Von Sydow was one of the most famous Swedish actors of all time. After working with cult director Ingmar Bergman (1918-2007, “The Seventh Seal”), he was able to gain a foothold in Hollywood in the 1960s. The film star remained active into old age. He was most recently seen in “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” or as a three-eyed raven on “Game of Thrones”.

Von Sydow had his biggest roles especially in genre films that are cult today. He was seen in “The Exorcist” or played alongside Arnold Schwarzenegger (72) in “Conan the Barbarian”. The actor’s career spanned over 70 years, and he was seen in over 100 roles.
