Thomas Magnussen

Thomas’ first job straight out of drama school was a small part as a German soldier in the award winning hit HBO tv series “Band of Brothers”. He was asked by the national Danish broadcasting network, if he would introduce the episode on live television; seeing as he was the only Danish actor in the series. Thomas who hadn’t then seen the show and whose role was rather small, avoided a potentially embarrassing situation by respectfully declining.
Thomas has featured in several of the hit “Nordic Noir” tv shows, such as “Follow the Money”, “The Bridge” and “The Legacy”. He has played a leading role at the very prestigious Royal Shakespeare Company in England (in “The Earthworks” by Tom Morton-Smith in 2017). In 2008 he won the Danish equivalent of the Tony award “Aarets Reumert” together with long time friend and colleague “House of Cards” and “The Witcher” star Lars Mikkelsen for their Shakespeare show “Muse of Fire”.
