More quotes by Mads Mikkelsen
I'm one of the actors who really enjoys working with kids and animals, which is always a no go. There's something beautiful about it because you tend to forget yourself, as an actor.
Mads Mikkelsen
All actors have to believe that our characters have a point that makes sense. Hopefully, they make sense to the crowd watching it, but at least he has to make sense in his own mind, in his own universe.
Mads Mikkelsen
Yeah, I do all the stuff I can. Let’s be frank, if you are in an action film, you are not in it for the characters, you are in it for the action – the stunts. If they take that away from you, it’s a sad story. Ha ha! I have damaged everything: knees, elbows, ribs. But I’m an old gymnast. I know how to survive.
Mads Mikkelsen
I’m an Adidas guy who walks around in sports gear all the time because there’s always a ball right next to me somewhere. I do a lot of sports but I do enjoy wearing a lot of suits. I have quite a few suits that I really enjoy wearing but, unlike Hannibal, I like wearing them only at special occasions.
Mads Mikkelsen
I have a three-piece suit. I’m an art collector. I have a funny accent. So I’m probably the killer.
Mads Mikkelsen
I'd just love to see the next Star Wars films when they come out because I'm very into the whole universe and the stories. So they're always rewarding.
Mads Mikkelsen
I was a very focused kid. I always had this crazy lifestyle... billions of jobs, two hours of gymnastics every day, handball, anything with a ball, really. I must have had ADHD or something. I was very energetic, and very small. I didn't start growing until the last year of high school.
Mads Mikkelsen
II know a little about Greek mythology. It's not that far away from the Nordic mythology.
Mads Mikkelsen
If you're playing the bad guy, you have to find what you like about them.
Mads Mikkelsen
Actors are very good at not revealing anything, so they're safe.
Mads Mikkelsen
I became a dancer late and an actor late.
Mads Mikkelsen
I'm a big fan of film for one reason: because it is visual.
Mads Mikkelsen
Danish film is spreading in a fantastic way.
Mads Mikkelsen
Everybody wants a big crowd. You get amazed sometimes with certain things that millions of people are watching and you go, Serious?! Really?! And then, there are things that you really, really enjoy and not a lot of people are watching. It's very, very hard to predict how it works.
Mads Mikkelsen
The physicality of any character is always split up into fast, slow, high energy, low energy, what kind of personality he has. So that's where the physicality comes in. And flying through the air is just something you have to do if they ask you.
Mads Mikkelsen
I choose work with the people I like to work with.
Mads Mikkelsen
I'm in a very lucky position. You have to remember that 95 percent of all actors aren't working. I'm actually able to go to France and work. It's a situation I couldn't have dreamt up.
Mads Mikkelsen
I like to stay home with my family.
Mads Mikkelsen
I'm very dedicated to the things I do.
Mads Mikkelsen
If you're not bruised up, then you're not doing an action film in a real way.
