He was a damned good Swedish actor, most famously on this side of the pond for the Steig Larsson Millenium Trilogy films from Sweden. (The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo films.)
Michael Nyqvist (Wiki)
He was 56. Too damned young.
On edit: corrected name spelling in title. Fscking auto correct.

He was definitely too young, had lots more roles ahead of him.

(40,416 posts)3. Nyqvist and Rapace.
Here:
Noomi Rapace and Michael Nyqvist.
Love those films.
1. The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo is a murder mystery.
2. The Girl who Played with Fire is a police procedural.
3. The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest is a trial account.
Lots of drama and action in all three. Noomi Rapace as Lisbeth Salander is utterly badass.
