From an ancient vampire haunting shadowy corridors to a menacing otherworldly clown lurking in the sewers, Bill Skarsgård has become a defining figure in modern horror. With striking features and a remarkable talent for transforming into his roles, the Swedish actor brings chilling characters to life. His performances, ranging from the twisted clown Pennywise in It to the unsettling Keith in Barbarian, showcase his depth and unpredictability. Now, with his upcoming portrayal of Count Orlok in the Nosferatu directed by Robert Eggers, Skarsgård continues to build on his legacy, solidifying his place as one of the genre’s most exciting and versatile stars.
My favourite of the actor is Boy Kills World, Skarsgård where he played a deaf-mute protagonist who trained to become an assassin after his family’s murder.
