Mads told the outlet that “to do something real and also be a cutie pie — I don’t really find it interesting,” while speaking about the roles he tends to take.
He added that he’s “not into the ‘hair falling in your eyes, be cute in a corner.’ Not me. The losers are fun. Because we know them. You might have been in that situation yourself sometimes.”
Mads also spoke about how playing the villain in movies gives him more creative freedom on not just the character, but the movie as a whole.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll definitely do this, because it’s fun,” he says. “And then I can do whatever I want back in Europe.”
