As his name implies, Gustaf Caspar Orm Skarsgård is one of Vikings ' only true Scandinavians, though he looks a lot less fearsome in real life. While Flóki is famous for sporting a beard and that iconic crying makeup — which, indeed, makes him look far from sane — Skarsgård stays clean-shaven and professional, just like the rest of his actor-filled family. If we're in the business of ranking Skarsgårds, Gustaf would have to be third. His father, Stellan Skarsgård, is easily the most famous of the family, having played Professor Gerald Lambeau in Good Will Hunting , Bootstrap Bill Turner in Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest and Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End , Bill Anderson in Mamma Mia! , Martin Vanger in The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo , Captain Tupolev in The Hunt for Red October, and the Marvel Cinematic Universe's Dr. Erik Selvig in Thor, The Avengers, Thor: The Dark World, and Avengers: Age of Ultron. You also know Skarsgård's brother, Alexander Skarsgård, for having notably played the Scandinavian vampire Eric Northman in HBO's long-running series True Blood , Meekus in Zoolander and Zoolander 2 , Perry Wright in Big Little Lies, and the title character in The Legend of Tarzan.
