He's also nominated for Best Supporting Actor at the BAFTAs and the Oscars for his role as a veteran filmmaker trying to make a comeback in Norwegian director Joachim Trier's family drama " Sentimental Value," which is up for nine Oscars, including Best Picture."

He moves freely from independent Scandinavian dramas to big-scale Hollywood franchises, starring as William "Bootstrap Bill" Turner in two "Pirates of the Caribbean" installments, astrophysicist Dr. Erik Selvig in four Marvel "Thor" movies, as well as the bloated Baron Harkonnen in the first two Denis Villeneuve "Dune" films."
