Hey! You forgot my favorite, he starred in a Netflix series called River! It was amazing and he was outstanding, I've rewatched it multiple times because of him.
He always gives a good performance, not matter what kind of movie/ tv series he is in. Actually, all the Skarsgards are pretty good at playing characters that are a bit crazy.
Stellan didn't play a psychotic killer in "The Simple-Minded Murderer" but a very good-hearted and kind young man who is hare-lipped (and therefore has a speech impediment) and gets fed up with seeing an evil rich and powerful man (who is also a Nazi) tormenting everyone around him and ruining the lives of all those the young man loves. Probably the best Swedish film ever made, a masterpiece.
When I first read the name Skarsgård, I was 10 back in 1999 when I saw Stellan in Deep Blue Sea. Then I forgot for 18 years. Until I heard of someone named Bill Skarsgård playing Pennywise in IT. Skarsgård... wait minute.... there was this actor in deep blue sea named Skarsgård... oh, it's the one who played Bill Turner in pirates of the Caribbean? Oh okay...I knew he looked familiar...yes! I saw him in CINDERELLA too!! But wait....HOLY SHIT, THIS IS BILL SKARSGÅRD'S DAD?!? Wait, there was this guy named Skarsgård in VIKINGS....Holy shit, these two are his sons?! *finds out that Stellan Skarsgård has 8 kids, 4 of his adult sons are all actors* ..... OOOOHHH I SEE 😳 . All the pieces are coming together now. May they take over Hollywood!!! Seriously, this family is so badass🤘😂
Amazing actor. Love it! It has piqued my interest since 1990 in The Hunt for Red October. He can raise the level of any character, however insignificant he represents. Any work in which I see that he is present, I am sure to at least witness great performances. The more focused on his character, the better the content. Too bad they didn't mention TV show RIVER - 2015...10/10
I can see Alexander and Bill with the faces he made on these different scenes. Their brother, whom I know first amongst the family was great on "Vikings" too. Forgot his name tho
And this did not even show or mention "Jim & piraterna Blom". =) Stellan has had an absolutely formative role in my movie going experience. Good video! Thanks!
'If he comes knocking on your door in the middle of the night you don't know wether to let him in or call the police'. Hello!! If Stellan come knocking on my door in the middle of the night I'm very certain which one I would do 😍
He’s in the same ballpark as Cliff Curtis, a talented actor who too often just takes thankless roles in blockbusters. Both deserve to have far more promenant roles in movies.

His performance in Chernobyl might just be his best. It was astounding
yeah I agree, his performance in Chernobyl is amazing
Also Cerdic in King Arthur
Made me a fan
well, now there's his role as Luthen in Andor to compete with that
The scene where he goes ballistic over the telephone… I could watch that over and over again 😂😂
His performance in Andor is so freaking captivating, you’re hanging on every word he says!
He and Tony Gilroy made easily the best Star Wars character ever.
Stellan is a total hunk! Why are all the Skarsgårds so boss!?!
They're well raised and well adjusted, increasingly rare traits in this world
Yes, Stellan was the first actor to play Sweden's version of James Bond.

Loooooove River
Yup River was awesome I watched it twice too. Better each time!
@@alexrussell8039 I heard Netflix is pulling it off in November and the DVD's are only in region 2! :'-(
@@braymax best we get a final binge in then!! 😀
Exactly! "River" was a great show!
I´ve been in love with this man since the end of the 80´s, when I saw him in a TV-interview.

King Arthur performance for me is the best, that saxon warlord character was incredibly good.
Just watched “River”, blown away by his acting. So good... He has plenty of charisma for leading man parts...

Gustaf
He is a great actor.
Great voice too
He also nailed it in Dune as The Baron.
Yes sir, he is literally everybody in everything.... he's just in so many films!
I adore him so much it’s INSANE
So so in love with Alexander Skarsgard specially from his Trueblood days. Love him to death! Absolutely handsome and plus a great actor.
And this did not even show or mention "Jim & piraterna Blom". =)

Brilliant actor. A ton of range.

"In order of Disapearance": Another Masterpiece with him.

I knew the guy from Pirates of the Caribbean but the best is Boris Scherbina. Absolutely phenomenal
Check out *River* British mini-series from 2015. :)

I had no idea he was swedish lol, such a great actor
No mention of Ronin? Just a one second clip of ‘Gregor’?
I watched the Ox recently and really liked it. Max Von Sydow was in it too and a lady named Ewa Froling who was quite pretty.
I am in love with him. Err I mean his acting.
Muito bonito Stellan ❤🥰🇧🇷
never black or white, morally grey area. spot on man.. and his perforamnce in Andor is bloody epic - th-cam.com/video/GQMDmb3mOY8/w-d-xo.html
I don’t know how I missed that he played Bootstrap.
Bootstrap Bill
His scenes were awsome
His career started in Sweden, and you totally missed his most important role: Carl Hamilton.
He’s really good in Cinderella 2015 also
great actor
*L E G E N D.*
*The best of the best.*
great, now im gonna have to watch all of that.
I see were his children get their good looks from.
I lovee him soooo much😍🤌🏻
"Skarsgard."
...okay. Here we go again. Skars-gourd. Pronounce it "gourd".
There you go, not that hard.
Most Americans cannot pronounce " å ".
Then again, most non-english-native Europeans cannot do a simple thing as "th" and make it "ze/se/de" .
Best regards.

Sure they can. The pronunciation of “å” is pretty much equivalent to the pronunciation of the “a” in “wall”.

Watch this👆
@@annoyingbananana In Brazil the "th" tends to become "f". It was damn hard to learn it properly.
Wasn't he in the American version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo?
time's up old man.
I was in toilet😂😂
Same here dude
Nymphomaniac was just plain terrible, but his work stands for itself.
Bootstrap Bill Turner.
Se pronuncia “estelan eskargoard” , no “ estelar eskargard” por que en sueco la å es “oa“ 😊😅
And now he has a new classic character, Luthen Rael in Andor.
1:01 "A psychotic killer"?! Have you even seen the movie?😅
Lo amo
Sou fã.
Just watch "The democratic Terrorist". A forgotten gem!
Hail Stellan!
YASS skarsgard
Bombi bitt och jag is filmed near my house
