Stellan Skarsgård could become the first male actor from Sweden to win an Oscar, according to reports. He is nominated for his role in the Norwegian film "Sentimental value," directed by Joachim Trier. The film, which references Ingmar Bergman, is reportedly a contender at the Oscars ceremony.
An Oscars expert in Hollywood, Pete Hammond, said he would not rule out Skarsgård's chance of winning. Max von Sydow previously came closest with two nominations but never won.
