Biography

Vic Carmen Sonne is an actor, writer, director based in Copenhagen, Denmark. In 2016, she graduated from the Danish National School of Performing Arts, without prior formal education, and as the youngest applicant ever accepted.

This dedication has manifested through nonconformist narratives, challenging stereotypes, and societal norms and is a defining feature of her filmography. 

She got her breakthrough in Rasmus Heisterberg's In the Blood, for which she received her first Bodil Award in 2017 for Best Supporting Actress. The same year, she received a Robert Award for her supporting role in Hlynur Pálmason's Winter Brothers, and she got her second Bodil Award in 2019 for her leading role in Isabella Eklöf's Holiday (2018).
Vic's career spans both television and film, and this year she stars in Milad Alami's limited series Bullshit, in E.L. Katz' horror film Azrael, and in Magnus von Horn's The Girl with the Needle, which premiered in the main competition at the Cannes Film Festival, and is Denmark's official Oscar contender.
Her upcoming projects include the spectacular Netflix series The Helicopter Heist, created by Ronnie Sandahl and directed by Daniel Espinosa, and Miguel Angel Jimenéz' tycoon family drama The Birthday Party, in which she stars alongside Willem Dafoe.
