Jan Ohlsson
Jan Torsten Ohlsson , also Jan Torsten Olsson (born June 3, 1962 in Uppsala , Sweden ) is a former Swedish child actor . He was best known for the TV series Michel from Lönneberga , which was based on the books by Astrid Lindgren .
Life
After the Michel films, Ohlsson also starred in two other films that have not yet become known in Germany: Terror of Frankenstein (1977) and Dante - Beware of Shark (1978). Ohlsson wanted to become an actor after the success of the Michel films, but due to the comparative acting with his role in the Michel films, he changed his career aspirations and now works as a systems engineer in a computer company.
Jan Ohlsson has two children and refuses any contact with the press or the public - including TV appearances - as he no longer wants to be associated with his former role as Michel from Lönneberga .
