?
Can't people understand he's just acting???? For F Sake people take everything so literally!!
He’s so damn very handsome man and hot 🥵
What a sweetheart and gentleman this actor is. I've never seen Big Little Lies but now I will definitely watch it....
This interviewer seems too star struck, it's a little cringe-worthy. I'm not normally into blondes but Alexander is truly gorgeous!
He slayed his role in Big Little Lies. Outstanding character development! Incredible actor. ❤
All the actors were fucking AMAZING!!
It’s not real he is a actor 😂😂🙈🙈
The interviewer is great. Many thoughtful questions and good interactions with Alex.
I like that he keeps wearing the same shirts over and again for interviews like this. Kinda shows his lack of affectation.
why did i expect him to start speaking in a British accent???
He did it!! What an Amazing actor🤗🤗😍😍
He is really fantastic. I love what he says. He seems intelligent and laid back. Thanks for posting. :)
He is amazingly handsome and seems very nice with a great sense of humour-it is a pleasure to watch him on interviews or silver screen. My huge celebrity crush since I saw him on "True blood"
Omg so hot!😳
Great interview! Great questions. Really got to understand more about Alec's process on acting and behing the scene stuff about the show. And Alec's so chill, and has a cheeky sense of humor. The interviewer is really comfortable. Nice job!

He's an amazing actor and he Portrayed his character so well that we felt it was real. Guys that's the art and his chemistry with Nichole was off the charts. Lots of love.......
He was fantastic in this role and I hope he wins the Emmy
I love that we have already seen Perry's twin sister in the flesh. Feel free to thank me after googling him in drag at the Diary of a Teenage Girl première.
He was great in this show, glad to hear what he thought about it
He is calm, humble, charming ❤️❤️❤️❤️
such good questions!!!
Nicole and Alex. Their performances were perfection. I hope they both receive an Emmy.
I feel that he always plays that type of character..
They need to put him on Game Of Thrones idc who

The comments, half praising the interviewer the other half calling her the worst. That's TH-cam for you.
He played a role.That isn't who he is, know the difference.
Very rare that they spell his last name correctly, with an Å.
ITS SO INSULTING THE NEXT SEASON IS IN 2019, I CANNOT WAIT THAT LONG 😩😭
Ahh! The interview is amazing! I like the simplicity and the unstructured. Thank you!!
He is so damn cute!
She is a good interviewer in terms of eloquence and creating a comfortable atmosphere but I feel like the questions were very similar and could have been more diverse.
True Blood, Tarzan, BLL - three shades of yummy!
Alexander lookin' real good
I was in an abusive relationship with a narcissist at the time the show first aired. Watching Skarsgard was painful, scary and almost hurt physically. Which proves how brilliant he was. I freed myself three years ago and I'm thinking of re-watching it now to see my reaction to him today. I'm still a little bit scared of possibly triggering some trauma response. On the side note - the interviewer is fantastic. Saw her with the Outlander cast - she's doing great job creating safe relaxed space for good conversation. Bravo.
Really enjoyed this interview.. she made it interesting and relevant. All about the acting.knowing the preparation and the process of his fantastic acting abilities was a rare insight in most of actors interviews.. fabulous interviewer. Thank you for allowing a fan to appreciate his acting skills rather than lusting after a character.
This was really enjoyable :)
This interview woman is ADORABLE 💛
Thanks for your love and support ❤️ how long have you been a fan?
If you want a brilliant bad guy, cast the loveliest actor around. They play bad best.
I'm thinking of the character he plays on Big Little Lies...im seeing the jean shirt he is wearing and all I can think about is him playing Randall Flagg.
Beautiful man
Just finished this show today and I kid you not, I started screaming when they revealed who it was and what happened. I could not believe I didn't predict it. Absolutely incredible show. Goosebumps everywhere.
