Kristofer Hivju

Norwegian actor Christopher Heavey is best known in the world for his role as Tormund the Great Death in the popular television series "Game of Thrones" from george R.R. Martin's "Song of Ice and Fire." Colorful and charismatic descendant of the Vikings impresses fans of the fantasy saga of red-haired beards, flaming eyes and the authenticity of the acting in combat scenes. But "wild" bearded in real life still writes scripts and produces films.

Christopher Heavey was born on December 7, 1978 in Oslo, Norway. Actors Eric Heavey and Liselotta Holman, Christopher's parents, did not force their son to choose this profession and did not teach him since childhood to perform in front of the camera. He and his father, Christopher Heavey, starred in the Flax short film as an adult. The Heeview family has another well-known relative in the world of filmmaking: French actress and director Isabelle Nanti is Christopher Heavey's cousin.

After school, the young man entered the Faculty of Law of the University of Oslo, and at the same time studied at the Faculty of Journalism (in absentia). The actor received his professional education in the Danish branch of the Russian University of Dramatic Art (GITIS), located in the city of Aarhus. He received his diploma in 2004, but began to star in episodes of television series while still a student. In 2001, he received a small role in the TV series Fox Gr'nland.

The filmography of the actor includes a dozen series and short films, which were not translated into Russian, and in general outside Of Scandinavia remained little-known viewers. In 2008, Heevu starred in the thriller "The Massacre" directed by Patrick Seaversen. A good horror movie with pools of blood got into the world box office, and the charismatic Scandinavian actor - in the sights of American directors.

In 2011, a team led by director Mattis van Heinigen Jr. shoots a fantastic action movie "Something", in which a team of Norwegian scientists discovers in Antarctica a frozen alien werewolf. The role of Jonas, one of the brave explorers, was successfully performed by Christopher Heavey. The film was spotted by critics and in 2012 presented at the Saturn Award in two categories.

In 2012, Christopher Heavey re-starred in a sci-fi adventure film. The film by the American director M. Knight Shyamallan "After our era" collected a whole bunch of negative reviews. Nominated for six anti-awards "Golden Raspberry" - for the worst film, worst screenplay, directing, acting first and second, and screen couple.

But the unsuccessful film did not spoil the biography of the actor. In 2013, the third season of "Game of Thrones" was released, in which Heevu appeared as Tormund the Great Death. The winner of the giants is by no means a kid: Christopher's height is 1 m 83 cm, the weight of 83 kilograms, is folded proportionally and fights convincingly. What else do you need to succeed as a wildling?

In keeping with the plot of George R.R. Martin's books, the script gave Tormund the opportunity to become the leader of the army of the wildlings, replacing Mans as leader of the Free People. Filming in each season of the series takes about six months, and the rest of the time the artist realizes creative opportunities in other projects.

The actor was busy in a small role in the black crime comedy "The Foolish Case of The Simple" directed by Hans Petter Moland. The film participated in the competition program of the Berlin Film Festival in 2014, but did not win prizes. In the same year, Heavey appeared as a hunter in the adventure film "Surviving in the Arctic" directed by Grete Be-Vol and as Tormod in the television series "Lillehammer".

The most successful was The Work of Heevu in the drama "Force Majeure." Swedish film directed by Ruben Estlund, released in 2014, won six Golden Beetle Awards in 2015.

One of those awards (Best Supporting Actor) rightfully went to Christopher Heavey for his role as Mats, a divorced man who tries to build a relationship with a young girlfriend.

In 2015, the artist with a bright appearance gets the role of a real Viking in the historical-adventure film "Birkebeiners" directed by Nils Geup. The plot of the film takes place in the early 13th century, and the audience again sees Heavey in furs and armor, with a sword and a bow. His character Thorstein Skevla famously runs on skis and selflessly defends the young Norwegian King Haakon IV.

After "Birkebeiner" and "Game of Thrones," it's a little unusual to see Christopher in the eighth installment of the Fast and Furious franchise directed by F. Gary Gray. In the American action movie "Fast and Furious 8" adventures take place in the modern world, but not in Scandinavia. The character's name is Connor Rhodes, and his name has nothing to do with the pagan god of war Torah. However, hacker and villain Connor Rhodes is also actively fighting and even kills one of the main characters of the series.

The actor's personal life is strongly connected with the life of Grie Molver - journalist, photographer and director. The wife is eight years older than her husband, the couple have long known, but entered into a formal marriage in the summer of 2015, lives in Norway. In the summer of 2017, the couple's family scandal got into the camera lens of the paparazzi. Temperamental Norwegians quarreled in the street for more than an hour, according to eyewitnesses. In the photo, the whole scene looks like a dramatic theatrical production.

Despite the status of a married man and a frightening beard, Heavey is popular with fans of the series. When the artist posted on the network his long-standing photo with a smooth-shaven face, the fans at first did not recognize in this young man the harsh Viking Heavey, but, having considered, appreciated and threw him obscene suggestions. Strict contract prohibits the actors of "Game of Thrones" to change appearance to your liking until the end of the series, but after the end of filming "Tormund" can be transformed beyond recognition.

Fans of the fantasy saga are eagerly awaiting the release of the eighth, final, season of "Game of Thrones," which began filming in October 2017. Actors whose characters managed to survive throughout the events of the harsh world generated by the imagination of George Martin, gathered on the set in Belfast.

The fate of Tormund the Great Death remained a mystery to fans of the series. They wondered whether the red-haired warrior had died falling into the abyss with the destroyed wall, or whether he would return. A point in the controversy put Christopher Heeview's contract to work in the filming of the eighth season. Fans of the mighty Norwegian will still see his pet in the battle scenes of "Game of Thrones."

It is planned that the filming of the last season will end in spring 2018. But the plans of the NWO have already changed several times in the direction of increasing the time of work on the film. For the large-scale scenes planned in the eighth season, certain weather conditions are required, and the weather is a little predictable thing.

In addition, in the final season of the series, the team plans to make the most of the possibilities of 3D computer graphics, which will require additional time. Therefore, fans will be able to meet their favorite characters and find out how it will end only in 2019.

In addition to working in "Game of Thrones", Christopher starred in a joint Colombian and Norwegian drama "Mango - life coincidences" about the adventures of a small street boy, by an incredible coincidence caught from the slums of Colombia in a wealthy Norwegian family. The film is expected to premiere in 2018.
