15 Movies and TV Shows That Prove Mads Mikkelsen Is a Jack of All Trades

If you're used to seeing Mikkelsen play more villainous roles, you need to check out 2012's "A Royal Affair." He stars as physician Johann Friedrich Struensee, who falls in love and begins an affair with Princess Caroline Matilda of Great Britain (Oscar-winner Alicia Vikander, who had to learn how to speak Dutch in just two months for her role). It's tragic and romantic, and a must watch for anyone looking to see the actor's softer side.
