Dag Joakim Tedson Nätterqvist (born 24 October 1974) is a Swedish actor.
Background
Nätterqvist was born in Gamla Uppsala. He is the son of competitive equestrians Ted Nätterqvist and Pia Levin Nätterqvist and grew up on Flammabyggets equestrian farm outside Laholm. Nätterqvis learned to ride at age 4 and competed in show jumping as a child and teenager. He is the grandson of Swedish show jumping rider and trainer Dag "Dadde" Nätterqvist.[1][2]
As a youth, he was more drawn to the world of sports, rather than drama, not only competing in equestrian sports, but playing ice hockey and football as well. After attending several smaller drama institutes, he graduated from the Stockholm Academy of Dramatic Arts in Stockholm in 2001. He quickly landed a three-year stint with Stockholm City Theatre, where he appeared in, among others, Hamlet and A View from the Bridge. He also had the chance to work with Lars Norén, considered by many to be Sweden's most prominent contemporary playwright, at The National Theatre Company[3] in his play Terminal.[2]
He landed his first leading TV role in the 2002 mini-series Stackars Tom.[4]
Arn: Knight Templar
Nätterqvist has since then moved on to television and film. He had his big breakthrough in 2007 when he starred in the movie Arn – The Knight Templar, its sequel and the six-part[5] television series.[6] Nätterqvist played the leading role of crusading knight Arn Magnusson. Once the stunt team realized how well Nätterqvist could ride, he ended up performing his own horse stunts. He also benefitted from previous classes in olympic fencing for several past theatre productions, and his general interest in fencing (he was a special guest and speaker at the 2012 Swedish Competitive Fencing Convention).[7]
This is the most expensive movie project in the history of Swedish film and was shot in English and Swedish, on location in Sweden, Scotland and Morocco with an international cast.[6] The production was headed by Svensk Filmindustri in conjunction with Film i Väst, TV4 (Sweden), Telepool(Germany), Danmarks Radio (Denmark), YLE (Finland) and TV 2 (Norway).[8]
The Arn project has been shown on television in many areas of the world. When it was shown in France on France 4,[9] it went up against Showtime’s historical drama The Tudors, on NRJ12 in the same time slot, and rated with a higher numbers of viewers.[10]
Recent projects
He has continued work with television, theatre and film. In 2011, he co-starred in the controversial Swedish film With Every Heartbeat/Kiss Me[11] and award-winning music video director Adam Berg's film In.[12] Americans saw him in the 2011 season finale of USA Network's series Covert Affairs.[13]
Among his upcoming projects is starring in the British-Australian apocalypse thriller Last Days of Eden alongside Xavier Samuel, Lachlan Buchanan and Jessica Chapnik.[14][15]
Starting October 2013, Nätterqvist will play the male lead in musical Ljus & Mörker alongside Swedish West end star Nina Söderquist (Spamalot) . The music is written by ABBA’s Benny Andersson, Marcos Ciscar and [16] Pugh Rogefeldt.[17]
Personal life
He lives in Gamla stan, the medieval section of Stockholm[18] with haute couture handbag designer Sunshine Cunningham-Cole[19][20] (daughter of British fine artist and ceramist Carl Cunningham-Cole)[21] and their children from previous relationships.
Nätterqvist is bilingual in Swedish and English (he speaks English with two different accents, standardized American English and British Received Pronunciation).
He has a Britpop/Indie pop band named Nacissistic Street. They released the CD Soldier in Me in 2008.[22][23] The album was recorded before he made his big breakthrough as the medieval knight and had to postponed the album release due to massive Arn project.[6] In December 2011 the band performed at the european premiere of David Fincher’s The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.[24]
His favorite play is Macbeth.[25]
Voted sexiest man in Sweden 2007 by Plaza Magazine [26]
Nätterqvist has been very active raising money for UNICEF. [27]
Unscripted Television
Nätterqvist has also worked with unscripted television. In 2010 he almost won the Swedish version of Let's Dance for Comic Relief with his interpretation of Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance.[28] In spring 2011 he co-hosted the popular TV cooking show Klockan åtta hos stjärnorna.[29] He has also participated in other shows such as Herr och Fru and Doobidoo.[30][31]
