About me

View profile
The "Renaissance Man" of Nordic Cinema. With over 100 productions in front of the camera and 20 behind it, I bring a unique "double-life" to every set. Background includes: PhD in Medicine/Biochemistry, 8 years as Special Forces Officer, and Denmarks first Astronaut Candidate. I have led four biotech companies as CEO and non-profit foundation Chairman. Worked at the highest levels of politics and law. From taming and breeding sharks to handling acute emergencies in hospitals and death at the morgue, my VERY unique real-life experiences provide a level of authenticity that is rare in the industry. University master level in IT, robotics and laboratory work (non-acting C.V. upon request)
Full-time actor since 2021

Recent Success & Elite Collaborations

My last three productions were with Oscar, Golden Globe, and Palme d'Or winning/nominated directors:

  • The Girl with the Needle (Magnus von Horn) – Palme d'Or & Oscar Nominee.

  • Copenhagen Cowboy (Nicolas Winding Refn) – Netflix
 
  • Confidential Project (2026) for a multi-Oscar winning US director.

 ​These directors have called me "one-take-wonder", "black horse", "perfect", and "wonderful to work with". Filming the first days of dialogue in all of the above. Because of my extensive work behind the camera as a director, writer, tactical consultant and specialized casting director, I have a deep understanding of technical needs and am easy to direct.

Training & Physical Commitment

I am known for going to extremes for a role, including specialized training and significant weight changes, while always prioritizing a safe, collaborative, and humorous set environment. I have trained in masterclasses with top-tier casting directors including Julie Schubert, Debbie McWilliams, Frank Moiselle, Iris Baumüller, Tanja Grunwald, Anja Dihrberg-Siebler,  Jemima WcWilliams, Lana Veenker, Nancy Bishop and Lucinda Syson
