The latest Call of Duty: Black Ops 6 commercial features Swedish actor Peter Stormare reprising his role as ‘The Replacer’, a Black Ops 4 character that can replace anyone at their job while they stay home to play the latest CoD game. But what other movies and TV shows has Stormare been in?
If you played Black Ops 4, you’ll remember Stormare as The Replacer, who was primarily an in-game character in battle royale mode Blackout. Even if you didn’t, you’ll almost certainly recognize the actor in the Black Ops 6 commercial from somewhere.
