Biography
Christopher Dane is the stage name of Danish actor Lars Knudsen. He graduated as an actor from LIPA in 2002 and headed to London with a BA Honours First and the Paul McCartney Award in his pocket. He honed his skills in Fringe Theatre and landed his first professional theatre job in Phyllida Lloyd’s 2006 award-winning Donmar Warehouse production of MARY STUART. His love for the screen, however, has since then taken his career—both as an actor and as a produced writer—into the British Film Industry, and his CV now includes scores of features and countless short films. In 2009, his Scandinavian roots added to the impact of his lead role as Aragorn’s father Arathorn in BORN OF HOPE, the independent Lord of the Rings prequel, which has now amassed more than 55 million online views and a four-star review by Wendy Ide in The Guardian. “Christopher Dane is genuinely effective as [Arathorn] the noble warrior and orc-slaughterer.” He won the Best Actor Award at the London Independent Film Festival for his acclaimed portrayal of John Foster in the British comedy drama BEING SOLD, directed by award-winning director Phil Hawkins. He has also won multiple awards for the online series Ren – The Girl With the Mark, which he co-created with director Kate Madison. Christopher made his television debut in 2013 in the hit BBC drama series CALL THE MIDWIFE, which drew in over 10 million viewers, followed by appearances in DR WHO, THE BRIDGE, EASTENDERS, DOCTORS, THE HALCYON, and the Channel 4 comedy series HOME. 2020 saw the release of the award-winning suspense horror feature THE UNFAMILIAR, and in 2021 he appeared in the Belgian drama SAVING SANDRA as well as the Scottish-based crime drama ANNIKA on UKTV starring Nicola Walker. 2023 saw the release of THE YOU RUN, and in 2024 he reunited with director Phil Hawkins in the SKY Original feature ROBIN AND THE HOOD. In 2025, he is looking forward to the premiere of the highly anticipated CBBC animated series PIRIPENGUINS, where he voices FLUTTER—the one penguin disaster machine!
