More quotes by Mads Mikkelsen
I'm terrified about psychic people who have their little shops.
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
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 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
If you're not bruised up, then you're not doing an action film in a real way.
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
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
I became a dancer late and an actor late.
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
Danish film is spreading in a fantastic way.
Mads Mikkelsen
I ask a million questions, and I insist on having answers. I think that is what we have to do. I have to know what the director wants. Some are very much in their head, and I need to force it out of them. I just can't play around for eight hours and see if something happens.
Mads Mikkelsen
I choose work with the people I like to work with.
Mads Mikkelsen
I'm a big fan of film for one reason: because it is visual.
Mads Mikkelsen
I take my work enormously seriously. When I do something, it has to feel right. Everything has to be right. I’m not ambitious about my career, but I am ambitious with each job. I can be fairly annoying to work with. No compromises, let’s put it this way. Compromises are from hell.
Mads Mikkelsen
One thing I can say about the French language is that no one in the world loves their language as much as they do.
Mads Mikkelsen
When you do a TV show, there's always the fear that it will become tired and you'll know exactly what's going to happen.
Mads Mikkelsen
If you're playing the bad guy, you have to find what you like about them.
Mads Mikkelsen
I like to stay home with my family.
Mads Mikkelsen
II know a little about Greek mythology. It's not that far away from the Nordic mythology.
