Is the first actor to play the same villain in more than two James Bond 007 films.

Is the only actor to appear in all of Per Fly's class trilogy, about Danish lower, upper and middle-classes respectively.

Originally filmed a scene for Quantum of Solace (2008), where his character (Mr. White) gets killed by the James Bond character. But the scene was cut from final release (and was somewhat not available as a feature in the dvd release). Luckily, since the scene was not considered canonical to the story, Christensen ended up returning as the character in Spectre (2015).
