Mads Mikkelsen

[viviane007]

I was searching a thread about this actor and because i don't find one, i decide to create one.

here is a small biography:

Mikkelsen was born in the Østerbro area of Copenhagen. After attending Århus Theatre School, he made his film debut in the movie Pusher. He has starred in popular Danish movies such as Flickering Lights , The Green Butchers ,his film debut Pusher, and Pusher II. Arguably, Mikkelsen's most famous role was as a cop in the Danish television series Unit One . He also starred in the Jerry Bruckheimer production of King Arthur in which he portrayed Tristan. He also played the villain Le Chiffre in the 21st James Bond film Casino Royale.

In 2008, Mikkelsen was invited by the Swiss watchmaker Swatch to Bregenz, Austria to present together with another James Bond Villain, Richard Kiel, the Swatch 007 Villain Collection. One of the 22 models of the Collection is dedicated to "Le Chiffre", the infamous gambler he played in Casino Royale.

Here are some pictures of him (all by madsonline and madsmikkelsen.org

Here are an article about this campaign:

Mads Mikkelsen to model H&M's menswear this autumn

Classic tailoring, jersey basics, knitwear and uniform-inspired pieces are key for this autumn's menswear collection from H&M. This is an exclusive collection in grey, white and black with accent colours in purple and blue. The model for this season's ad campaign is Mads Mikkelsen, one of Scandinavia's leading international actors.

'I've been wearing H&M clothes since I was a boy. H&M is a great brand and it is always exciting to see what they will come up with next. I was delighted when they asked me to be part of this autumn's campaign. H&M is innovative, fashionable and cool, and I am looking forward to our cooperation,' says Mads Mikkelsen.

Suits are single-breasted and slim fit for autumn, whilst shirts are plain, checked or striped. New colour ways have been introduced for shirts & v-neck sweaters these are purple, petrol, navy, moss green and wine. A heavy cotton coat worn with a fine cashmere scarf completes the tailored silhouette. A separate jacket, peacoat or a uniform-inspired jacket is combined with tailored trousers or jeans. These are worn layered with a grandad tee or shirt and a knitted sweater or sleeveless pullover in black.

'We are really pleased that Mads Mikkelsen will be modelling this season's menswear. He symbolises the pared-down and masculine look that much of this autumn's fashion at H&M is centred around,' says H&M's head of design Margareta van den Bosch.

Mads Mikkelsen To Play Hannibal Lecter In NBC Series ‘Hannibal’

Mads Mikkelsen, hot off winning the Best Actor prize at the Cannes Film Festival for The Hunt and scoring the villain role in Thor 2, has been cast as the title character in NBC’s upcoming drama series Hannibal. In his U.S. TV debut, Danish-born Mikkelsen will star opposite Hugh Dancy in the 13-episode series from Gaumont International Television, written and executive produced by Bryan Fuller and executive produced by Martha DeLaurentiis. The project is described as a contemporary thriller featuring the classic characters from Thomas Harris’ novel Red Dragon – FBI agent Will Graham (Dancy) and his mentor Dr. Hannibal Lecter (Mikkelsen) — who are re-introduced at the beginning of their budding relationship. Graham is a gifted criminal profiler on the hunt for a serial killer with the FBI who enlists the help of Dr. Lecter, one of the premier psychiatric minds in the country, with no clue about his darker side. The role was made famous by Anthony Hopkins, who won an Oscar for Silence Of The Lambs.

it's such a shame that European actors always get typecasted into villain roles here in America, but I am happy for him. I'm actually more excited to see what his role in The Necessary Death of Charlie Countryman will be like.
