Swedish actor Peter Stormare is back on the American scene after some hiatus. According to Entertainment Weekly he is to star in the popular TV-show "Weeds", depicting a hot-tempered German chef. Stormare is no stranger to playing other nationalities, acting as a Russian astronaut in the blockbuster "Armageddon" and an Israeli security expert on one episode of "Entourage".
Stormare is one the more famous Swedes to star in American TV and movies of the past fifteen years, and as mentioned Swedish media always love to report on Swedish success in the US. The largest happening involving Peter Stormare was probably when he spoke (cursed) a few words of Swedish in "Jurassic Park 2", a big moment for our small country that not go many by. The same happened when Alexander Skarsgård. starring as Scandinavian vampire Eric in "True Blood", spoke Swedish on a number episodes. Exotic to Americans, patriotic to Swedes.
