Kaare Storemyr

Kaare Storemyr, born back in ’57, has been around the film block more times than most folks can count. He’s not one of those flashy, red-carpet types either—nah, he’s the guy behind the curtain making sure everything runs smoother than a buttered slide. If you’ve seen “Kon-Tiki” (2012), you’ve caught a glimpse of his handiwork. That film? It’s no walk in the park. Epic ocean scenes, huge logistical headaches, and somehow Kaare wrangled it all together so it looked easier than making instant noodles. Before that, he was mixing it up with “Ulvenatten” (2008)—a tense, edge-of-your-seat thriller that needed someone who could keep calm while everyone else was sweating bullets. Guess who’s good under pressure? Yep. Then there’s “The King’s Choice” (2016), this massive Norwegian wartime drama. It’s all about Norway’s king staring down the Nazis—so, no pressure, right? Kaare’s fingerprints are all over that one too, keeping the production tight and the story serious. He’s one of those unsung heroes, the kind of production manager who probably has a million stories from behind the scenes but never brags. The guy’s a bit of a legend in Norway’s film scene, honestly. Not everyone gets their name attached to movies that big without knowing their stuff inside out. So, if you’re someone who actually notices the credits, keep an eye out—Storemyr’s probably been quietly making the magic happen while the stars soak up the spotlight.
