Born with a love for cinema, Ludvig set out early for a career in filmmaking. He started out by making documentaries, with his directorial debut being Pretending I'm a Superman: The Tony Hawk Video Game Story, a film that chronicles the rise and fall of the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater video game franchise, and features many legendary skaters, including Tony Hawk himself.

Ludvig then made the leap to fiction. In 2019 he directed the short film The Outsider, which was an adaptation of a story by legendary horror author H. P. Lovecraft. The film was released by ALTER in the summer of 2020, after having been shown at film festivals worldwide.

The following year Ludvig directed Dreamster, a sci-fi short that is a co-production between Sweden and the US. Produced by Brain Academy (now known as Viaplay Studios), the film had a successful run on the festival circuit in 2022 and won several awards.

In 2023, Ludvig made his feature-length directorial debut with In the Name of God. Starring Swedish household names such as Linus Wahlgren, Thomas Hanzon and Charlie Gustafsson, the film is a horror / thriller about a priest on a mission to expand his congregation at any cost. In the Name of God was recently completed and is set to be released soon. REinvent Studios picked up the film for international sales in May 2023.

Ludvig’s work has been featured in major news outlets, such as Variety, Deadline, The Hollywood Reporter, CBS Sports, and many more.
