Alicia Vikander Answers the Web's Most Searched Questions | WIRED
"I'm trying with my English"
girl you speak english better than most native speakers out there 😅😂👌🏻
palemoonlight96 it's called being humble😂
Except for "rock climb-bing"
I english good though.
palemoonlight96 no she doesn't
Had to like this to break the 666.
She’s got a beautiful voice...
Swetish is a good voice
That’s what I was gonna say!
Her english dialect gave me cancer
@Angry Ox I guess the universe is balanced then ;)
Has she just got a very good ritual for her skin or is it just good genes or what. Amazing skin.
If she is wearing a highlighter, I want it. If she has such perfect skin that it shines, I want it. What a beautiful woman!!
DlchMcV its called face masking and make up. Youre welcome.
I would do naughty things to her
You want her skin? Easy now, Buffalo Bill.
She's pretty young but has a real innocent doe like face that makes her look like a teenager.
uhm she’s not a beautiful woman
“Is Alicia Vikander single?”
*Michael has entered the chat*
A . P . "Is Alicia Vikander single?"
Michael Fassbender:*heavy breathing*
Alicia Vikander:No
Michael Fassbender:Phew
She literally purposefully held up her ring hand 😂
Fassbender: mutant army, assemble
Made my day
Michael?
Hey vsauce... Michael here!
her skin looks like the smoothest thing ever
Ripe for the skinning!
Russo Wintergreen Um... why mention black women??? That seems completely pointless and full of ignorance
Russo Wintergreen you’re a pretty decent troll
Russo Wintergreen bait
CHRIS - its a drag man
I'm glad she seems to care about the character of Lara Croft! You can really tell that she's passionate about having this opportunity, and that's great.
Based on her answers she clearly doesn't care. She show no signs of even knowing it's a video game character, and she thinks Angelina Jolie made it popular.
Vodkainum in other interviews she mentions that she played the game as a kid and loved having an excuse to play the reboot games for 'research' for the role.
omgitsMeerkatChris its called being professional
although she doesn't seem aware of her being a game character first
shame the film was trash like the first one lol
She's the most Mediterranean looking Scandinavian i have ever seen.
Don't believe the stereotype. Many are dark with brown eyes like her (and me). Swedes come in all shapes, sizes and colours...
@@NinaForever1 Sure. No offense intended .😇
Im italian and german and almost look a little bit like her
@@isabellacam4775 cool😉
I'm told I look Italian all the time. People just can't accept that we don't all fit the blonde, blue eyed stereotype. Quite annoying actually.
Love that she's got humour but tries to answer seriously to every question with simplicity. What an elegant person!
alicia vikander is downright gorgeous.
*Ikr*
Yes
Maqz Malone she fits Lora croft perfect
Yes
She is just Swedish
"What's this!? Swedish person ask for translation"... Haha, I can relate sometimes :D
no..fake polygons of lara croft , it relates to the game , games was out way before the movie , so she seems to not know there is also a game...polygons are in games:)
I'm pretty sure she's aware Tomb Raider is based on a game but she most likely didn't play it, therefore may not know every little detail about it.
Hehe, well - to you both: Thanks for explaining but I didnt mean especially what she asked about, more about that I can relate to needing translation sometimes for some hard words that I dont know what it means.
I thinks she was so funny when she said it and she was so cute :D
Christian Davila she grew up playing the game and that’s why she was so excited to play Lara. she said so in a previous interview
Cool, but she still missed the polygon question
"Is Alicia vikander nominated for an Oscar?"
No!... But I won one of those two years ago. lol
The Danish girl yeah :D
hahahahaha
She is savage
how can she win if she's not nominated?
Cuore Sportivo She isn't nominated, she *was* nominated and won.
She is so gorgeous ! That voice and accent ! Major girl crush 😍
Lol
Crazy about her. Makes me wish I were young and had never left Hollywood-- also seems very kind. Just maybe there IS a perfect human!
Same though. She seems like she'd be an awesome friend
@@benjayman1937 Simp go outside
You mean major crush
I want her voice to be my future AI assistant
tejas tayade YES
Watch ex machina.
That would be pretty meta for sure
Lol total relatable
Oh my god true
She's so classy and sophisticated. Love her!
Kim G. I read this as she cursed in the last scene lol
"Swedish person asks for translation" - me all the time tbh
And they didn't translate it 🤷♂️
@@bradavon yo could you please translate it for me. Google translator makes no sense.
@@DieNummer1 Polygon = Shapes in computer graphics :). No way Google Translate is going to know this :D
@@bradavon thanks! So what does it mean in this context?
@@DieNummer1 It isn't linked with Lara Croft games, old ones? Polygon in 3D animation (?) is small triangular ym... objects, that makes illusion of 3D? Long time ago it was very important, when amount of polygons was small?
She is so gorgeous and her voice is so calm
She's the most gorgeous woman I've seen. And she's so simple, but for some reason she's incredibly beautiful.
bad taste.
She is fine 👌
@@Sphynxs doesnt mean u were better tho
Why is her accent and her personality and her skin angelic?!? Ugh I love her!
She’s so gorgeous. Michael Fassbender is a lucky guy
“That is kind of byproduct to the job that I do” I love her. So down to earth and clever. Not to mention how she handled the question of her and AJ.
“Is Lara Croft a superhero?”
“No. But she’s supercool” 😂😂
Just a heads up, Angelina's Lara Croft is based on the first Tomb raider video games that came out in 1996. Alicia's Lara Croft is based on the new games with the first one coming out in 2013. They are completely different ideas of the character and Alicia fits with the new games as Angelina fit with the older games.
AHH ok thanks!
She fit the role much better than I thought she would. Although the Lara Croft in the reboot game is far more educated and knows about much more than puzzles than the film counterpart, whereas in the film she is clever but not a historian or archaeology student who constantly educates us like she does throughout the game.
Good points
@@JadeLeaf1980 The Lara of the game series is also far more... Psychologically unstable due to the trauma of the first opus.
Camilla Luddington which did mo-cap and voices in reboot games and also face in Rise and Shadow of the Tomb Raider was perfect choice in my opinion a bit shame that they dont even consider to hire her :(
Alicia & Michael are like the (only?) gaming movie couple:
Alicia: Tomb Raider
Michael: Assassin’s Creed
I've prefer Magneto
Or Alien Covenant
Well Alicia's Tomb Raider was good, Fassbender's Assassin's Creed was bad
Both movies suck and unworthy of them.
@@ThePrinceofHisOwnKingdom no Alicia’s movie was amazing
She is one of those people that the more you think you know about her, the less you know. I love her.
She was amazing in Ex Machina, definitely recommend that movie if anyone hasn’t seen it
I have seen it
@Seth Organ pervert !!! But I agree with you thoo 😂😂😂
Well played Fassbender. Well played.
Is Alicia Vikander single?
*Alicia looks down at her marriege ring with soft smile*: NO
Алёна Грабовецкая she literally held up her ring hand. Before that, she was using her other hand! ❤️💕
Alicia Vikander is AMAZING for Lara Croft, they left a cliff hanger in the movie, so I hope there a part 2!
There will be! It's been confirmed!
@@garrettirwin8165 really? Where?
@@doniellenberg5300 unowned but probably 2020
@@doniellenberg5300 It's been announced, but there are very few details about its production. If they are moving forward with it, it's probably on hold due to the pandemic.

This is one of the ones that I wish went on longer. She is adorable, classy, funny. And she didn't blow through the questions like she wanted to be ANYWHERE but there, like some of them do. What a woman.
The fake polygons one made me laugh lmao
IllisMoreo Polygons are the blocks and bits (usually triangular shaped) to form 3D models, often talked about around games and model props.
Why it's so funny is because Lara Croft's first game model had a LOW polygon count, which made her very pointy - especially her nipples ;)
Lol yeah the first game had horrible graphics
NOOBRIDERR Well at the time it was state of the art because that was all the PS1 could handle. But of course compared to nowadays it looks terrible. And hello fellow noob.
Marcus Thorén i see
NOOBRIDERR no, it had decent graphics when it came out. Nothing really beat it. It's horrible compared to today's standards, yes.
She's so cute and sweet, I love her.
honestly only a matter of time before she wins another oscar very talented actress
'Swedish person ask for translation!' That was so cute 😂
I love what’s she wearing😍 she looks great
Senpai Hentai I don’t like what she’s wearing because it’s not nothing
Pear Lord meaning??
nawfal effendi I WANT TO SEE HER WEARING NOTHING
Senpai Hentai its a man
She's great in general
so a a weird way, based on three languages alone, she's kind Lara already
roguedogx i had a sroke reading that
She is absolutely fierce in Tomb Raider and yet somehow absolutely ADORABLE irl wow
she is so charming
So true !
She’s so adorable! Seen the movie already on Sunday and she’s amazing! She makes an awesome Lara Croft.
Tried the Swedish tongue twister: *"KHWAKKHKHWAKKHWAKKHAWKH"*
NAILED IT
Sju sjösjuka sjömän sköttes av sju sjösjuka sjuksköterskor på skeppet Shanghai.
I won't lie...I said I'll never watch the new Tomb Raider because nobody will be as good as Angelina Jolie.
After the first 30 minutes I realized I was wrong. The deeper I got into the movie, the more wrong I realize I was. Ended up being my favorite TR movie.
Same. I'm actually watching it for the first time now. It's not that I'd never I just didn't feel that drawn to it because I loved Jolie's. But, she is very very good. And they are very different.
They are both different takes on the character. Jolie's version is based on the first TR games, where Lara was already an established archeologist with a history of successfully raiding tombs. She's more confident and mature.
Vikander's version is based on the 2013 rebooted series and its sequels, in which Lara is still very young and inexperienced. She's still building up her reputation and making a name for herself. She is more conflicted and still struggling to come to terms with her profession and how dangerous it can be.
As a movie, I like the Vikander version better, but as a character I like Jolie's version better. But that's probably because I grew up with the early Tomb Raider games and came to identify Lara more with those games than I do with the rebooted version. I still like the reboot, but it didn't have as much of an impact on me as the originals did.
I still love jolie's version
The hate she is getting for being Lara Croft is ridiculous. The movie looks good, hope it does well
Webster Beats Watched it yesterday. Not the movie of the year, obviously, but she's perfect as Lara. She's got it completely. To be honest, I'm not surprised... Her incredible acting skills have never been a secret. Plus, she makes the character look as dynamic, agile and hot as she should be.
Now you've got me hyped. :p
if you're hoping for a movie story that matches the game story then you'll be disappointed. otherwise you may enjoy the movie quite a bit :)
Well it's good in a way since I don't wanna watch the same story again you know :)
I saw the movie. She is great as young Lara. She did a great job !
0:56 That's just the beginning of the tongue twister, though. It's "Sjuttisju sjösjuka sjöman sköttes av sju sköna sjuksköterskor på det sjunkande skeppet Shanghai" (Seventyseven seasick sailors was cared for by seven beautiful nurses on the sinking ship Shanghai".
Blimey ... Do you have any tongue left after saying that ?
Klassiker
The language of Gods and Heroes.
fun fact, you don't use your tongue much in this tongue-twister
‘Sorry it was not any Michael, it was Michael fassbender’. I don’t know why that still makes me laugh so hard. 😂
We went to see Tomb Raider in it's original language instead of the Spanish dubbed because of Alicia Vikander's voice and accent, so well suited the character of Lara as we know it now, had to drive a little longer to get a theater.
She's so cool, classy, beautiful and sophisticated. Love her!
She’s with Michael Fassbender, couple are both lucky af dude
She seems like such a beautiful person. Absolutely love her.
Completely fell in love with actress when I saw how hard she was training for Lara Croft movie. A perfect woman for perfect hard role to play she could brilliantly deal with!
Alicia Vikander, thanks for existing
Tomb Raider is married to Assassin’s Creed, pass it on.
James Lawner you're a dork
I WANNA BE MICHAEL FASSBENDER
When she pronounces her name in an British accent, I actually couldn’t tell that she was Swedish despite the fact that I speak Swedish myself. Until, of course when she changes her accent :)
I want to learn Swedish but I can’t get my mouth/tongue to make the sound when she pronounces her mothers name! 😭😭
@Dawn E I suppose you’re talking about the Rrrr, which was a challenge for me too when I first learned Swedish (not my native language either)
I can’t promise anything, but here’s my tip:
make your tongue bend upwards but not in a pointy way, make sure all edges of the tongue covers up the part just behind your upper teeth (U shape) .
Now if you’re doing this correctly, the center of your tongue shouldn’t be touching anything while all edges do, and you basically cannot breath with your mouth at all.
Then, inhale and cover up the channel which air passes through the nose (the same way when you say any word that builds pressure inside your mouth before releasing them, it’s all words that causes people to accidentally spit) make sure no air passes through the nose.
Lastly, relax your tongue while still maintaining its position and release the necessary required air out of the mouth instead, thus pushing your tongue to vibrate. (The same thing little kids does with their lips instead of tongue)
I hope that helps.
M3NG thank you for the detailed reply! It was actually the i sound I was talking about (sorry, should’ve specified) and I think that includes y and j... tongue seems to be in the roof of the mouth somewhere but dognamn it can I do it?? No!!
@Dawn E hahahaha I understand and no probs! 😄
However I wasn’t sure what you meant by Y and J, I’m pretty sure her mother’s name is spelled “Maria Fahl Vikander” so I couldn’t find any Y or J there, but I betting it’s the accent :)
Her accent 😍😍😍
I dont like it
the weird part is she is swedish. i am swedish and people dont have that accent, they have like swenglish accent
Give anyone a few years in England and it's more similar.
I just want an accent like that, you know, when you are french, i think we have the worst english accent in the world
Of course you have a "swenglish" accent if you dont talk english every day and learn it. If you live abroad and use it every day you will get better, Alicia lived in London for example and just listen to Skarsgård family, they have that "american" accent instead =)
My new goal in life is to become Magneto.
So we will have some problems ahaha, he is also a guy from assassin's creed (yeah the horrible movie)
David Stoneback You know they're divorced right? At least that's what I heard.
Wait they married last year and already divorced? Wtf?
Was she wearing the ring just for fun then?
corniel Like I said I could be wrong but I'm pretty sure I heard that somewhere. It might have been for a short time than they got back together.
I just watched one of her movies, she's such a good actress, she almost made me cry, movies never usually make me cry.
I have never seen a vision of perfection on a woman like this before. The accent just makes her a million times more charming.
"How did Alicia Vikander become Famous?" Ex Machina
"Is Alicia Vikander English?" No, but she did play a convincing Vera Brittain in Testament of Youth and I'm guessing that caused the confusion!
When I saw the movie, i thought that she was english but 3 days ago i learned that in fact she is swedish... So i have no excuses about my horrible french accent in english...
I think she became famous after "The danish girl" more than some random film.
Ex Machina was definitely not random. haha it's quite a cranial film so might not have appealed to everyone but it definitely put her name on the map!
Alicia vikander is

ADORABLE 👀
She has a wonderful voice and seems a humble person.
I love her just for the simple fact that we share the same name and pronounce it the same. And her talent of course !
Such a cool classy lady.
When you know what Alicia means by Michael’s dancing skills cause you have watched that graham norton interview
The recent movie she did based on the reboot of the Tomb Raider franchise in 2013 means a lot to me. The 2013 game helped me a lot with depression and insomnia plus the second game as well. She (in my opinion) was perfect in the roll of Laura Croft, when you see people tear up when they see the franchise they fell in love with as a kid come back after so many years that was me during the movie :)
I swear Alicia and Michael are the most beautiful couple in Hollywood .
Fassbender is a lucky man
I could listen to her speak all day.
Oh My God I love her 🤯😭 so unpretentious and straightforward. She clearly hasn't lost her humility and humanity on becoming famous
She is so cute when she speaks danish. I'm danish, and i could understand her fully. Good job!
I like her personality 😍
Alicia Vikander is my favorite actress!!
Her accent is everything 😂😂
I still see you everywhere, which means that I am everywhere as well..
She is so pretty and elegant 💗
I don't know how many times I've watched this and I don't care! I'll click on it every time it's suggested.
2:41 anyone here "Anime training" ? xD
Kris Cortez I do a LOT of anime training
Think she was saying MMA training which I imagine would be quite different
That’s what I heard too 😂
Heard that too
Same! 'Anime training' gang unites hahaha
Ey!! Her Danish is pretty good, only a bit accent.
alicia vikander is 1743 times prettier than i am
yea nobody said you were prettier than her
same
I'd do you mate don't worry
I'd like to know the equation you used
That's a very specific number...
she was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G in tomb raider. You gotta see it to believe
What a beautiful woman inside out.
And Michael is great as well, I'm happy for both of them!
Hope everyone finds their Alicia to their Michael (and vice-versa)
I was chuckling the whole time
Hold on... she's married to Magneto?!
yep
could say they are attracted to each other
Saltgurkan55 eyyyyyyy
A year ago.
The got married in september of 2017... I think.
love her voice and accent
HAHAHA “Swedish person ask for translation” 😭😭😭
She has a better English accent than me and I’m English.
Gah my gosh she's adorable. How does one individual person contain this much adorableness?
alicia and michael are one of the hottest couples out there. my bi heart is in pain
mooni black michael fassbender?
@@billyli5477 dunno
@@billyli5477 yes
Same gurl sameeee
Nah, Daniel Craig and Rachel Weiss imo are.
The very first things that came to my mind when I found out she was Swedish months ago, was the *"Pewdiepie swearing in Swedish"* video, I will never forget it.
It is part of my habit now to curse in Swedish (& Spanish & Samoan) when the situation says so.
She's super cool!! 3:56 I hear a little bit of Fassbender in there 😍😍
I'd say that was just her swedish accent shining through. Though the swedish and irish accent are similar at times so I get the confusion :D
(More specifically the pronunciation rather than the whole accent itself)
oh really! I didnt know that, thanks! They're both such lovely accents to listen to haha
Yeah, Fassbender's in her alright.
Daisy Ridley and Alicia Vikander's voices are my new favorite thing.
Great woman and great actress. Also you wouldn't think she was Swedish just by looking at her as she dosent have the usual Swedish looks
This woman is SO COOL! Love her accent and she did an Amazing job playing Lara Croft in the latest Tomb Raider Movie.
I can't wait to see Tomb Raider! She's so badass! 👏🏼
With no boob ? nah
Watched it earlier and it was worth it!
*Womb Raider
Science with Katie I hear good things
I want to see it but it won't hold a candle to the games storys and her performance won't be as good as Camilla luddingtons
What. A. Woman. She's basically perfect. Completely 'gets' Lara too.
Matt Broughton pleeeasse stoop
No
Other than the fact she doesn’t seem to know that Lara Croft is a video game character, yeah she gets her pretty well ...
disagree, she seems to both know and respect Lara. Haters gonna hate though I guess. She's so good in the film!
Matt Broughton too bad the film is a dumpster fire
she's so charming, elegant, classy YOU NAME IT!
She's AMAZING in this movie! Such a good actress
She seems like a really awesome person. Also, she perfect for Lara Croft, can't wait to see the movie
Michael and Alicia may be the coolest couple ever
she's just the most adorable human being I love her so much 🥺💚
When the actress is better than the character
Love her accent😻
The lara croft we have been waiting for!
Utkarsh Gupta No, no.
zZiL341yRj736 she might not have acted well but lookwise i think she is a good choice for lara croft!
Utkarsh Gupta absolutely right
Utkarsh Gupta you got it wrong m8 she acted well but she just doesn't look the part.
Utkarsh Gupta speak for your self m8
My favourite actress ATM, she’s so talented and lovely 💓
The movie was incredible, and someone who played Lara Croft on Playstation 1 as a kid, I believe this really satisfied all my needs, great video game adaptation!
