Showreel

Silja Rós is an Icelandic Screen Actress, Singer & Screenwriter with a genuinely rare triple-threat profile & a track record that proves it: she is the Co-Creator, Writer & Lead Actress of the Television series SKVÍZ, which she & her creative partners developed from a first draft in a Los Angeles coffee house all the way to a primetime premiere on the Icelandic channel Síminn, produced by the respected Production company Glassriver.

Trained at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Los Angeles, Silja combines international schooling with Nordic authenticity. She is a native Icelandic speaker, fluent in English & conversational in Danish & French & with bases in both Reykjavík & Copenhagen she moves naturally between the Icelandic, Scandinavian & international markets.

Silja is equally accomplished as a Musician. A classically & jazz-trained Vocalist, she has released acclaimed albums, competed at Söngvakeppnin, Iceland’s national Eurovision selection & written songs for artists across Europe. For Casting Directors, that means an Actress who can genuinely sing at a professional level, a decisive advantage for Musicals, musical Roles & Productions where the voice is part of the Character.

Her range of skills reads like a Production wish list: Soprano vocals, jazz piano, guitar, ballet, modern, jazz, & period dance, stage combat, & sword fighting. Having written & created her own series, she also understands story, structure & what a Director needs from every scene & she brings that intelligence, warmth & work ethic to set.

With screen, stage & musical credits across Iceland, Denmark & the United States, Silja delivers grounded, emotionally honest Performances & the professionalism & flexibility that fast-moving Casting schedules require.

She is fully available & Production-ready.
