Alexander Skarsgård is opening up about how being a dad has completely flipped his approach to his demanding acting career, admitting he can’t be as self-centered as he used to be. People Magazine reported that the 49-year-old actor recently shared some rare comments about life with his child, whom he shares with Swedish actress Tuva Novotny.
Skarsgård admitted that his life used to revolve entirely around his profession, which meant constant travel and long periods away from home. He actually loved that aspect of his work, saying he “lived on the road.” He added, “I love that aspect of the industry, you’re a traveling circus.” However, now that family is in the picture, Skarsgård said that he is focused on balance, to make sure he can “be present for my kid.”
