Alexander Skarsgård picked as one of the 10 Best Chosen Actors for HBO via @Collider‘From Edie Falco to Michael K. Williams: 10 of the Best Actors Who Are Always Cast In HBO Shows & Movies’BY ILANA DAVIS of Collider.comPUBLISHED May 21, 2022ALEXANDER SKARSGÅRD: 5 Movies and ShowsAfter getting his start in Swedish television, Alexander Skarsgård spearheaded his relationship with HBO in the 2008 miniseries Generation Kill. In this role, Skarsgård practiced and perfected his American accent, which would come in handy as he went on to star in True Blood years later.Naturally, Skarsgård was skeptical about playing a vampire on television, but 2008-2014 were big years for the supernatural (ahem, Twilight), and the role paid off. The award-winning actor took home an Emmy for his role in HBO’s Big Little Lies, and most recently, he joined the cast of Succession as a young tech mogul bound to stir up trouble. It took some time for Skarsgård to break into American film and television, but if not for that first break on HBO, who knows if he had continued to try.Photos by HBO on Collider.com (my edit of Alex as Eric Northman in True Blood and the Succession promo still of Alex as Lukas by Macall B.
