Acting
Kold was persuaded by his friend, film director Mads Matthiesen, to play the title role in Matthiesen's short film Dennis (2007).

He reprised the role of Dennis when Matthiesen made Teddy Bear (2012), a feature-length adaptation of Dennis.[2] He appeared in Fast & Furious 6 (2013), as well as Polish short film Smok (2015), based on the legend of Wawel Dragon.
