Alexander Skarsgard Adds to Round Table Conversation

About a month ago, Alexander Skarsgard weighed in at the Emmy Roundtable organized by The Hollywood Reporter. He was joined by actors Matthew Fox (Lost), Ray Romano (Men of a Certain Age), Matt Bomer (White Collar), John Hamm (Mad Men) and Bryon Cranston (Breaking Bad) at Chateau Marmont in Los Angeles.

Skarsgard quips that he loves to watch himself on True Blood. “I’m blown away by my own performance! I’m like a drug to myself.” On a more serious tone, though, he is probably his own worst critic. “Every single scene, I’m like, “Oh man, way too big. That look is so redundant. Again with that flat delivery?” I really don’t enjoy it.” Hey, self-evaluation means growth, right Alexander?
