Icelandic former Swimmer, turned actress, known for playing Gunnhild on Vikings. On e-talent she listed her height as 1.88m and on another online resume: "Weight 164 lbs"
I am 188cm (6ft2in) and even in my days modeling, I was sometimes just sent home from set because no one seemed to realize how tall I was before booking me. So when I started watching Vikings, I could just see myself there.
Not long after, I was offered the part and started working a few months later. I loved it, I felt like my height was an asset and not a hindrance for the first time in my acting career and I got to be a strong warrior and a soft feminine queen as well.
