All Bill Skarsgård Movies and TV Ranked by Tomatometer

(Photo by IT / Courtesy Everett Collection. Warner Bros.) The son of legendary actor Stellan Skarsgård, and the younger brother of Emmy award-winning actor Alexander Skargård, Bill Skarsgård has carved out a reputation for playing monsters, weirdos, and psychopaths. While having started his career as a child actor, he first gained major recognition for playing the disturbed Roman Godfrey in Hemlock Grove, before landing his first major American role in The Divergent Series: Allegiant.  Then came his breakout role as Pennywise in the box-office hit IT. Critics praised Skarsgård’s terrifying performance, bringing to life Stephen King’s horror icon with a laugh that lingers and haunts us far after the credits have rolled. Skarsgård would go on to play Pennywise a few more times in IT: Chapter Two and IT: Welcome to Derry, but portraying alien killer clowns aren’t the only times Skarsgård has scared the pants off of us: He played an undead vigilante in The Crow remake, a relentless vampire in Nosferatu, and an eccentric stranger in Barbarian. And when he wasn’t scaring us, he was either kicking ass, like in the Sam Raimi-produced Boy Kills World, or getting his ass kicked as the bad guy in John Wick: Chapter 4. In celebration of his blood-soaked career, we’ve collected all Bill Skarsgård movies and television shows, and sorted them by Tomatometer. Check out our list to see where your favorites rank! —Bryce Marrero #1 Critics Consensus: John Wick: Chapter 4 piles on more of everything -- and suggests that when it comes to a well-dressed Keanu Reeves dispatching his enemies in lethally balletic style, there can never be too much.

But before he can earn his freedom, Wick [More] #2 Critics Consensus: Smart, darkly humorous, and above all scary, Barbarian offers a chilling and consistently unpredictable thrill ride for horror fans.

When Russell becomes the target of [More] #8 Critics Consensus: Atomic Blonde gets enough mileage out of its stylish action sequences -- and ever-magnetic star -- to make up for a narrative that's somewhat less hard-hitting than its protagonist.

When Eddie [More] #16 Critics Consensus: It: Chapter Two proves bigger doesn't always mean scarier for horror sequels, but a fine cast and faithful approach to the source material keep this follow-up afloat.
