De naam [http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001780/]Peter Stormare zal bij veel mensen geen belletje doen rinkelen, maar bij ons nerds en geeks wel. Deze held speelt in een shitload aan cult horror films en was een tijdje geleden ook tijdelijk het gezicht van de Call of Duty spotjes. De website Coming Soon had nu een interview met deze baas over zijn rol in de Eli Roth horror film Clown, die nu pas in de US is te zien en over de cult klassieker 8MM (1999) waar in hij ook te zien was.


CS: Clown could have been a tongue-in-cheek romp but it's a rather serious, clever film. And your version of Karlsson has real humanity at his core. Was Karlsson like that on page or was he more of a cartoon?

STORMARE
: Well, I always try to not make my characters cartoons, no matter what. I came on board Clown because it was a very simple story and it was a very nice script and a very refreshing take on a kind of The Brothers Grimm fable, you know? But whatever is on page, no matter how out there, when you make it to a move, you have to make it a bit more real. I saw Karlsson being like someone who you don't know who he is or what he knows and what his background is and you initially wonder, is he a villain? Did he plant this mask? What's his connection?
