Biography

Michiel Huisman is a Dutch actor and musician who began his music career singing and playing guitar with the band Fontane, whose early singles included one from the soundtrack of Costa! (2001). Acting began in 1998 on the Dutch serial Goede tijden, slechte tijden, and he went on to lead Dutch films such as Phileine Says Sorry and Floris, while taking a small part in Paul Verhoeven's Black Book (2006).
