The Duffer Brothers have a new series on Netflix, Stranger Things, which is getting a lot of good press, reviews, etc. They have a long interview in the HR and Alex gets a little mention:
Ross: Our friend, Zal Batmanglij, I always pronounce his name wrong, who did The East and stuff, he's got The OA coming out out in December. … He's our generation, and we talk to him all the time. We have a parallel career paths, because he was on Wayward, he did a Skarsgard movie, it's very weird.
Matt: He did! His first movie was an Alexander Skarsgard movie, then he ended up on Wayward somehow. Eventually I just emailed him, it's like, "We have to meet."
Ross: Within a week, we both sell these Netflix shows. What we've been talking with him about a lot is that he saw the same thing, which is he's getting frustrated with getting blocked, and how narrow filmmaking has become, like the big theatrical releases. Then we're starting to see that, "Oh wait, we have these original stories we want to tell and there's this opportunity to tell it on television, also, to play around with form a little bit."

OT but I'm watching Stranger Things and it's great, anyone who liked the feel of Stand By Me will like it, it has a very retro vibe and lots of weirdness - the young actors are brilliant. With that and Braindead on CBS, my viewing is taking a turn for the original and quirky.

I see the era of Ninja Skars is upon us. Can't blame him.

He said "in a couple of weeks" a few weeks ago. He made it sound like he was going right after Tarzan PR finished. I was just curious.

I thought he'd said a couple of times, during the promo tour, that he was going right after the final pr stuff in Brazil. But it's possible that it did get delayed/canceled.
But I think that if he doesn't do this one that he'll do another Greenpeace trip.

I'm glad to see him at a Hammarby game, I don't think he went to one last year.
I like this manip of Bajen Tarzan:

New trailer for War on Everyone:

Exclusive first-look at War On Everyone
Here's an exclusive look at the new trailer for "War On Everyone" – the new badass buddy cop film starring Alexander Skarsgard and Michael Pena.

If the film's as funny as this trailer, it'll be well worth a watch when it hits cinemas in October.

 
Thanks Santress!
Fares!
And Alex is sporting his nerdy professor look. Interesting choice for WOW.
I like the new WOE trailer. I don't have much hope for it being shown in the States, though.


The last I heard is that it has a US distributer and the original published release date of October was a mistake. No solid date given for a release date but best guess was early next year. I love this new trailer.
