About Max von Sydow
Swedish and French actor
Max von Sydow was a Swedish and French actor whose career stretched across seven decades in European and American cinema, television, and theatre. He was born in 1929 and died in 2020. He is known for a wide-ranging body of work that made him a familiar presence on screen and stage. He appeared in more than 150 films and several television series in multiple languages, moving easily between thoughtful leads, sardonic figures, and threatening villains.
