Heads up.
5
Everybody knew how to play poker actually around that table, except for one.
6
Daniel.
7
He had no clue.
8
He sucked.
9
Hi, I'm Mads Mikkelsen, and these are some of my iconic characters some people tell me.
10
Casino Royale.
11
Weeping blood comes merely from the derangement of the tear duct, my dear general.
12
Nothing sinister.
13
That was one of the things that the director actually insisted on because a real Bond villain has something.
14
He's got golden teeth or an extra nibble or something, so he went for the eye thing and Daniel, Craig, and I, and Martin Campbell.
15
We had a lot of ideas.
16
Daniel came straight from indie films, smaller films, and I also had my background in the pusher films.
17
We discussed, among other things, the big torture scene, and we went down the rabbit hole, me and Daniel.
18
We had so many ideas, and it was getting crazier and crazier.
19
You could just see Martin going, guys, guys, come back.
20
It's a Bond film.
21
Oh yeah, you're right, sorry.
22
But he was quite open to look and experiment with the parameters of what you can do in a Bond film.
23
I suppose our friend, Mr. White, will have told you that I have provided reliable banking services for many other freedom fighters over the years.
24
Do you believe in God, Mr. Le Chiff?
25
No. I believe in a reasonable rate of return.
26
He's a normal person.
27
He's not taking over the world.
28
He's not one of those guys.
29
He's in the funny money, and if Bond didn't bump into his way, they would never have met.
30
It's not that he's after anyone.
31
So obviously he's vulnerable.
32
There's people above him, people who are used to violence in a different way than he is
33
and it's a different kind of villain.
34
That's for sure.
35
I played a lot of poker since I was a kid.
36
So the game was not new to me.
37
The hands we are playing are insane.
38
So if you're a poker player, you'll go.
39
We just wanted to make the nature of the betting believable.
40
But the hands obviously had to be easily recognizable for an audience that doesn't play poker.
41
So they were quite crazy hands.
42
But yeah, everybody knew how to play poker around that table except for one, Daniel.
43
He had no clue.
44
He sucked.
45
And it was like, it was the worst thing ever
46
that he of all people had to beat me and win all my money.
47
It was like, this is wrong.
48
well i got him back with the rope so that's good
49
talk to strange for well beyond time
50
because time is what enslaves us time is an insult death is an insult
51
that was like some glam rock from the 70s just coming
52
up there it looked good took forever we were sitting three hours in
53
that chair every morning we cut it down eventually
54
but in the beginning it was very elaborate i think we ended up maybe
55
an hour and 45 but it was still a long time right
56
and it was annoying it was just annoying to be wearing
57
that but luckily I wasn't the only one you can feel a little weird
58
if you're the only one doing it I had a whole gang of zealots doing the same
59
When you're in an action film, you do one or two stunts.
60
And I am not the worst in the world to do stunts.
61
I'm a former gymnast and a dancer, so I'm pretty good at it.
62
So I get a little disappointed, like I did a little in the Bond film, when I realized that the biggest stunt I was doing in that film was to fold two aces.
63
It was like, this is not right.
64
Do they know how good I am in this?
65
Can I get a chopper scene?
66
So I got fulfilled with flying kung fu and wires and stuff.
67
It was really fun to be part of.
68
Bruce Lee, in my generation, was very hard not to be when you were like a working class kid.
69
That was like, that was him.
70
Him and Buster Keaton were unrelated though, but I can see now why I felt for both of them.
71
They have something in common.
72
They have a certain presence and they have a minimalistic way of doing things that, you know, Buster Keaton could do very little things.
73
And all of a sudden the sky would just open, right?
74
And so I've always been fascinated by that without putting my finger on why I was fascinated.
75
And with this, I will correct them all.
76
You stole it.
77
Then you stole it.
78
Everybody wanted their hands on the brilliant scientist
79
that was working for the Nazis and everybody was agreeing that they should just shut their eyes and not talk about it.
80
I'm a history buff.
81
I know quite a bit about that part.
82
I also know that it was not only in the States that these things happened.
83
It happened, obviously, in the Soviet Union to a degree in the U .K as well.
84
So we did look at a lot of photos of Van Der Van Brown in particular.
85
And it was interesting to see, you know, there was a certain dandiness around him.
86
He had a little curve in his hair, cool glasses.
87
And he was just walking around, you know, people and working with Americans as if there was no past.
88
And that's shocking, but it's also interesting to see that with what kind of an ease
89
that they just transformed from that period to the next.
90
Hippermit?
91
My memory's a little fuzzy.
92
Are you still a Nazi?
93
I think I remember the most, obviously, working with these fantastic people and working with Harrison, of course, is the top thing.
94
I mean, normally he would just see me wherever I was, randomly far away, and he would scream, that goes a Nazi.
95
Okay, thanks, Harrison.
96
There would be like an entire new crew who didn't know the story and everybody thought I was a Nazi.
97
Great.
98
So that was his way of warming up and I liked it.
99
He's a teenager in his energy and everything about him.
100
He's a legend on so many levels, right?
101
For his talent, for the stuff he's done.
102
But he's predominantly, in my world, a legend because he doesn't behave like a legend.
103
He just brings everything down to earth and makes everybody comfortable around him
104
so we can make and create a scene that works.
105
Hannibal.
106
Before we begin, you must all be warned, nothing here is vegetarian.
107
Hannibal is a very different animal.
108
He can be impulsive, but rarely.
109
It's a choice if he does it.
110
He's in complete control.
111
He sees the world differently than we do.
112
He's like a fallen angel.
113
He just sees the opposite.
114
He sees love when we see something horrifying.
115
He sees beauty when we see something very, very ugly.
116
For him, life is most interesting and most fantastic when it's on the threshold to death.
117
Right in that moment, there's something beautiful happening in his world.
118
So that's obviously a core way of thinking.
119
But I don't necessarily have to go down that path.
120
I can just substitute with something else that I find beautiful.
121
You know, something I cherish.
122
And I think that's the best way to approach it as opposed to go down in a dark alley.
123
Then go down in a beautiful alley that's what he's doing.
124
He's way too intelligent for anyone.
125
I have no idea how he learned all these languages and how to cook, play the setterman and shoot to bow and arrow to perfection, everything.
126
It's like, he's a lifted character, right?
127
And for some reason, he never got rid of his funny accent.
128
He didn't have time for that.
129
Well, I did it all.
130
Yeah, it's only doing stuff, flipping and catching an egg there.
131
And so that's a lot of juggling in that, which I'm fairly good at myself.
132
There was things that I didn't know why I did in the beginning and then it made sense later.
133
Like, as opposed to when he sniffs wine, everybody else goes like that.
134
He goes like, just away from him.
135
And then, I think I just did it to be interesting, to be honest, it was just something I was like, that's weird, he's doing that, let's just do it for fun.
136
And anyway, that's, it does make sense.
137
His nose is so sensitive.
138
It has to be all the way out here, right?
139
Did you just smell me?
140
Difficult to avoid.
141
We didn't want him to be a classical psychopath.
142
If that's the case, then we're going to dive into his past.
143
What happened to him?
144
Oh, there was something.
145
And it becomes a banal story about, oh, that could have been solved early on.
146
But we kind of didn't like the idea of understanding his path.
147
We just want him to be this and not a classical psychopath.
148
We want him to be a man with emotions and with empathy.
149
But unlike the other character, the main character of the show, Will Graham, who has no control of his empathy, he's just too much of that.
150
Hannibal has complete control when to have it and when to give it.
151
They were there like a yin -yang situation, right?
152
And that was the whole idea about the show, that they would circle around it.
153
Eventually something had to happen, and so it did.
154
The Hunt.
155
It was a frustrating read.
156
It was immaculate, it was beautiful, but it was also very frustrating to read it, because obviously I had the sensation of a man who was just cornered from everywhere And there was nothing he could hit.
157
There was no one he could hit.
158
He couldn't do anything.
159
And that's exactly what we set out to do.
160
I think that's one of the reasons why it's a very powerful film.
161
It's not from me.
162
Yeah.
163
What else do you think he's ready?
164
There should be someone who will kill you.
165
It's not from me.
166
I had a lot of scenes with a little girl so it was important for us that she felt comfortable
167
and so whatever we did didn't rub off on her
168
because somehow she had to run around in that world a little innocent
169
but also know just enough what the film was about.
170
So I spent a lot of time with her which was fun and made me forget the situation.
171
Even though it's quite a heroine experience to watch the film, they shouldn't really have the knowledge of what we're doing in that sense.
172
I've always found it like an interesting way for an actor to forget himself in a scene.
173
We can start overthinking stuff, but if we just hang in there with whatever the kid is doing and just kind of follow that energy,
174
we tend to become better actors as well.
175
Rogue One.
176
If I took my own life, it would only be a matter of time before Krennic realized he no longer needed me to complete the project.
177
so I did the one thing nobody expected I lied I made myself indispensable
178
and all the
179
while I laid the groundwork up for my revenge we call
180
it the Death Star Ursula wasn't evil he started out with good intentions
181
and then somebody took it over yeah
182
and Star Wars I created the Death Star boom yeah I just did
183
that and then working with Felicity it was it was an interest
184
because it was going back and forth in time quite a bit
185
and he said goodbye to his daughter when she She was very little, no knowledge of where she went and she had no knowledge of who he was
186
or was she on the dark side or on the good side.
187
So that was quite a dilemma for them when they met up again.
188
I've seen your message, the hologram.
189
I've seen it.
190
It must be a destroyer.
191
I know, I know.
192
We will.
193
Look at you.
194
It becomes very technical when you do it for three days in a row
195
because there was so much involved with rain and rain.
196
Very hard to keep your eyes open when the rain is just pouring out.
197
I mean, obviously, you just look at her and you see her for the first time in 20 years, and that's the same moment where you have to say goodbye to her again,
198
which is quite emotional, and then before you get a chance, you're gone.
199
So you try to play the situation.
200
You can't really plan for it, and sometimes it goes in one direction, sometimes in a different.
201
But when you're with a fantastic actress like Felicity, it helps a lot.
202
Another round.
203
It's the film about the levels of alcohol intake quite early
204
decided that's not gonna we're not gonna drink on set
205
because we do know what it is to be drunk
206
but we were curious about the levels did we have them correct or not like 0 .05 0 .07
207
what happens so we did a little boot camp where we tested out the different levels
208
and we acted out in one specific scene and we repeated
209
that again and again on different levels and it was quite clear
210
that after a certain amount
211
that there was no communication with the director anymore it was just four kids talking and nobody listening
212
And you get freer and freer and then a little too free and then back again.
213
So all these things were very important for us.
214
I mean, we could obviously react and we guessed a lot of it, but it was nice to have had that bootcamp
215
because there were things that were super clear to us when we watched it, but when you were in the midst of it that you had no awareness of, like hands.
216
All of a sudden, they get their own life, let's say after four phobias.
217
All of a sudden, they just have their own life and you don't feel it.
218
Everybody told me that he was the godfather of that universe.
219
He was trying to pitch it to us more than once.
220
And we're both like, I think I got it.
221
But she would just do the scene and you can take over from there.
222
Because there was so many layers in it when he was explaining it.
223
Norm and I just did our best to nod at the right place and say we got it, let's move on.
224
Yeah, I've not even gone through 10 % of it.
225
I have no idea how to play a game like that.
226
Again, we dressed up in a green bodysuit.
227
We had dots everywhere and we had wearing a camera.
228
And luckily I wasn't the only one.
229
There was more people like that.
230
So you do feel kind of ridiculous running around doing that.
231
But his world is so crazy.
232
Everything was animated he had a gigantic wall where he's been
233
doing all the drawings of what it was going to look like.
234
And it's just a world you have to just trust him.
235
We did scenes, but they could also move a little and then he would always fix it later.
236
He was one of these directors that was just so grateful for everything we did.
237
Even if we bombed our heads together and was like, can we do it again?
238
And he was like, no, it was great.
239
We can fix it later.
240
And we kept forgetting that it was an animated thing, right?
241
Come on, man.
242
The circle's back.
243
You should stay still, man.
244
Come on, man.
245
What?
246
Ow!
247
Peace!
248
Push a Trilogy is a film about Copenhagen.
249
It's about the underbelly of Copenhagen, where I grew up.
250
And the director did not want any actors in his film.
251
He was one of these guys who was like, everything authentic.
252
And the producer said, you got to have at least two actors in this one
253
because it's going to be too much of a handful for you.
254
He couldn't find any.
255
And he kept casting.
256
He just didn't like it.
257
There's all too much theater in them.
258
And so and I was in drama school and somebody said, you should take a look at this guy because nobody understands what he's saying.
259
He's just from that area of Copenhagen.
260
And he mumbles, he's fast and he liked what he saw.
261
So I got the job.
262
It was very rock and roll.
263
And he deliberately asked us to help give birth to this film.
264
He knew what the story was about.
265
He He wanted to capture it, but he didn't know the universe.
266
He didn't come from there at all.
267
So that was cool for us.
268
We were two actors running around with a lot of criminals shooting a film that was on a piece of paper.
269
That energy of making films in that specific manner has always kept with me.
270
You can't do it on every single film.
271
There would be a disaster to do it with an Indiana Jones film.
272
But the pureness and the cleanness of it, I think, is worth bringing to every film if you can't in one dimension or another.
273
So it's what I grew up with and I will always cherish it.
274
I think it was just a little rock and rolly and it's like, that would be fun, that would be cool.
275
Let's put respect in the back of his head.
276
And I don't think I was so super aware that that respect was ironic
277
in the sense that there was no respect for this character whatsoever.
278
It was a tricky thing to go back to a character that was so annoying.
279
I mean, he was just very annoying to be around also for me.
280
There was a part of me that was like, I don't really want to do that, you know?
281
But then, shaved your head and you got the tattoo and it's just like, I like him.
282
He's such an idiot.
283
Let's go.
284
Bella had a rise.
285
No, I couldn't see anything.
286
It was not see -through, it was just a prosthetic.
287
And it was super annoying for a lot of reasons.
288
I mean, we were in Scotland, And so it either was raining constantly or it was just baking sunshine.
289
But when it was baking sunshine, they had all these bushes in the mountains that were full of little animals called mitchis, like little biting kind of mosquitoes, but with jaws.
290
And it was billions of them.
291
Sometimes they got caught inside my eye when we did the prosthetic on set.
292
So I would have like five or six little animals trying to eat me inside the eye and I was constantly going, trying to kill them.
293
Yeah, and it was a pain, it was a pain in the air.
294
He talks. Who?
295
One eye.
296
What's he saying?
297
That was, again, one of these things where it's like, it's hard because he was like in between a real person or he was like kind of a myth.
298
We realized really fast that little normal things that people do scratch themselves
299
or fast movement reacting to something that we couldn't really
300
because we lost some something interesting about character
301
so we would actually reshot the first two days when we realized
302
that so we we went from over for like
303
and this is gonna sound pretentious because I never do this normally
304
but we did go for an animal this time we did
305
go for a like a big gorilla in a cave
306
that doesn't move like that it's just basically he knows it's happening
307
and when he moves his head it is very slow and
308
that that we played around with a little
309
but we took him away all the little fiddly things
310
that normal people do it's a strange film it started like one thing on on the paper
311
and and it changed a lot once we came up there this is one of the things
312
that Nicolas who also did to push your films he can
313
flip on a dime go like I hate Vikings let's do something else you know
314
and that's what we did so we we made a painting
315
or piece of music within the world of filmmaking I was
316
there for two days I think that's the only time I
317
have a shot in in America all the American films I've done have been shot in Europe
318
so thanks Rihanna thanks Rihanna I finally got to shoot in
319
America I don't know how it landed I'm she must have
320
seen I never asked her she must have seen something I've
321
done I believe of something Danish actually she called my agent
322
and it's like do you want to be in a Rihanna film and I was It's like, all respect to Rihanna, I...
323
I'm not big in music, so obviously I kind of plays her, and then I heard some music, oh yeah, she's cool.
324
My son, for the first time, I think, was impressed with what I do.
325
He wanted to come with me on set, and he's like, young teenager, I don't think so.
326
When she was so sweet, she's so good, and it became a really crazy video.
327
They liked the push of things, in the sense that there was a story.
328
I think we shot 10 % of that story, because it went in all kinds of crazy directions all of a sudden
329
so it became more like an idea of this as opposed to a solid clean story
330
and so it was very visual but yeah I'm pretty proud of being her bitch that's fine

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?
Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
