- Alexander Skarsgard chats with Gold Derby editor Rob Licuria about 'Big Little Lies' saying: 'Those were some of the toughest days on set I have ever experienced.' Skarsgard plays Perry, the conflicted and abusive husband to Celeste (Nicole Kidman), one of the women at the center of the story alongside Reese Witherspoon, Shailene Woodley and Laura Dern. “Big Little Lies” is the ambitious HBO limited series written by legendary TV creator David E. Kelley and directed by Jean-Marc Vallée, based on the novel by Australian author Liane Moriarty.

I love how he brings up the fact that Perry "isn´t the typical abuser". In fact, many abusers are charming, successful, goodlooking and can even portray the image of being the perfect partner and/or parent. Many of them do not fall into the "typical abuser" category. You can never tell if anyone is an abuser just by looking at them or knowing their superficial life story. Often, abusers reserve their abusive side for their partner only, while treating other people much better.
That is why stories who don't fuel dumb generalization are really good.
A lot of abuse is exactly like this, which is why so many women that are abused don’t leave. Because it’s not abuse 24/7. There’s many wonderful times in an abusive relationship where the abuse is not going on. But then it does and it’s very confusing for many people experiencing it because of how bipolar these relationships can be. They say things like “well he isn’t always like this” etc...The happiest of highs to the lowest of low.
That is why one should ever take sides in a breakup because no one ever knows what really goes on behind closed doors
yes!! It kind of confused me... because when I watched the show for the first time, the realistic depiction of domestic violence is what impressed me so much. The cycle of abuse, the "power switch" after he had hit her, the shame, how he's torn... its all actually picture perfect abuser blue print. If abusers were just black and white a lot more people would leave them. But it's the rosy perfection that comes after an abusive episode that grows on people like a drug, and fuels the inability to leave. The fact that abusers hate themselves for what they did, how they often cry afterwards and apologize profusely, forgiveness, especially for someone who's being abused, comes so naturally. Because abusers are human. So yes. Humanising Perry was brilliant... its kind of weird they phrased it as "not the typical abuser" here. Because the fact that he's just that, the typical abuser, is kind of the point, and Im pretty sure written like that on purpose. I guess they couldve meant not the typical abuser as shown in media?
@@annabanabanana I did get out. Taught my 3 daughters not to take it, to stand up and leave if they have to. Always get help. I divorced their dad because I didn't want them to think that was normal. I didn't want them to think it was ok to be treated like that.
What I love more than Alex's shows/movies are his interviews. He talks with so much dept and also always to the point answers which makes lot of sense.
Everytime he would come on the screen, I would get SO TENSED. He did an amazing job at scaring me, confusing me and pissing me off.
I was hooked on the show, all of the actors were absolutely amazing but Alex gave a bone chilling performance!
He was excellent in Big Little Lies. Such a despicable character but he was able to give him many layers. I would LOVE to see him recognized for his work. I don't think any of the other actors in his category gave a better performance than he did.
He scared me each time he appeared on the screen and I love him usually
He was a fantastic and layered character. Played so well by the actor. Completely believable and balanced our by that female counsellor who called his behaviour what it was, violence. Not passion.
I love him. I simply love this man. He's so well-spoken and smart
Alex and Nicole both deserve an Emmy for their roles in Big Little Lies.
D Goley lol they got it!!
I have never seen a better performance put on by Nicole and Alex. Great, great actors. I am still blown away by their performances.
you can't dislike this. he's just so great.
Notice how he said he didn't care to make Perry likable. I love this. Many actors who portray abusers nowadays defend their characters or say they want people to like them or relate to them, but we *aren't* supposed to like or relate to an abuser. We should see them as complex and layered, sure, but like them overall? No. I truly love Alex for this. Also Jean Marc Vallee framed Perry so carefully. We never get close ups of him unless he's out of focus or from a jarring angle. We're not meant to like him or relate to him (which is what close ups serve).
Hey thanks for ur comment I enjoyed reading the part about the close ups
He is really talented. The fact he is a good looking guy, who ppl love from his previous roles, and can pull out really dark character that viewers will def not like.... that is a great actor!
Playing diverse roles and doing them well! Well played!
He always chooses his words cautiously
Wouldn’t you? He doesn’t want some controversy LOL.
But he’s also Swedish and English isn’t his first language (I think) so that may also be why
Thats the Scandinavian cadence when speaking english
@@ericsommers526 they start learning English in elementary school. Have nothing do to with been his second language and more with been thoughtful.
True!❤
probably because English is not his first language
Alexander Skarsgård for the Emmy win!!!
So true! It is well-deserved!
He won
HE IS A GREAT ACTOR ,just saying from my heart, He is someone I'd love to have a conversation with about life and living life good.
Alexander you are ready to direct. You are great at portraying these characters !!! We need some cinema alla Fellini, Pasolini, Bergman or Trier.
Alex is so great! Definitely not just another pretty face, it would be so cool, if he gets nominated.
He and Nicole both won Emmys, Sags and Golden Globes for acting..
I love him. I have always loved him.
I would have liked to see perry/Nicole together in more scenes. I feel like the other couples got way more screen time, even though Nicole and Perry were the most interesting to see. I feel like even by the end of the season, his character wasn’t developed very well. Nobody knew anything about them together other than he was abusive.
I kind of disagree, the beginning you didn't even know about the abuse. An important part of their relationship was the hiding and pretending. They showed several times how lovely he was for her and the kids, and how he could change his behavior in seconds for the kids.
I saw the first series of Big Little Lies but why haven't we got the second one yet. I'm grumbling to my cable.
God I loved big little lies
Esse homem é um deus grego!
When was this on? What channel and time? Thanks
HBO
Generation Kill - great tv series!
why are we seeing the interviewer??? we're here to see ALEX
TRUE BLOOD WAS THE SHIT. Damn if I had a time machine

Has he hurt his forehead or am I not seeing right. Yes he is a Virgo and their usually perfectionists and that's why their usually great at their chosen profession.
I think it’s just lighting and reflection. His forehead is fine!😉
Yeah get a better internet connection when you’re interviewing a Skarsgard.

Why does he only play sad tortured men. Is there no joy in Sweden?
Good question!
Model from zoolander?
They are not my real family. I respect them but they should tell me the truth. We are from the same country
Here damage women
I hate him because of his characther...i prefer bill skarsgard
Mmmm... he actually is Pennywise, you know? Way better
It's called acting, Ann. How can you hate an actor for doing a terrific job of acting? Nonsense.
Awe it's just acting and creating a character you know so I hope you're just kidding....That's just how good he is besides being absolutely gorgeous on top of being an exceptionally kind human being...WOW!
