Rune Temte, a towering 6ft 3 (190.5 cm) Norwegian actor, leverages his impressive height for commanding screen presence in roles like Uhtred's rival in The Last Kingdom and the athletic coach in Eddie the Eagle. His stature was an asset during five years with Strømsgodset Football Club, where his physical dominance shone before he pivoted to acting, embodying strength and authority in his career highlights.
