Watch out, Baldwin brothers: The Skarsgard family of actors is on the scene and ready to blow you out of the water. The Swedish band of brothers is led by their father, Stellan, a veteran actor. Though he began his career in his native land, Stellan shifted to Hollywood in the mid-'80s, and has been performing complex, deeply human roles ever since.
Though he claims to have no hand in it, four of Stellan's eight children are currently lighting up big and small screens in the United States. Perhaps youve heard of Alexander Skarsgard of True Blood and Big Little Lies fame, or Bill Skarsgard, who scared the pants off all of us with his truly unnerving portrayal of Pennywise in It?Though not yet household names, brothers Gustav and Valter are working their way up the Hollywood chain, performing in movies and series that all seem to have something in common - they are dark and creepy, sometimes even disturbing.
The whole Skarsgard clan seems to have a penchant for flicks that are moody and feature supernatural or horror elements. Playing villains seems to be the family business, and with their soulful eyes and natural charisma, they sure do it well.
