Malin Maria Åkerman (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈmɑːlɪn ˈoːkərˌman]; born May 12, 1978) is a Swedish–Canadian actress and model. She was born in Stockholm, Sweden and moved to Canada at the age of two. As a child, she appeared in several television commercials before going on to win a modelling contract at age sixteen. Åkerman's acting career began with her debut on the Canadian television series Earth: Final Conflict in 1997, after which she made appearances on several other Canadian productions. In the early 2000s, she had many television and film parts, including The Utopian Society (2003) and Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle (2004). Following a supporting role on the short-lived comedy series The Comeback (2005), Åkerman gained her first starring roles in the feature films The Heartbreak Kid (2007) and 27 Dresses (2008).

Åkerman got her big break in 2009, when cast as Silk Spectre II in the superhero film Watchmen, a role for which she was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress. The same year, she had supporting and starring roles in both The Proposal and Couples Retreat, two commercial hits that garnered mixed to negative reviews. In 2010, she became part of the main cast on the comedy series Childrens Hospital. Apart from acting and occasional modelling, Åkerman served as the lead singer for the alternative rock band The Petalstones, but eventually left to focus on her acting career. She has been married to the band's drummer, Roberto Zincone, since 2007. The couple resides in Los Angeles, California.

Early life

Åkerman was born in Stockholm, Sweden to aerobics teacher and part-time model Pia (née Sundström) and insurance broker Magnus Åkerman.[1][2] When she was two, the family moved to Canada when her father was offered a job.[2] Four years later, her parents divorced, with her father moving back to Sweden.[1] Both of her parents remarried, giving Åkerman one half-brother and two half-sisters.[1] After her mother remarried, they moved to Niagara-on-the-Lake, Ontario.[3] Later in her teenage years, her mother divorced again.[2] Åkerman attended many different schools,[4] including Sir Winston Churchill Secondary School in St. Catharines, Ontario.[5] She once attended a Catholic school, although being raised a Buddhist.[4] She has recalled some portions of her childhood as "painful", explaining that "I loved my father very much and I only got to see him during the school holidays. But I think it was an advantage that they split up when I was very young, so I could get used to it."[1] She visited her father in Falsterbo, Sweden during school breaks and talked to him regularly over the phone.[6][7] She cites her parents as "supportive, positive influences" in her life.[7]

As a child, Åkerman had no plans to become an actress.[1] Her mother introduced her to modelling while she was still in primary school and she later landed several advertising campaign deals, but decided to stop at age twelve.[1] However, four years later she returned to modelling after her discovery by Ford Models in a shopping mall in St. Catharines.[1][7] She was signed to the agency and later won a contract with skincare company Noxzema.[7] She soon moved into an apartment in Toronto while attending North Toronto Collegiate Institute.[7] At age eighteen, she decided to become a child psychologist.[1] The decision was inspired by the "helplessness" she sometimes felt during her childhood.[3] She did modelling to afford her education, including a few television commercials and catalogue work.[8] She studied for a year at York University in Toronto, and was simultaneously offered guest roles on television from people who had seen her commercials.[8] She saw the acting gigs as opportunities to further pay for her education, but found herself enjoying it and decided to drop out of school to become an actress.[8] She moved to Los Angeles, California in 2001 to pursue her acting career full time.[9]

Career

1997–2008

Åkerman made her acting debut on the Canadian science fiction series Earth: Final Conflict in 1997, in a cameo appearance as a robot.[10] She originally landed a role on an MTV pilot with Rachel McAdams, but the project was never picked up by the network.[8] In 2000, she guest starred on Relic Hunter and had a smaller role in the Canadian film The Skulls.[5] The following year, she made appearances on the Canada-based series Doc and Twice in a Lifetime.[11] In 2001, she moved to Los Angeles, California in hopes of pursuing a broader acting career.[3] At first, she worked as a waitress and stayed at a friend's house.[3][6] In 2003, she received smaller role in the film The Utopian Society.[5] The film was edited by Francesco Sondelli, who was the guitarist for alternative rock band Ozono.[11] Sondelli asked her to help the band out with song lyrics and later asked her to sing.[8] Åkerman subsequently became the band's singer, and they changed their name to The Petalstones.[9][8] The band's debut album, Stung, was released in August 2005.[12] Åkerman eventually left to focus on her acting career, and admits that she "actually can't sing".[1]

In 2004, she got a small role in the film Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle,[5] but considered moving back to Canada as most of her auditions failed.[3] She was then cast in a supporting role as Juna on the short-lived HBO television series The Comeback, with Lisa Kudrow in the main role.[5] Kudrow played a former sitcom star who tried to restart her career.[13] Åkerman's appearance on the show garnered media attention and resulted in her being offered more roles.[3] A year later, she guest starred on an episode of Love Monkey and two episodes of Entourage.[11] Before the Entourage episodes aired, she landed a role in the 2007 comedy film The Brothers Solomon.[14] The film was a box office bomb and received largely critical reviews.[15][16]

Åkerman signed up for a role opposite Ben Stiller in the comedy film The Heartbreak Kid, directed by the Farrelly Brothers, in 2006.[14] She played in the lead female role as Lila, the newly wedded wife of Stiller's part.[17] The film follows the couple's honeymoon in Mexico, where Stiller's part falls in love with another woman and realizes that the marriage was a mistake.[18] The film is a remake of the 1972 film of the same name, which was considered a "classic", and the directors had doubts about remaking it at first.[17] Released in October 2007, the film received generally poor reviews as critics deemed it "neither as daring nor as funny" as the directors' earlier films.[19] Åkerman's performance garnered more positive reviews; Desson Thomson of The Washington Post called her a "fabulous comic partner" to Stiller,[18] while Roger Moore of Times Herald-Record felt that she outperformed him.[20] The film grossed $14 million in its opening weekend in the United States, and went on to gross $127 million globally.[21]

In 2007, Åkerman joined the cast of 27 Dresses, a romantic comedy film directed by Anne Fletcher with Katherine Heigl in the lead role.[22] The film follows Heigl's character Jane, who has always been the bridesmaid and dreams of her own wedding. Åkerman played Jane's sister Tess.[23] The film was shot during the summer of 2007,[24] and released in January 2008 to weak critical reception as it was considered "clichéd and mostly forgettable".[25] The film was more successful commercially, with a gross of $160 million.[26] Åkerman played the title role in Bye Bye Sally, a short film directed by Paul Leyden and based on Lisa Mannetti's short story Everybody Wins.[27] The film premiered at the 2009 Newport Beach Film Festival.[27]

2009–2011

In 2009, Åkerman starred as Silk Spectre II in Zack Snyder's superhero film Watchmen, an adaption of Alan Moore's graphic novel of the same name.[28] The film is set in an alternate reality in 1985 where a group of retired vigilantes investigate an apparent conspiracy against them.[1][28] Snyder favoured Åkerman over other more well-known actresses, as he felt that they could not play such a serious part.[29] Åkerman rehearsed with "months of hardcore training" and went on a very strict diet.[9] She wore a brunette wig, high heels and an uncomfortable latex costume, which provided little protection when performing stunts, and she often bruised herself during filming.[29] Åkerman believes her character carries the emotion of the film, as she is the only woman among several men.[30] Premiering in February 2009, the film received generally favourable reviews,[31] and was a commercial success, grossing $185 million worldwide.[32] Although Åkerman was nominated for a Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actress and a Teen Choice Award for her performance in the film,[33][34] critics were generally negative towards her acting.[35][36][37]

Åkerman appeared in the 2009 romantic comedy film The Proposal, starring Sandra Bullock and Ryan Reynolds in the lead roles.[38] Åkerman played a supporting role as Gertrude, the ex-girlfriend of Reynolds' part.[39] Although the film received mixed reviews, it went on to gross $317 million worldwide.[40] Also in 2009, Åkerman starred in the comedy film Couples Retreat, opposite Jon Favreau and Vince Vaughn.[41] The film follows four couples as they travel to a tropical island resort for couples therapy.[41] Åkerman played Ronnie, the wife of Vaughn's part.[42] She enjoyed playing a mother for the first time and tried to make her character as truthful as possible,[42] which included dying her hair brown to not look like a "blonde bombshell".[1] The film premiered in theatres in October 2009 and grossed $34 million in its opening weekend in the United States, entering number one at the box office, and totalled $171 million worldwide.[43] However, reception for the film was mainly negative, although Åkerman's performance was met with more positive reactions.[44][45]

In 2010, Åkerman co-starred as Annie in the Josh Radnor-directed comedy-drama film happythankyoumoreplease.[46] As her character has alopecia, Åkerman shaved off her eyebrows and wore a bald cap to cover her hair.[47] She was originally offered a different part, but felt that she wanted to play Annie as it was different from her previous roles.[47] The film premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in January 2010 and received an audience award for Favorite U.S. Drama.[46] Reviews from critics were polarized, but Åkerman received praise.[48][49][50] In May 2010, she guest starred on the How I Met Your Mother episode "The Wedding Bride".[51] In August 2010, she joined the cast of the currently ongoing Adult Swim comedy series Childrens Hospital.[52] She plays the part of Dr. Valerie Flame, a promiscuous doctor in the hospital who serves as the series' narrator.[53] Åkerman played a supporting role in the romantic comedy film The Romantics, with Katie Holmes, Josh Duhamel and Anna Paquin.[54] The film premiered on September 10, 2010 on limited release.[55]

In 2010, she starred in the comedy film Elektra Luxx, opposite Carla Gugino and Joseph Gordon-Levitt. The film is a sequel to 2009's Women in Trouble.[56] Åkerman played Trixie, an awkward drug store clerk who falls for Gordon-Levitt's part, who is obsessed with Gugino's character, a retired porn star.[57] The film premiered on March 11, 2011 on limited release and received generally unfavourable reviews; critics dismissed its many subplots and called it a "bizarre sex comedy".[58] Åkerman starred in the lead female role in the film The Bang Bang Club, which follows a group of young photojournalists in South Africa during the final stages of the apartheid.[59] Åkerman played Robin Comley, a newspaper photo editor.[60] The film premiered during the 2010 Toronto International Film Festival to mixed reviews from the press.[61][62] In 2010, Åkerman signed up for a part in newcomer Aaron Harvey's Catch .44, a drama-thriller film with Forest Whitaker and Bruce Willis in the male lead roles.[63] The film is set to premiere on limited release on December 9, 2011.[64]

Upcoming projects

Åkerman has a supporting role in the upcoming 2012 comedy film Wanderlust, with Jennifer Aniston and Paul Rudd.[65] The film focuses on an overworked couple who ends up at a nudist commune when they try to slow things down.[66] Åkerman plays Eva, a woman at the commune.[66] Åkerman will also star in the 2012 bank heist action film Medallion opposite Nicolas Cage.[67] She replaced Lindsay Lohan as Linda Lovelace in the upcoming film Inferno: A Linda Lovelace Story, based on the life of the late porn star.[68] In May 2011, it was confirmed that she had joined the cast of Rock of Ages as the journalist Constance Stack. The film, and the other projects Cottage Country, The Giant Mechanical Man and The Numbers Station, are set to be released in 2012.[69][70] Åkerman has also been cast alongside Gary Oldman and Milo Ventimiglia in Cliff Dorfman's directorial debut, Criminal Empire for Dummies.[71] She is up for a role in Serpent Girl, based on Matthew Carnahan's book of the same name.[67]

Personal life

As Åkerman was born in Sweden and grew up in Canada, she has "conflicting feelings" for the two countries.[9] In an interview with Toronto Star, she said, "Every time I'm in Canada I feel more Swedish, and every time I'm in Sweden I feel more Canadian. I belong in both places and I love them both equally."[9] She holds both Swedish and Canadian passports.[9] Apart from speaking fluent English and Swedish, she also speaks French and Spanish.[2][3] She describes herself as a feminist as she believes in equal treatment for both sexes, but also considers that "We [women] are different", adding that she "embrace[s] those differences."[1] She has revealed that she is dyslexic and said that it takes her "a long time" to learn her lines, saying "I get horrified when I have to do table reads with the whole cast, because there’s a lot of stuttering coming from me, so I have to do a lot of prep."[72] Because of this, she prefers to improvise her lines.[72]

Åkerman was raised a Buddhist,[8] which inspired the lotus flower tattoo on her upper back.[4] She also has a tattooed 'Z' on her right wrist, honouring her husband, Italian musician Roberto Zincone.[4] The two met in 2003 when Åkerman was the lead singer for The Petalstones, for which Zincone served as the drummer.[1] After band practices, they usually socialized, using a dictionary as he could not speak English.[4] They eventually started dating and married at Grand Hotel Moon Valley in Sorrento, Italy on June 20, 2007.[1][6] The couple resides in Los Angeles, California.[11]

Åkerman is noted for frequently appearing in nude scenes in her films, such as The Heartbreak Kid and Watchmen.[73][74] She has stated that she feels comfortable as long as the scenes are not gratuitous.[75] In an interview with Daily Mail, she commented, "I spent a lot of time as a child in Sweden; it’s natural there. [...] I don't know many women who go to bed with their husband at night and have sex with a bra on, do you? So let's make it real in the movies."[1] In 2008, she made her first appearance on AskMen's "99 Most Desirable Women" list at number sixty.[76] The same year, men's magazine Maxim placed her at number fifty-nine in their annual "Hot 100" rankings.[77] The following year, the magazine ranked her at number four.[78] Although admitting that sex appeal is one of the "best assets", Åkerman considers being beautiful both "a blessing and a curse", stating; "I tend to get a lot of scripts in which people want me to play the trophy wife, which is frustrating because I want the interesting, meaty roles."[1]
