Ola Rapace, maybe best known for his role as a Bond villain Patrice in “Skyfall” (2012), will bring his show to Vaasa, Finland on 8th of October 2025. In his lecture “Förlåt, det blev fel!” (“Sorry, it went wrong!”) he reveals the human Ola – in depth, behind the spotlight and celebrity.

Ola Rapace is one of Sweden’s leading actors, with a long and impressive track record that includes the Wallander series, “Tusenbröder“, “Together“, “White Trash” and a large number of films, TV and theatre productions. Since his breakthrough in 1999, he has been mentioned several times in the media.

A few years ago, Ola Rapace published his debut book “Romeo: Min flykt i fem akter“, in which he writes with naked self-revelation and brutal honesty about reaching rock bottom and fighting back.

Ola Rapace (Patrice) in “Skyfall“:

Patrice first appeared in the pre-title sequence of “Skyfall“, having killed the MI6 Operative Ronson (Bill Buckhurst) as well as other members of the agency in order to pilfer a list with the identities of all MI6 undercover field agents. M (Judi Dench) orders James Bond (Daniel Craig) and Eve Moneypenny (Naomie Harris) to follow him. A few moments after Patrice slips from the MI6 safehouse and drives away in his black Audi A5, Bond and Moneypenny begin their pursuit. Upon discovering that he was being tailed, Patrice initiated a high speed car chase that attracted the attention of several local police officers. After crashing his car as a result of the actions of Bond and Moneypenny, Patrice drew a Glock 18, loaded with a 100-round magazine, and murdered several police officials and bystanders to ease his escape. Patrice then took one of the police officer’s motorbikes and tries to get away, but was pursued by Bond.

After a chase through a market, Patrice was stopped by Eve, pointing a Walther PPK at him. Through clever movements among the confusing streets, Patrice manages to get on top of a moving train, though Bond managed to keep up, if only just. With Eve chasing after them in the Land Rover, Bond managed to catch up with Patrice and they began a bloody gunfight that saw both of them wounded, with Patrice using his gun and a 33-round magazine. After Bond’s gun ran dry and he uses construction equipment being carried by the train to entrap the fleeing fugitive, Patrice manages to shoot Bond in the shoulder, though the agent managed to keep up even after the last of Patrice’s bullets were expended in an effort to several the ties that bound his car to Bond’s own. Bond managed to catch up with Patrice once again and, out of bullets, they savagely fight with their hands, ducking to avoid a tunnel as Eve attempts to keep up. On orders from an irritated M, Moneypenny fires her rifle to kill Patrice despite her lack of a clear shot. She accidentally hits Bond, who fell to his apparent death in the river. Amused by this turn of events, Patrice glanced with feign gratitude at Moneypenny before completing his escape. He then took the hard drive to the hideout of his employer, former MI6 agent Raoul Silva (Javier Bardem), on Hashima Island so that a plan to avenge his abandonment by the agency might be brought into fulfillment.

As a result of his success, Patrice is offered continued work with Silva involving his operations in Shanghai; this would prove to be his downfall. Some months following the apparent death of Bond, and immediately on the heels of a deadly explosion at MI6 headquarters, Bond returns to the service from which he had unceremoniously retired by “enjoying death” and swiftly tracked down Patrice. The bullet that had hit his shoulder proved to be beneficial, as it was a unique type of ammunition used by Patrice, who MI6 had by then identified as being Bond’s earlier opponent. Following this lead to Shanghai, Bond pursued his would-be killer through the floors of an office building; Patrice silently and mercilessly killed two security guards with his Glock 17 to access this building, for the purpose of using its vicinity to a nearby apartment building to assassinate a prominent art critic, wanted dead as part of an unknown contract.

Immediately after this last successful kill, for which he had used his own Sniper Rifle Patrice was confronted by Bond, who managed to beat his old opponent in a fistfight which culminated with Patrice hanging off the side of the building. Bond demanded the name of his employer, but Patrice did not yield, and instead slipped from Bond’s grip and let out a terrified sound as he fell to the pavement dozens of stories below.

It was in his rifle case that Bond found his next clue, a gold token for a particular casino in Shanghai. It was through his efforts there that Bond eventually managed to kill Patrice’s employer, though not before the data Patrice had procured was partially leaked, resulting in the deaths of several undercover NATO agents.
