biography:
Michael McElhatton, 12 Eylül 1963 tarihinde Dublin, İrlanda'da dünyaya gelmiştir. Terenure semtinde büyüyen oyuncu, sanat eğitimini Londra'daki dünyaca ünlü Kraliyet Dramatik Sanatlar Akademisi'nde (RADA) tamamlayarak 1987 yılında mezun olmuştur. Kariyerinin ilk yıllarında tiyatro sahnelerinde, özellikle Royal National Theatre ve Royal Court Theatre gibi prestijli mekanlarda deneyim kazanmıştır.

McElhatton'ın kariyerindeki ilginç bir detay, uluslararası izleyicilerin onu ciddi ve korkutucu rolleriyle tanımasına rağmen, memleketi İrlanda'da bir komedi ikonu olarak şöhret kazanmış olmasıdır. Senaryosunu da yazdığı sahte belgesel (mockumentary) tarzındaki komedi dizisi "Paths to Freedom" (2000) ve devam filmi "Spin the Bottle"da (2003) canlandırdığı "Rats" karakteri, İrlanda popüler kültüründe kült bir statüye sahiptir. Bu projedeki başarısı ona İrlanda Film ve Televizyon Akademisi (IFTA) ödülü kazandırmıştır.

Ancak McElhatton'ın küresel çapta bir yıldız haline gelmesi ve Hollywood kapılarını aralaması, HBO'nun fenomen dizisi "Game of Thrones" (2012-2016) ile gerçekleşmiştir. Dizide, Kuzey'in soğukkanlı, hesapçı ve acımasız lordu Roose Bolton karakterine hayat vermiştir. Özellikle televizyon tarihinin en şok edici anlarından biri olan "Kızıl Düğün" (The Red Wedding) sahnesindeki kilit rolü ve sergilediği tekinsiz, sessiz otorite, onu dizinin en unutulmaz kötü adamlarından biri yapmıştır.

Bu başarının ardından kariyerini yüksek profilli uluslararası yapımlarla sürdüren oyuncu, "The Fall" (2013) dizisinde Gillian Anderson ile birlikte rol almış, Guy Ritchie'nin "Kral Arthur: Kılıç Efsanesi" (2017) ve Zack Snyder'ın "Justice League" (2017) gibi büyük bütçeli filmlerinde yer almıştır. Ayrıca, eleştirmenlerce övülen "Chernobyl" (2019) mini dizisinde savcı Andrei Stepashin karakterini ve Amazon Prime'ın epik fantezi dizisi "Zaman Çarkı"nda (The Wheel of Time) (2021) ana karakterin babası Tam al'Thor'u canlandırarak çok yönlü bir karakter oyuncusu olduğunu kanıtlamıştır.

Flikken

overview:
Flikken was a popular Flemish-Belgian TV series about a police-department located in Ghent. The show started in 1999 and ended recently on 19 April 2009. In the series, a team of six police officers solved various crimes, petty crimes as well as organised crime. The series always aimed at showing the policework in a realistic way - though a little personal drama was never far off. Of all the actors that came along during the ten seasons, only Mark Tijsmans and Ludo Hellinx appeared throughout the entire series.

Flikken was produced by the VRT and broadcast on Belgian public channel Eén and TROS in the Netherlands. Flikken is very popular in Belgium and the Netherlands. The show has had very high ratings of up to 1.8 million viewers during the last season.

Every year the VRT organises the Flikkendag, a family day where the public can meet the actors of the show. There are many games, demonstrations of the real police and other safety organisations and performances of singers. On 18 April 2009, a special farewell party was organised in Ghent, in which the actors and crew said goodbye to their fans - thousands had assembled to watch the show on stage.

biography:
Matthias Schoenaerts est un acteur et graffeur belge, né le 8 décembre 1977 à Anvers.

Révélé par Bullhead en 2011, il apparaît d'abord dans des productions françaises comme De rouille et d'os (2012) et Maryland (2015), puis s’internationalise avec Quand vient la nuit (2014), Suite française (2015), Loin de la foule déchaînée (2015), Danish Girl (2015) ou A Bigger Splash (2015).

En 2013, il remporte le César du meilleur espoir masculin pour De rouille et d'os, devenant ainsi le premier acteur belge à remporter la statuette. Il est fait chevalier de l'ordre des Arts et des Lettres en 2015.

Fils de l'acteur flamand Julien Schoenaerts, il est parfaitement bilingue néerlandais et français grâce, notamment, à une grand-mère liégeoise. Il parle également couramment anglais.

Élève du Conservatoire royal d'Anvers, Matthias Schoenaerts monte sur les planches pour la première fois, aux côtés de son père, à l'âge de 8 ans. Il fait ses débuts au cinéma à 15 ans et tient le petit rôle de Wannes Scholliers dans le film Daens, de son compatriote Stijn Coninx, où son père interprète l'évêque de Gand, Antoine Stillemans.

Il apparaît dans un épisode des séries télévisées Flikken en 2001 et Stille waters en 2002. Cette même année, Dorothée Van Den Berghe le choisit afin de jouer Oscar, un fils révolté en conflit avec son père colérique, dans son premier long métrage remarqué Meisje. En 2003, il est au générique d'un autre premier long métrage, celui du réalisateur Tom Barman, Any Way the Wind Blows. Après ce film, on le retrouve jusqu'en 2005, quasi consécutivement dans huit courts métrages, et le long métrage Ellektra, de Rudolf Mestdagh, où le père de Matthias tourne pour la dernière fois avant son décès survenu le 7 septembre 2006.

En 2006, il incarne Dennis, ce garçon de 26 ans libéré après avoir purgé une peine de prison pour viol, dans Dennis van Rita de Hilde Van Mieghem. Paul Verhoeven lui offre cette même année le rôle de Joop dans Black Book, un drame se déroulant à La Haye, sous l'occupation allemande. Il joue ensuite dans Nadine, de Erik de Bruyn et De muze, de Ben van Lieshout (2007), Loft, d'Erik Van Looy, Left Bank (Linkeroever), de Pieter Van Hees (2008) et My Queen Karo, le deuxième long métrage de Dorothée Van Den Berghe (2009). En 2010, après son rôle de Samuel Verbist dans Pulsar, d'Alex Stockman, il est engagé pour la première fois par un réalisateur français, en l'occurrence Franck Richard, pour son film fantastique La Meute, dont les têtes d'affiche sont Yolande Moreau, Émilie Dequenne et Benjamin Biolay.

En 2011, il crève l'écran dans Bullhead (Rundskop), de Michaël R. Roskam. Il y incarne Jacky Vanmarsenille, un éleveur bovin flamand, irascible et dopé aux hormones; l'acteur a dû prendre trente kilogrammes de muscles pour incarner le personnage. ...

biography:
Matthias Schoenaerts, 8 Aralık 1977 tarihinde Anvers, Belçika'da dünyaya gelmiştir. Sanatla iç içe bir ailede büyüyen Schoenaerts, Belçika'nın efsanevi aktörlerinden Julien Schoenaerts'in oğludur. Bu durum, onun erken yaşta oyunculuk dünyasıyla tanışmasını sağladı. İlk oyunculuk deneyimini henüz 13 yaşındayken, babasıyla birlikte rol aldığı ve Akademi Ödülü'ne aday gösterilen "Daens" (1992) adlı filmde yaşadı. Gençlik yıllarında grafiti sanatına da ilgi duyan Schoenaerts, oyunculuk kariyerine odaklanmaya karar vererek Anvers'teki Dramatik Sanatlar Akademisi'nde eğitim aldı.

Kariyerinin başlarında Belçika ve Hollanda'da çeşitli film ve televizyon projelerinde yer aldı. Ancak onu uluslararası sinema sahnesine taşıyan ve kariyerinde bir dönüm noktası olan rol, 2011 yapımı "Rundskop" (Bullhead) filmi oldu. Filmde, hormonlu sığır ticareti yapan ve steroid bağımlısı sorunlu bir çiftçi olan Jacky Vanmarsenille'i canlandırdı. Bu rol için geçirdiği inanılmaz fiziksel dönüşüm ve sergilediği yoğun, içgüdüsel performans, ona dünya çapında büyük bir beğeni kazandırdı. Film, En İyi Yabancı Dilde Film dalında Akademi Ödülü'ne aday gösterildi ve Schoenaerts'in adını Hollywood'un en yetenekli yeni nesil aktörleri arasına yazdırdı.

"Bullhead"in getirdiği başarının ardından Schoenaerts, hızla uluslararası projelerde yer almaya başladı. 2012 yılında, Jacques Audiard'ın yönettiği ve Marion Cotillard ile başrolü paylaştığı "De rouille et d'os" (Rust and Bone) filmindeki performansıyla büyük beğeni topladı. Bu filmdeki rolüyle Fransa'nın Oscar'ı olarak kabul edilen César Ödülleri'nde En Çok Umut Vadeden Erkek Oyuncu ödülünü kazandı.

Bu noktadan sonra kariyeri Hollywood ve Avrupa sineması arasında mekik dokudu. "The Drop" (2014) filminde Tom Hardy, "Far from the Madding Crowd" (2015) filminde Carey Mulligan ve "The Danish Girl" (2015) filminde Eddie Redmayne ve Alicia Vikander gibi önemli isimlerle birlikte rol aldı. Tilda Swinton ve Ralph Fiennes ile birlikte rol aldığı "A Bigger Splash" (2015) ve Jennifer Lawrence ile başrolü paylaştığı casusluk-gerilim filmi "Red Sparrow" (2018) gibi filmlerle de tanınırlığını artırdı.

2020 yılında, Charlize Theron ve KiKi Layne ile birlikte rol aldığı Netflix'in aksiyon filmi "The Old Guard"da ölümsüz savaşçılardan biri olan Booker karakterine hayat verdi. Son olarak, Steven Knight tarafından yaratılan ve büyük beğeni toplayan "The Regime" adlı mini dizide Kate Winslet ile başrolü paylaşarak bir kez daha yeteneğini gözler önüne serdi. Matthias Schoenaerts, canlandırdığı karakterlere kattığı fiziksel güç, ham duygu ve derinlikle tanınan, kuşağının en karizmatik ve en yetenekli aktörlerinden biri olarak kabul edilmektedir.
