Viggo Mortensen

Viggo Peter Mortensen Jr. is a celebrated actor, writer, director, producer, musician, and multimedia artist. A true Renaissance man, Viggo was born and raised in the State of New York to a Danish father and American mother, and even spent part of his childhood living in Argentina. His stunning talent has been honored with accolades like a Screen Actors Guild Award, and he has been nominated for an astounding three Academy Awards, three BAFTA Awards, and four Golden Globe Awards. He's truly a force to be reckoned with! But Viggo isn't all work and no play. He has a great sense of humor, too- he once quipped that he was "the only person alive who could make a movie with no script, no director, and no crew!"
