Curiosidades de Alicia Vikander

A trained ballet dancer. She studied ballet at the Royal Swedish Ballet School, but decided to pursue acting instead of ballet, following few injuries and subsequent foot and back surgeries.

One of her favorite experiences from the production of 'Anna Karenina' was the filming that took place in the countryside outside of St. Petersburg, Russia. The temperatures dipped to -40 °C, and she stayed in a cabin for five days that didn't have hot water and only had benches instead of beds.

The directors she dreams to work with are Lars von Trier, Terrence Malick and Quentin Tarantino.

She was chosen for her role in 'A Royal Affair' despite not speaking Danish, because they felt she was perfect to give life to the Queen Caroline Mathilde. She had to spend two months studying this language to correctly interpret this character.

Her favorite actresses are Marion Cotillard, Isabelle Huppert and Jennifer Lawrence.

Vikander began to cry at a Starbucks when she thought she would make her Hollywood debut as the star of 'Snow White and the Huntsman' role that finally played Kristen Stewart.
