2015 was probably her year

[Alicia Vikander](https://movietube.online/actors/227454-alicia-vikander "Alicia Vikander") was perhaps unknown to many as late as the year 2015. But the year’s commencement decanted innumerable laurels-nominations and acclaims for her. Born in Sweden, she endeavored to build her foundation stone of career by debuting in television serials and short films. Her first film debut was 'Pure’ that was released in 2010 and earned her GuldBagge award for best actress. However, being largely confined to local theater, she was known internationally after partaking as an actress in the movie Royal Star that was released in 2012. In the following months, we will find Alicia Vikander ubiquitous. She after putting much shoulder to wheel, appeared in 7 films in 2015. Currently based in London, she is in the cross hairs – or you can say, limelight – for many international magazines, eager to deem this year as an year of Alicia Vikander. Being overwhelmed with work, she hadn’t even known her neighbors for two and half years of her stay in London Apartment. “It took me two-and-a-half years of living here with just three bags, but it has just about started to feel like home”, says Alicia Vikander in an interview to Guardian. She is a woman equipped with unmatched, peerless talents. When she auditioned in 2011 for her landmark 'The royal affair’, she was offered by the screen-writer director a role of Danish Queen Caroline Mathilde. Notwithstanding the fact that she didn’t know Danish at all, she unhesitatingly accepted the role and resolved to learn Danish language. To say that she is engrossed in her work and have no regard for kith and kin abroad, is totally unwarranted. She is woman of family and misses immensely her relatives and friends abroad. Oscar-winning actor Issac, reckons about Alicia that she remains wholly concentrated and focused during shoot. “She is so supremely focused she seems almost ageless. She's an old soul and incredible talent, who I'd really like to work with again” Her life-changing roles in twin films, [Testament of Youth](https://movietube.online/movies/284689-testament-of-youth-2014 "Testament of Youth") and [Ex Machina](https://movietube.online/movies/264660-ex-machina-2015 "Ex Machina"), revolutionized her career. The former garnered critical endorsement from the critics, alongside voluminous pouring of applause for the actress. Her role as an iconic Pacifist in Testament of Youth earned her a nomination of BIFA award for Best performance by an Actress. For working in Ex Machina, she received nomination for BAFTA award for Best Actress in supporting role. The piece de resistance of her career, however, is [The Danish Girl](https://movietube.online/movies/306819-the-danish-girl-2015 "The Danish Girl") which has been nominated for Oscar and many critics are terming her as one of the best in the year (2015). ![](https://blog.movietube.online/uploads/ex-machina.jpg) _Alicia Vikander in Ex Machina_ Few are lucky enough to star with the one who they have been a staunch fan of. With sheer exhilaration, she finally spilled the beans that she is going to star with Matt Damon in the forthcoming fifth installment of the Jason Bourne series! “I hadn’t met Matt, I was just the biggest fan. He’s very funny on set and then he’s just extremely cool as Bourne, but we all know that.” (Alicia Vikander) ![](https://blog.movietube.online/uploads/the-danish-girl.jpg) _Alicia Vikander and Eddie Redmayne in The Danish Girl_ Mostly preoccupied with work, she carves out time for herself and her personal life. She has been dating Micheal Fassbender. Speculations about their separation became rife when they didn’t walk together on red-carpet at Palms Spring Film Festival but were soon put to rest. With virtually ensconced in international showbiz, much has yet to be seen and discovered in multi-pronged, much-acclaimed actress, and perhaps much to be untapped of her in the coming years.
