Noomi Rapace Talks Breaking Her Nose on the Set of ‘Black Crab,’ How the Film Shows the ‘Human Side’ of War

Sasha Urban editorWhen it comes to acting roles, few compare to Noomi Rapace’s history of switching things up. Rapace is fluent in five languages, and the last two years have seen her acting in Icelandic (“Lamb”), Norwegian (“The Trip”), English (“The Secrets We Keep”), and even without any speaking at all, as her shape-shifting witch character does in the recent release “You Won’t Be Alone.”Now, Rapace is celebrating a homecoming with Adam Berg’s “Black Crab,” releasing on Netflix this Friday.

The film marks her return to Swedish cinema, more than 10 years after her groundbreaking success as Lisbeth in the “Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” trilogy.“Black Crab” takes place in a post-apocalyptic hellscape, where resources are scarce and an unexplained war seems to only get more unbearable.

Rapace plays the impenetrable Caroline Eid, whose young daughter is stolen from her by insurgent forces at the start of the conflict.

Seven years later, she’s still searching for her. Eid and a ragtag group of civilian soldiers are sent on a mission to deliver a mysterious package, which they’re told will end the war once and for all.
