Professional Life At the age of 14, Skarsgard attended the premiere of the film “Pirates of the Caribbean,” in which her father played Bootstrap Bill Turner. During the premiere, she was seen by a modeling agency manager, who offered her modeling possibilities, which she accepted, and she appeared in various projects, advertisements, and magazine covers over the next four years. She was accepted by a variety of magazines due to her surname.
She decided to leave modeling after several years in the industry because she felt she was no longer having fun. Eija later stated that she was leaving the profession because they were continuously hounded about reducing weight, and it was no longer an environment she wanted to be in, though she did not rule out a potential comeback. She moved into business and became the manager of the Vardagsrummet nightclub in Stureplan, Stockholm, a position she says she adores.
