Stellan Skarsgård Says 13-Year-Old Son Is Bullied as a 'Nepo Baby' in New Interview

In a Vulture interview for Sentimental Value, he rejected the “nepo baby” tag, joking he is a “nepo daddy.”

Overview

  • Skarsgård said his youngest son, Kolbjörn, is called a “nepo baby” at school and feels sad and isolated because of the taunts.
  • He criticized the label as “bullshit,” arguing that lasting roles depend on ability rather than family ties.
  • He described himself as a “nepo daddy,” saying his children’s success brings him goodwill and possibly work, though he did not recommend them for jobs.
  • The actor disclosed he had a stroke about three years ago and now uses an on‑set earpiece with prompting to navigate lines as he continues working.
  • The remarks surfaced during promotion for Sentimental Value, and outlets note Kolbjörn’s own credits, including the series Blood Cruise and an early role in Clark; there are no independent reports on the school situation beyond Skarsgård’s account.
