Watch: ‘This or That’ with Malin Åkerman

By Vogue Scandinavia's Video Team

In our latest digital cover, Malin Åkerman opens up about the her personal and professional reinvention. So how well do we really know the Hollywood star? We sit down for a round of 'this and that' to find out

Malin Åkerman's blue-eyed, girl-next-door energy has been a mainstay on our screens for as long as we can remember, with the Swedish-Canadian LA-based star lighting up some of our favourite rom-coms, action flicks and HBO series for decades. So it's natural that we feel like we know her, but do we really?

On set of our latest digital cover shoot, Åkerman sits down for a game of 'This and That'. Things start out easy: 'action or romance?', 'script or improv?', 'ice skating or ice hockey?'. But then we push a little harder, switching to Swedish and delving into the big questions: 'köttbullar or gravad lax?', 'kaviar or sill?' and 'IKEA or designer'?

Hit play below to get to know the real Åkerman.
