By the accounts of Russians, his accent and mannerisms are dead on. He was amazing in the role, but someone who screams in posts probably can’t understand subtlety. In any other year, he would have won, but Daniel Day-Lewis is a phenomenal actor.
Viggo is so talented, and watching his face and eyes in a movie like this where so much is said without speaking, you need some intelligence to understand it. He is getting better all the time.
I agree Viggo is incredibly talented. I heard the same, that his accent in Eastern Promises was dead on. Plus it was much of his research that influenced many revisions to the script.
The beard is surely for a role. I’m just wondering who the girl is, she was sitting next to him inside. I thought for sure he would have brought his son…
wtf???!!!
WE ARE VERY PROVE OF YOU IN DENMARK ;D..
The young lady with him is his niece Sydney.
Why is Yes U R yelling?/
if you don;t like his acting then don;t watch Viggo’s films
this man can act.. he has talent in his pinky finger alone which can outshine other actors in La La Land..
yeah the beard does not suit him but I am sure it will be off soon
but he sure does ROCK!!!!!
Viggo looks so hot this way!
I love Viggo….I loved him in Lord of the Rings, i loved him in History of Violence and now in Eastern Promises…he is a great actor, and those blue eyes are mesmerizing
I loved him in the lord of the rings. and no he dosn’t eat babies!
Kate why do u question him?! PEACE OUT!
Who is that gorgeous girl he took with him - someone mentioned his niece? What’s the story there?
I guess he broke up ages ago from Lola Schnabel….he could say hi to her dad there though…..
HE IS SOOO CUTE. WHEN I GOT LORD OF THE RINGS I SAW IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. I LOVE HIM. HE ROCKS. WAS HE GOOD IN A HISTORY OF VIOLENCE OR NOT. I NEED OPINIONS PLEASE.
WHATS UP MOON. I HEAR ABOUT HIS NIECE TO.
hi moon!
:) do dat kirby dance! (>”)> <(”")>
Viggo is filming amovie in New Mexico called Appaloosa, which is why he has the beard. I didn’t think he’d win the Oscar for this performance, although it was brilliant. He is one of the finest actors working right now. He is unique, intelligent and extremely diverse. He is one of the few people in movies who I would love to meet, because there is nothing artificial about this man. He is a real man and stunning to look at.
Hey if you guys don’t want him, more Viggo for me.
Appaloosa is a western that was directed by Ed Harris. It wrapped awhile ago. Vigo’s beard may or may not be from the film. But I do suspect
that his long waste coat was a influence from having worked on the film in that period. The man has class, taste, style all on top of real talent.
By the way his jacket is dark, dark green. Look close. But over all it
reads as black. Subtle & sexy.
According to photo captions in news outlets , the (very pretty) girl is his niece Sydney. Don’t know if she is daughter of a brother or sister but she has the same chin as Viggo! What a cool uncle.
The full grey-toned beard and the long hair are for the film “The Road” (also with Charlize Theron and Robert Duvall), whose filming will begin tomorrow, 02/27. Too bad that beard hides so much of him :(
Viggo deserved this nomination so much, although it is a pity that the film was ignored. Viggo is a brilliant actor, and only he could nail that part!
If it wouldn’t been for Daniel Day-Lewis, and the fact that Viggo once declined an invitation to join the Academy as a full member, I guess he would have won. The faces of the other non-winers froze when Daniel was announced, but Viggo’s lighted up.
Viggo’s next film that will come to the screen should be “Good”, a blond haired, clean shaven, bespectacled German professor. I wonder how he dealt with that language.
Viggo, you are one fantastic actor, fascinating as well. and of course gorgeous
:O omg!
wtf???!!!!
I love him he was fantastic on Lord of the Rings and A history of violence.
He is such a gerat actor and a talented artist.
Thank you Teri! I’ve been searching all over for who the little girl with him at the Oscar’s was. I thought’ maybe she was a daughter. But a niece is close enough.
but anywone knows who is the blonde haired woman in red dress that arrived with him and sydney ????????
He is sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hoooooooooooooooooooooooot!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE U VIGGO!!
