Noomi Rapace is a Swedish actress best known for her powerful performance as Lisbeth Salander in the critically acclaimed film adaptations of Stieg Larsson's Millennium series, including The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, The Girl Who Played with Fire, and The Girl Who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. Her portrayal of the complex, resilient hacker gained her international recognition and numerous accolades. Rapace has also starred in other noteworthy films such as Beyond and Babycall (also known as Monitor).
In 2001, Noomi married Swedish actor Ola Norell. Upon their marriage, the couple jointly adopted the surname Rapace. They had one son together. After nearly a decade of marriage, Noomi filed for separation in Stockholm. Their divorce was finalized in 2011.
During their marriage, Ola Rapace faced personal and professional challenges, including a reported drug possession accusation in 2001 that impacted his acting career. Meanwhile, Noomi’s career trajectory began to rise, particularly following her success in the Millennium series.
As Noomi's international prospects expanded, she considered relocating to the United States to pursue broader acting opportunities. She was cast in a supporting role in Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows (2011), a high-profile Hollywood production. Although Ola initially expressed willingness to relocate with her, he later became hesitant, preferring to stay in Sweden. This divergence in professional priorities is believed to have contributed to the strain in their marriage.
Following their split, speculation arose around the reasons for their separation. Noomi publicly addressed the rumors, stating that there was no dramatic conflict or "war" between them. She acknowledged that, while there were a few intense disagreements, the main reason for their separation was a mutual decision to grow individually. She emphasized a desire to create healthy conditions for co-parenting their son.
Noomi and Ola began dating when she was 21, and they were married just three months later. Her family considered the decision impulsive, but Noomi followed her instincts. Within two years, she became pregnant. Initially concerned about the impact of a pregnancy on her career, she contemplated an abortion, but ultimately chose to have the child—a decision she later described as transformative.
After her separation from Ola Rapace, Noomi was linked romantically to her co-star Tom Hardy. The two spent time together while promoting their film The Drop, which prompted speculation. However, Noomi denied the relationship, clarifying that Hardy had reunited with his partner and that they were simply close colleagues. In 2012, she was briefly seen greeting a mystery man on a film set, sparking further rumors of a secret boyfriend. She did not comment publicly on the encounter and chose not to address questions about her private life.
Noomi has described herself as being continuously involved in relationships since the age of 13. At 14, she left home to live with her then-boyfriend, a decision that shaped her early independence. Since her divorce from Ola, she has remained single, stating that she has not pursued any serious relationships over the past few years.
The current state of her relationship with Ola Rapace is private, although she has expressed a desire to maintain a peaceful and respectful connection for the sake of their son. There are no public details about the custody arrangement or financial settlement. While her son currently lives with Noomi, the nature of his relationship with Ola has not been disclosed. Noomi has emphasized that her priority is ensuring a stable and healthy environment for her child.
