Michiel Huisman
Michiel Huisman (born 18 July 1981) is a Dutch actor, musician and singer-songwriter born in Amstelveen, recognized for his roles in Dutch and international film and television projects.
Huisman's music career began as the singer and guitarist for a Dutch band called Fontane, which released singles and was featured on movie soundtracks in the early 2000s. After the band split, he pursued a solo music career, releasing an album and singles.
His acting career started with roles in the Dutch soap opera Goede tijden, slechte tijden (1998). He later appeared in Dutch films including Costa! (2001), Phileine Says Sorry (2003) and Black Book (2006), and in the Dutch TV series De co-assistent (2007–10) and Bloedverwanten (2010).
Huisman's first international acting experience came in 2006, when he guest-starred in the British TV series Dalziel and Pascoe. Huisman played Sonny in HBO's Treme and replaced Ed Skrein as Daario Naharis in Game of Thrones, joining as a series regular. His filmography includes roles in films such as Wild (2014), The Ottoman Lieutenant (2017), The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society (2018), and the Discovery Channel's miniseries Harley and the Davidsons. He appeared in The Haunting of Hill House (2018), The Flight Attendant (2020) and in 2022, he starred in the black ops military series Echo 3.
Huisman is the brother of former professional football player Dustin Huisman. Huisman is fond of table tennis, which he has played since childhood. He was raised Jewish.
Huisman is married to Dutch actress Tara Elders, and they have a daughter who was born in 2007. The couple formerly lived in New Orleans, Louisiana, US; and now reside in New York City.
Huisman was singer and guitarist in the Dutch band Fontane, which he formed together with Roland van der Hoofd, Gilles Tuinder, Bas van Geldere, and Donny Griffioen. The band released the singles "1+1=2" (2001), "Slapeloos" (2002), and "Neem Me Mee" (2003). The first single was on the soundtrack of the film Costa! (2001) and the second was on the soundtrack of Full Moon Party (2002), both in which Huisman played a starring role. The band also recorded a version of Willeke Alberti's song "Telkens weer" for the soundtrack of the movie Love to Love (2003).
After two members left the band, Fontane split up and Huisman decided to pursue music on his own. Huisman released the singles "Deel Van Mij" (2005) and "Geef Je Over" (2006), and the album Luchtige Verhalen (2005) as a solo artist. Huisman said in interview about his solo career: "It doesn't feel like a new start, but as if I've started just now." and "It is personal and closerby. Also the sound of the album."
