Q: I just finished watching HBO's "Chernobyl" series, and I'm wondering why I recognize the actor who played Boris, the Soviet bureaucrat at the center of the show.
You recognize him because he's Stellan Skarsgård, Hollywood's favorite pan-European.
He's Ukrainian in HBO's hit historical drama "Chernobyl," but he was a Russian in 2016's "Our Kind of Traitor" and 1990's "The Hunt for Red October," a Norwegian in the first two Thor movies and the second Avengers movie, a historical Anglo-Saxon in 2004's "King Arthur" and a Swede in the two Mamma Mia movies (2008 and 2018).
