Thanks Santress! I’ve enjoyed his styling this past week for the most part. I watched his appearance on Fallon last night and he’s definitely learned the art of late night interviews... how to be entertaining in a short period of time while still plugging what you need to plug.

I’m hoping we’ll see him at the Met Gala. I’m looking forward to the interpretations of the camp theme. If he goes, I wish he’d do something to embrace the theme since he’s been expanding his fashion horizons lately, but the men typically don’t, so I’m not holding my breath. I am hoping for an appearance though, wearing whatever he ends up wearing.

At this point I'm expecting him to be at the Met Gala and will be disappointed if he's not.

That looks like TKT's director, Dan Krauss.
Alex does love that ugly sweater. :smile:

A couple more reviews for TKT:
" Those familiar with this story won’t find any novel twists here, but Krauss astutely conveys the literal and moral quagmires produced by such military situations. In that cause, he’s aided by an increasingly disillusioned, confused, and terrified Wolff, and an intensely menacing Skarsgård, who — flashing spiteful smiles beneath a ’70s-era mustache, and exuding a relaxed confidence that belies his coiled-spring viciousness — proves that wickedness sometimes comes in friendly fatherly packages."
https://variety.com/2019/film/reviews/the-kill-team-review-1203201200/

" As envisioned by Skarsgård, Deeks is the type of leader to speak so softly that you have to lean in to hear him, to shower praise and attention on his chosen favorites, and to ink skull tattoos on his shins to show off the number of kills he’s acquired while on multiple tours. While he’s a more of a mystery in the documentary, Skarsgård gives him a different kind of ominous edge — a quiet demeanor and a scowling poker face that makes it almost impossible to figure out what he’s thinking."

Thanks, Buckeye.
The Kill Team is getting rave reviews and Alex is really getting raves as critics think he does a fantastic job.

From Awards Circuit:
“Alexander Skarsgard and Nat Wolff are at their absolute best here. The duo are tasked with playing parts they’ve never tackled before, both of which they ace. Skarsgard mixes charisma and sociopathic tendencies in a hypnotic turn that stuns. Fervently aware of his malicious intent, but at the same time, completely believe why his soldiers would unabashedly follow him. He’s tremendous here.”
And
“There’s so much to love about ‘The Kill Team’. Riveting in its intensity as well as a tremendous showcase for Skarsgard and Wolff, this is the best Tribeca has put forward so far in 2019.”

From Harper's Bazaar Brasil:

ALEXANDER SKARSGÅRD REVEALS PLANS TO DIRECT FILMS
The Actor talks to Bazaar during the Tribeca festival in New York

alexander-skarsgard-708x1024.jpg


By Miriam Spritzer

Alexander Skarsgård is one of the biggest names in Hollywood right now. The Swedish actor has garnered the attention of fans worldwide for playing leading characters in popular series such as "True Blood" and "Big Little Lies" - the latter earned him some of the top Emmy, SAG and Golden Globe awards in the category of supporting actor .

His recognition is not just within the industry. This week, at the premiere of his film "The Kill Team" during the Tribeca Film Festival in New York, Alexander was surprised by the STARmeter Fan Favorite award from the IMDb. The database portal rewards those actors who are the most clicked by the fans.

"The Kill Team" is based on an award-winning documentary that debuted at the festival in 2013 about the United States' controversial action in Afghanistan. In the film version, Skarsgård plays the leader of a group of American soldiers alongside Nat Wolff .

At the film's premiere we talked to Alexander about his participation in the Tribeca Film Festival and his future plans to work as a director.

Harper's Bazaar Brasil: You have worked in many international and independent films. How is it for you today to attend the Tribeca Film Festival?

Alex: It's very meaningful to me. It's my favorite movie festival. I live in New York, so I can walk here. It's very good, I feel at home.

HBB: Have you ever been to the festival before?

Alex: In fact, I already participated fifteen years ago with a short film that I directed. Tribeca was the first festival that we were accepted at. It was the first and so far the only film that I directed. I still lived in Sweden at that time, and was starting to work as an actor, I was unknown. Me and my friend, who helped in the movie, were very excited to travel to New York bringing our short film. The curators and festival staff were great with us. I love this festival, Tribeca has a special meaning for me.

HBB: Are you thinking of moving further towards the direction?

Alex: I directed only an eight-minute movie a thousand years ago. At that time I wanted to direct more, I was focused on that for a second. And there began to appear many opportunities as an actor and I ended up following that wave. I do not know, it would be interesting to have this experience again. That question made me wonder, what happened to my directing career? I do not know what happened. Should I have been a director all this time? (laughs)

HBB: I hope you have not created an existential crisis, after all you are having an incredible career as an actor.

Alex: I'm having a really cool time in my career, there are lots of things coming up for me to play and I'm enjoying it. But of course, if I find some project, read some script that I feel I should direct, which is a story I want to tell, I'll probably try. I have not given up on my director side yet.

Alex and Siggi look good.
I know that Alex's shoes are higher, and Siggi's shoes are basically flat, but Alex appears to be much taller than Siggi in a few of the pics, which is weird, since Siggi is the taller one.

Sounds like he has some roles we haven't heard about yet. Cool.

That's how I'm interpreting it. I've been presuming that even though we've not heard of a new role since he finished GvK, or even since that role was announced, that's he's got scripts that he's looking at.
