Peter Stormare movies

With his fluency in English and his skill for mimicking accents, he has become much in demand in Hollywood productions, where he usually plays Europeans of various nationalities and often of dubious morality. Many of Stormares characters are highly eccentric.BiographyEarly lifeStormare was born in Arbrå, Hälsingland, Sweden as Peter Storm, but changed his name when he discovered he shared it with a senior student at the acting academy. His original choice of name, Retep Mrots (his own name spelled backwards), was rejected.

Just like storm (a word which means the same in Swedish as in English), "stormare" is a Swedish word, meaning "stormer".
Stormare began his career with the Swedish Royal Dramatic Theatre, to which he belonged for eleven years. In 1990 he took a leading position (Associate Artistic Director) at the Tokyo Globe Theatre and made a name for himself through various Shakespeare performances including Hamlet. Three years later, he went to New York and mainly took part there in English language productions. In Sweden, he has worked with Ingmar Bergman, by whom he was apparently discovered. He has also played Carl Hamilton, a fictional Swedish secret agent similar to James Bond.He was critically praised for his role as a quiet and ruthless villain (with Steve Buscemi) in Fargo (1996), and later played a sleazy, unlicensed "eye doctor" ("Solomon Eddie") in Minority Report. He portrayed Dieter Stark in the 1997 film The Lost World: Jurassic Park.
