Nikolaj Coster-Waldau - Happy Sad Confused

What this episode covers

While “Game of Thrones” fans eagerly anticipate the show’s return for a seventh season this summer, “Happy Sad Confused” has a treat for you: breakout star Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. In this visit with Josh, the Danish actor gets real about his life and career, and nothing is off limits. From his alcoholic father to his ill-conceived choice to do coke to get into character for an early role, this chat is refreshingly honest. Oh, and he’s funny too! Coster-Waldau laughs about his near miss almost being cast as John Carter, why the “Game of Thrones” pilot had to be shot twice, and what fans can look forward to next season. Coster-Waldau is currently starring in the crime drama “Small Crimes” (out on Netflix now). Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices Learn more about your ad choices.
