The character appears in the 2011 film The Thing and was portrayed by actor Ulrich Thomsen. Based on his language, he is actually Danish rather than Norwegian, but since Danish and Norwegian are like dialects of the same language, this would cause no major communication problems. How a Dane ended up as the lead researcher on a Norwegian base is not explained, but does in no way strain credibility, since there is much cooperation between the Scandinavian countries. His last name \"Halvorson\" is actually more typically Norwegian than Danish (the normal Danish form would be Halvorsen), so perhaps his family background is Norwegian."@en . . "Male"@en .
