Often described at mercurial, Astrid's adaptability and love of creating characters makes her an asset to any cast. She'll happily try new angles and easily takes direction.  She's committed, focussed and adaptable. While she is most at home as a female comic actress, she's regularly cast in more serious dramatic roles in TV series.
