Besides The Big Lebowski, and Fargo (wherein he stuffs
his partner-in-crime through a wood chipper), Peter
Stormare also appeared in an episode of Seinfeld, in
which he plays rogue electrician "Slippery Pete", who
helps George Costanza in his quest to transport a
Frogger arcade game while preserving his all-time high
score. Stormare also currently appears in the TV
series Prison Break.

According to Wikipedia, "He has also played Carl
Hamilton, a fictional Swedish secret agent similar to
James Bond". I don't know which is most unlikely: a
SWEDISH secret agent, or Stormare playing a tough guy
named CARL HAMILTON (?!)

But my favorite is his role as Lev Andropov, the
lonely and possibly insane Russian cosmonaut in
Armageddon. In one scene, as the joint
Russian-American space station is in imminent danger
of exploding, with warning klaxons going off, he
argues with an American astronaut.

Andropov: "Excuse me, but I think I know how to fix
this."
Watts: "Move it! You don't know the components!"
Andropov: [annoyed] "Components."
[He pushes the astronaut aside, rips the offending
circuits from their boards, and the ship lurches
forward, saving the day.] "American components,
Russian Components, ALL MADE IN TAIWAN!"
