Selome Emnetu

Selome Emnetu’s got one of those faces you kinda remember, even if you can’t quite place it at first. She pops up in some wild stuff—seriously, check the credits on The Trip from 2021, and suddenly you’re like, “Wait, wasn’t she also in Okkupert?” Yep, totally her. And Mammon, too. Not exactly your standard popcorn flicks, by the way. There’s this thread running through her roles—she’s not playing it safe or predictable. In The Trip, things go off the rails fast. There’s that whole dark-comedy-turned-bloodbath vibe, and Selome jumps right into the madness, holding her own with a cast that’s just as unhinged as the plot. Not your average “oh look, another supporting character” deal. She’s convincing, she’s sharp, and she’s got this energy that makes you wanna see what her character’s gonna do next—even if it’s probably not gonna end well for someone. Back in Okkupert (which, side note, is this Norwegian political thriller that low-key predicted a bunch of real-world drama), she slips into that tense, icy atmosphere like she’s been there forever. It’s all about power plays, secrets, and a country on edge, and she sells the tension without overdoing it. Then there’s Mammon, which is one of those shows where everyone looks like they’re hiding something. And Selome? She nails that vibe. Bottom line, she’s not just filling space—she’s giving you characters you actually remember, even if you’re not sure why at first.
