(The Family Man) and produced with Amazon Studios.

Møller will next be seen in the upcoming BBC Two miniseries The North Water opposite Colin Farrell and Jack O’Connell. He won the Bodil Award for Best Actor in a Leading Role for Land of Mine, which premiered at the 2015 TIFF and Sundance. Møller also won Best Actor in a Supporting role for Northwest, and received a nomination for his performance in Michael Noer’s prison film R, as well as Tobias Lindholm’s A Hijacking.
