The Swedish sensation builds on her Hollywood success with roles as an action heroine, a producer —and a newlywed.
It’s been a banner year for Alicia Vikander: She premiered Euphoria, her first film as a producer as well as a star, at the Toronto Film Festival; she tackled the iconic role of Lara Croftin the action-adventure reboot slated for 2018; and she married her love of three years, Michael Fassbender. The 29-year-old Swedish native, whose first film in English was 2012’s Anna Karenina, looks back on a dizzying career that has already netted her an Oscar. “I was so hungry,” she says of landing her first role, in the drama Pure, seven years ago. “I still am.”
