História

A Scandinavian actor known for Corridor (2012) Ego ( 2013 ) and Guidance ( 2009 ). He grew up in Botswana, Africa with five elder siblings, and parents working as doctors.

His interest for acting started already as a young boy when he starred in the school theatre plays and his mother came from a family of Jewish actors, artists and musicians, but after the war they were spread all over the world. Coming back to Norway as a teenager, Emil started to pursue his acting career, and he left for New York City and Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute.
