Mads Mikkelsen is one of the Danish men rocking Hollywood. A famous figure in his country, Denmark, Mads has since established himself in Hollywood and around the world. He has acted in French and German films with star projects in Bollywood.

The raspy-voiced actor is among Hollywood’s favorite cast of villains, having portrayed him in a slate of films from the 2006 Bond film to Valhalla Rising (2009) and a number of Marvel films.

Mads is a versatile actor who doesn’t like it, so it didn’t come as much of a surprise when he showcased his talents on the small screen to play the titular character in NBC’s psychological thriller. Hannibal which won him a Saturn Award for Best Actor in its first season. The show ended in 2015 and Mads has since returned to his mainstay – the silver screen. Some of his films since then have been included; Rogue One: A Story of Star Wars, Arctic, and Chaos March. Let’s talk more about his personal side.

Mads Mikkelsen’s wife and children

Mads is a happily married man. As you might know (if you’re a huge Mads fan), Mads aspired to be a gymnast and then found himself dancing at a certain ballet academy called Balettakademien in Gothenburg, the second largest city in Sweden.

What does this have to do with his wife? It was long after Mads had completed his dance training and started a career in dance that he met a certain choreographer called Hanne Jacobsen, who would become his future wife.

Their initial meeting was actually at an audition for a play at the Aarhus Theater in 1987. At the time, Jacobsen already had years of experience as a dancer. Although they had been in relationships with other people when they met, they both hugged and started dating, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Mads’ wife was born on January 13, 1961, making her four years older than Mads, who was born on November 22, 1965. Unlike Mads who has a brother, his wife Hanne is an only child.

The couple married in 2000 on December 2 and about 5 years after they got together, Mads’ career started moving at the speed of a jet plane. It was about to put a strain on their marriage before Hanne decided to end her career in 2009 to focus on managing her family.

Hanne’s dancing skills saw her appear in two Danish television shows, including Alletiders Jul (1994), Alletiders Nisse (1995) and Pyrus i alletiders eventyr (2000).

Hanne and Mads share two children, they have a son, Carl Jacobsen Mikkelsen, born in 1997, and a daughter, Viola Jacobsen Mikkelsen, born in 1992.

His brother – Lars Mikkelsen

Mads Mikkelsen has a brother called Lars Mikkelsen whom he grew up with in Nørrebro, Copenhagen, Denmark. Born on May 6, 1964, Lars is barely a year older.

Seeing both brothers active in entertainment, one would be forced to speculate that they received it from their parents, however, neither parent was in entertainment. Their father, Henning Mikkelsen, was a union leader and bank teller, while their mother, Bente Christiansen, was a nurse.

Lars was studying for a degree in biology at the University of Copenhagen before his passion for performing forced him to drop out. He then began a career as a miming and juggling street performer. Subsequently, at the age of 27, Lars returned to school, this time to hone his performing skills. He graduated in 1995 and in 1997 he started giving concerts.

Like his brother Mads, Lars went from being a Danish star to a Hollywood and an internationally recognized act. He played the villainous lead role of Charles Augustus Magnussen in the British television series Sherlock. American series fans will remember him most for his role as Russian President Viktor Petrov in House of Cards. Lars is married to Danish actress Anette Støvelbæk. They married in 1989 and share two sons together. Lue and Thor Mikkelsen.

Mads Mikkelsen’s height and teeth

Mads Mikkelsen stands at an impressive height of 6 feet, or 1.83m.

One physical peculiarity of Mads that intrigues his fans are his teeth. Both of her canines are fang-shaped, a feature that complements her high cheekbones to make the perfect villain.
