Alicia VikanderSpeaker and Booking Agent Information

Vikander’s big break would come two years later, when she landed a recurring role on the TV series "Andra Avenyn" (Second Avenue), one of Sweden’s most popular dramas. She appeared in nearly 40 episodes over the course of the 2007-08 seasons, and she became a household name in her home country. With that success under her belt, Vikander made the leap to the big screen in 2009 with the lead role in the thriller "Pure." For her work, Vikander won the Rising Star Award at the Stockholm Film Festival, the Shooting Star Award at the Berlin Film Festival and the Guldbagge Award for best actress, a huge honor in Swedish film.

Vikander soon appeared in her first English-language film, the 2012 adaptation of Leo Tolstoy’s "Anna Karenina." In this film she found herself alongside Hollywood figures Keira Knightley and Jude Law, and she held her own, receiving a BAFTA nomination for her role. She was also dubbed one of the 2012 Hamptons International Film Festival 10 Actors to Watch, and it soon became clear that Hollywood was indeed watching.

With buzz building, Vikander had her choice of roles, and she moved effortlessly between Swedish and English films. In 2013 she starred in "The Fifth Estate" and also in the Swedish "Hotell." For her role in the 2014 film "Testament of Youth," Vikander was nominated for a BIFA Award for Best Performance by an Actress in a British Independent Film and a National Film Award for best actress.

While not a blockbuster, the high-profile 2015 film "Ex Machina," in which Vikander plays an embodied artificial intelligence, gained the young actress widespread notice. What followed were more attention-grabbing roles in "The Man From U.N.C.L.E.," "The Danish Girl" and "Burnt," all in 2015. Vikander earned Golden Globe nominations for both "The Danish Girl" and "Ex Machina," and in early 2016 received the first Oscar nod of her career for "The Danish Girl" (supporting actress). In the latter film, Vikander portrays the emotionally conflicted artist wife of Lili Elbe, a transgender woman played by Eddie Redmayne.

Up next is a role in "The Light Between Oceans," in which she stars with Michael Fassbender, and another in the next installment of the Jason Bourne series of films, starring Matt Damon.
