Life

Annika Susanne Hallin grew up in the 1970s as the daughter of an architect and a civil engineer in the Stockholm district of Spånga-Tensta . She and her two younger sisters were raised by a childminder in a city apartment. As a key experience, she states that it was her visit to the musical Annie in Östermalm in 1979 that motivated her to become more involved in acting, so that she took acting lessons while she was still at school. She pursued this more and more over the years, while her school performance suffered more and more. From 1995 she studied acting at the Teaterhögskolan in Stockholm and until her graduation in 2000 lived according to her own statements below the poverty line because she played in theaters that could not afford salaries. Only after receiving her acting diploma did she get paid roles.

She became internationally known for her role as Annika Giannini in the Millennium Trilogy by Stieg Larsson . Parallel to the third film in the Millennium series Forgiveness , Hallin shot the mini-crime series Morden as the lead actress Fanny Popescu , in which her role was rewritten because of her pregnancy. When she gave birth to her daughter during production, she was given a dummy after a short maternity leave and continued to play a pregnant woman. The lead role in Morden made Hallin famous in Sweden, as the series saw between 500,000 and 800,000 viewers on the Swedish public television broadcaster Sveriges Television .

Hallin is with the 24-year-old Swedish playwright Lars Norén , with whom she has the youngest of her three daughters. She met Norén in 2002 at the Riksteatern in Stockholm when he was staging his self-written play Stilla vatten . He currently works in Gothenburg while she lives in Stockholm.
