I love how his eyes widen when hes deep in thought or trying to be really expressive about something. He seems like quite the dork, but the kind you have to love.
I love that he's so sweet, down--to-earth, and sincere, without the Hollywood phoniness actors like to pull during interviews. I wish him great success in his acting career, I really do. Thank you, Mr. Skarsgard.
happily sighs deeply and heavily...he strikes me as a very intelligent person, not just because i love him, but the way he takes each question seriously and really thinks about each one...confident and yet humble...sighs again :-D
He's the most perfect man I've ever seen: not just the stunning exterior, but his personality too, he's always so kind to his fans and even to the paparazzi, he has great manners, plus he's so funny and intelligent at the same time. The most important, he's really talented and a wonderful actor. I didn't know I could have so beautiful feelings to someone before, I'm a pretty cold person, but he could melt even a stone :] LOVE YOU ALEX!!!
He sounds so sweet and sincere. Everytime he answers a question, he makes sure he mentions that persons name, even after every question by the same person! So sweet! :D And I love it when he said "I'm Scandinavian goddamnit" :D
Well, I'm reading the 5th book right now and my heart starts to beat harder every time Eric appears in it :D Love him. Alexander is a great choice for Eric.
omg he's beautiful. he truly will be around for a long time considering his talent and looks. he's unique.something you don't see everyday,even in hollywood.
i love both the character eric northman and alex. having read the books i can't wait to see him act it out. it's funny, i haven't watched a recent music video in over two years but after hearing he was in paparazzi with lady gaga (whom i'm not even interested in) couldn't help myself. its rewarding to find an actor both dedicated AND good looking. And it's great to see that he is a straight forward and genuinely cool guy. It's rewarding when fame hasn't gotten to people's heads.
I had no clue that he actually put on more of a Swedish accent when playing Eric. Even then, I was happy to find a Swedish actor with a less pronounced Sveedish accent.
Is it just me, or is he getting sexier as he gets older? Why is he not taken yet? Have you seen him in "Never be Mine" by the Swedish actress, Maria...? I will forever thank Alan Ball for choosing Alex to play Iceman on GenKill, and Eric on True Blood. Thank you, Alan!!!!!!!
wow! what a great interview his soo real & genuine like his really talkin to you, his not fake & seems soo happy & relaxed to answer the questions. I am a huge Bill/Stephen Moyer fan but dammnn Alex hotttt!!!!!
That was so adorable He seems like a very strait forward guy After watching a few interviews of him I think I'll get used to Eric's short hair.. That was great thx for uploading... True Blood Season 2 In Approximately 3 Days!! Who's Fanging Who?
I think I understand now why he's said in many interviews that he doesn't think that he's good looking. He says that because in Sweden he's just average but here in the US he's really really really really really ridiculously good looking plus he's got a great personality and talent.
i liked alexander before this interview, but after watching this interview, i think he´s really amazing! he´s not only good-looking, but also intelligent! :)
Generation Kill is a 7 part mini series about the first days of war in Irak. It's about a journalist who follows a group of soldiers and writes a book about his experience with them. I think it aired last year. You can find it on Netflix or probably online somewhere.
First time I saw him in 'Generation Kill' I thought to myself..."yummy". Now that I see him in TrueBlood, he's def in my top 1 (yes, I said 1)of sexiest men of my dreams. And the best part is he's not just great, unbelievably, amazing looking, he's also intelligent and down to earth (from what I've heard). ::SIGH:: We need more men like him in the US!!!
I agree it is so sweet the way he acknowledges the person who is asking the question. When he does that sexy eyebrow thing or smiles, I'm just gone! He even makes eye-rolling look sexy. He's so down-to-earth, intelligent, and so respectful and appreciative of his fans, is it any wonder he has so many? So, he loves being naked? We need to find a way to make this happen as much as possible, as soon as possible. Although, the last episode of True Blood was a great start! Love this perfect man!
"We love to be naked!" Got to be my favourite comment! Just noticed the cheeky eyebrow lifts, the eye flashes and the lopsided smiles! The naughty looks are just killing me. Alex definitly has a cheeky side. I'm loving Eric. I'm reading the books along with watching the series and I think Alex is doing a really great job with him. He's got him pretty close to what I imagined. He plays Erics light and dark sides very well.
He's been here a while but I read in a magazine that he had an accent coach to help him with his Mississippi accent for his upcoming movie Straw Dogs due out in 2011.
In the books Eric speaks 25 languages, or more. He learned english in the 70s at a community college. He is very diversified. :) Alexander is cool people and so down to earth. What Alan Ball needs to get right next season is to put him in the foreground.
i LOL too :) he's so relaxed and well mannered.they way he mentioned the fan's name though he's not with them makes us feel like he's talking to us one on one :) i love this man in person and of course the looks :)
Oh my, this man is a first class seducer.....he got me with those expressive eyes, raised eyebrow & killer smile, not to mention his voice & sense of humor. Wow!
It's so true...we're every where. U can't escape us lol. I wanna go back to Sweden and really see it...cuz I was only there for a day...what I saw was gorgeous though!
Alex father is also a well-known actor both in Sweden and in USA. is name is Stellan Skarskård is very famous in sweden, and alex brother Gustaf Skarskård has also been in some swedish movies.
I truly don't want to sound disrespectful, but I think most Americans are ignorant about the Swedish language and probably have never heard it spoken, only cheesy accents, mostly comedic. I know about Alex's father and you're probably correct about his time in US. He is obviously truly bilingual, which perhaps most Swedes are, so English is very natural. I do love him and enjoy hearing his voice in any language.
I LOVE the eye roll in the end :) It really shows what he thinks of the 'chick flick' type of movies and I like him for having more style than that! Go, Alex!
Stellan, his dad is a really really good actor too. Check Mamma Mia and Pirates movies, they kind of look alike. And he has a bunch of good looking brothers as well.
Heh, that's how I raised my kids too. There's no need to shout to command authority. Same with dealing with people in general........ You get far more accomplished by speaking calmly about what you want, than yelling at someone.
Wow. He is the total opposite of Erick. Erick was always gorgeous to me but I never really saw him like that because I was crushing on Bill. Then when I saw the second season I started to see a different side of him and saw that he wasn't always the bad boy I thought he was. And he really does care. Erick's confidence is what makes him so hot.
this is the first time I see an intervie with him... and now I love him even more, he really seems to be cool, funny, laid back guy... and it is sooo sweet how he allways says the persons name when he is answering their question... and DAMN he is smoking! "I'm a skandinavian goddamn it, we love to be naked!" hahaha "I don't mind it at all, nudity is great!" and that smile with it... man this guy is KILLING ME!
OOOOHHHHHHH MYYYYYYY....that man is so hot...even when he is not playing Eric Northman...Alexander Skarsgard....WOW...seems such a nice person...his eyes, his smile, his voice...love everything about the man...great interview..:)
He is the hottest vampire on True Blood! He is also the hottest Swedish actor I've ever come upon. I love that he is Swedish seeing as I have more Swedish in me than any other nationality. Watching this video, it seems that he is also very down to earth, which is a wonderful quality. I hope True Blood is around for a long time because he is such a wonderful actor and it doesn't hurt that he is so attractive!
wow...my name is Jenny..and when he said 'my name' I always fainted with all the butterflies that burst up from my stomach! ahsfhjaskld Omg, he's great, I love Eric's character, I love Eric just in general, and the guy behind him..oh boyy!
