Alexander Skarsgard is still shooting What Maisie Knew, which I hope gets a title change, because every time I hear it I think “ugh.” Anyway, Alex is still teaming up with this young child actress, whose name I still don’t know. She’s not identified by the photo agency, and IMDB doesn’t have the actress’s name up yet! I’m assuming the kid is playing “Maisie” – the little girl at the center of a custody battle between her parents, played by Julianne Moore and…? Steve Coogan, maybe. I was just informed that Alex plays Maisie’s step-father, Julianne Moore’s new husband in the film. Which… is still bizarre casting, in my opinion.
Considering he’s probably playing older than his real age, I’m assuming that’s why his styling is kind of gross…? Because his hair looks awful. And his clothes don’t fit. I do think it’s super-cute that he’s so connected to the child actors, though. Skarsgard was a child actor himself, and my guess is that he’s especially in tune to making a film set fun and interesting for kids.
There’s video from the other day, when Skarsgard was playing with the young girl in between takes and set-ups. The girl totally adores him, and she’s quite happy to use him as a jungle gym. HIS ARMS in this video. Hot. Hotter than whatever is happening to his hair.

He’s actually playing Julianne’ character’s new (younger, she is like 15 years older than him after all)husband, so the kid’s stepdad. He’s supposed to be kind of hipster/loserish, hence the hair and dirty shoes.

Is he filming when he’s hugging that girl or is it genuine. It appears genuine. Aw…. Very very cute.
TB – can’t believe I’m saying this but yea I’m kind of over this new Eric this season. I’m actually finding Bill more attractive at times.
It’s just like why did they have to also erase all the raw sex appeal from Eric and turn him into a skipping through fake snow ‘can we make love forever’ man-child? How about I’m going to ‘f*ck you forever Sookie Stackhouse’ while you scream my name?
The one time you saw a glimpse of his sexy self last episode was when he was biting sookie. Will be interesting to see how they do this blood tie after he gets his memory back. Quite sure they will play it out the next seasons with nothing happening between the real Eric and Sookie. Agh.
And yes, AS is very attractive in spite of his flat ironed hair…. Is it supposed to make him look hip..?

It’s also kind of cute how when he walks his one foot is inverted at times. I’ve noticed that in TB before.

Speaking of Alexander….does anyone else think the sex scenes between him and Anna are horrible?!?!?! No chemistry and just plain awkward. I almost can’t watch….almost….lol.

I have no maternal instincts or indeed any interest in children at all and I STILL found this both cute and hot. WTF, hormones.

he is so effing HOT!
hairball- i agree. sex has been zapped out of Eric on TB. Bill is much more menacing (which is ridiculous) and sexy. in fact, im pretty disappointed with this season as of last episode. they need to fix things or they are going to lose me. make Eric stop bein a puss, and i’ll be back on board. give me some good sex scenes!!

In the novel (it’s Henry James, published in the 1890s), Alex’s character–a self-admitted coward, cad, and weakling–genuinely loves Maisie and is loved in return. He’s scandalously younger than Maisie’s (awful) mother, remarkably handsome, and generally dazzles everyone he meets. He’s also pretty much the main male character. It’s Maisie’s step-parents and governess who have the most interaction with her.
Another thing: This kind of looks like a cute kid/romantic comedy deal, but the book is NOT. The way most of the people in Maisie’s life treat her and use her as a weapon to hurt one another is pretty devastating. I am really curious about how this movie’s gonna turn out….

I DIE with the little girl holding onto his finger. OMG, ovaries, I can’t. No more words.

Oh man, I knew I shouldn’t have opened this page. I’ve been over True Blood’s Eric always-naked-butt for the last couple of episodes. I’ve never especially found him attractive but yet…(straining, and fighting against…)
he looked so damn hot while in genuine joy with those kids.
Damn him. And damn you, Kaiser. I don’t want to find him attractive.

He should smile more often, makes him even HOTTER! Love a manly man that can also be sweet with a kid…awwwww

lol, he’s going to have her arms pop out of their sockets! ALL men are guilty of doing this with kids, and all their mothers scold them for doing it too.
Very cute though, that’s one hot stepdaddy.

ps: lmao of at the little maisie girl watching on as the other little girl hugs Skars as if she’s thinking, “back off my stepdaddy, bitch.”

I can’t even…I want him to have my babies STAT! Last Friday, my friend and I were texting these photos back and forth. He’s a fucking beast. Any man who interacts with kids like this (sigh, like my husband…
) make me fall over from bursting ovaries.
My friend’s sister met him the other day in NYC and said he was the nicest guy ever. Taking photos with fans, talking with everyone and just generally happy. I love it when actors take the time for their fans.

@Eleonor
What position am I in line? Like end of the line that loops around 4 business buildings like a line for a Harry Potter or *shudders* a Twilight movie?
I mean I’ve been wanting his babies for a awhile, I just didn’t have the urge to tell people I’m a ASkars loonie until these pics come out… that should at least place me at like, middle of the line? I could be ok with that… maybe

When I was a kid, I used to do the same exact thing with my Dad. It’s easy to hang off your Dad’s arm when he’s 6’3″ & a big strong guy! It looks like ASkars will be a great Dad one day! SO glad he got rid of that boil…AKA Kate Bosworth!

Every thread needs a spoiler . . .
He’s got frickin’ buck teeth! I don’t get you guys. I will say I don’t watch True Blood, but I think Steven Moyer’s hotter. And he dated Kate Bosworth. That alone is better than a cold shower.

He was hot in True Blood before he became “special needs Eric”. He was also super hot as the Iceman in Generation Kill. As himself, he is dorky cute.

He’s reminding me more and more of a younger Jim Carrey for some reason, his hair and smile maybe?

That is so adorable! Men that are good with kids melt my cold heart…
Eric was sort of adorable in the beginning of his memory loss, but yeah, now it’s really corny and I’m so ready for arrogant/hot Eric to return. In fact, I don’t think I even want Sookie/Eric together anymore. Alan Ball has destroyed that fantasy.

What Devon said. ASkars is a “fucking beast”. There is nothing, nothing, NOTHING hotter than a hot dude who is good with children. OMFG. Ovaries. Jumping.

I like his character right now in true blood! I know he’s good at being mean and hateful but seeing him as a vulnerable, soft spoken man is just as sexy if you ask me!
