I Used To Be A Chemical-engineering Student,

My Dad Was In The Swedish Armed Forces, He Was Always Reading Up On Different Weapons From The Americans And Soviets. When I Was A Kid, I Was In Bed Looking At His Books, Reading About The Red Army. So I Was Very Aware Of It. I Had An Interest In Military Matters Ever Since.

I Wanted To Become An Engineer, Or Get A Masters In Business. But I Had The Opportunity To Do Films When I Was About 25 And It Was A Great Way To Express Myself.

Movies Are A Powerful Medium. People Think You Are Your Character. I've Had Plenty Of People Who Think I'm Drago. They Don't Know About The Chemical Engineering Part Of My Personality. They Don't Know About The Geek Part Of My Personality.

Because He's A Character Who's Looking For His Own Identity, [he-man Is] An Interesting Role For An Actor.

At Least Once A Week, I Try To Have One Day Where I Have Nothing Planned So I Can Get Up And Just Go Back To Bed And Lay Around And Recharge My Batteries.
