Björne Larson (right) with Fares Fares.
Björne was born in Sweden on 27th October 1973. He's married to Lisa and got a little daughter called Lily.
He was working in marketing and had his own advertising agency for 6 years, Pepsi was one of his costumers.
Nowadays he's a director, writer and producer.
It was his dream to start something on his own in a field where his family can't help him. That's one of the reasons that drew him to the entertainment industry.
He likes to travel around and switching between LA and Stockholm, because he doesn't like being stagnant. But he's considering settling down in Sweden, once his daughter is 6 and starts school, because he doesn't think that she wants to grow up as an american teenager.
He stayed at home for 2 months with his wife after Lily was born.
For his productions he loves to work with more women, independently of the "traditionally" female jobs at movie productions because there are so many guys in this industry.
He thinks his female side is stronger than his male side and he prefers emotional stories.

PUDDIIIIING!
Personally I think no one can outmatch Tim Burton and Johnny Depp collaboration, but I would love to see those two as well! So, girls, when we are starting?
