Myrberg graduated from Dramatens acting school in 1957, and in subsequent years, he could be seen in various theaters around Sweden. His first movie role was as Erik Svensson in Värmlänningarna (1957). His subsequent work in movies and TV ranged from comedies to leading roles in dramas, as well as a supporting role in the English language film The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo.

His voice credits include the Disney movies One Hundred and One Dalmatians (as Roger Radcliff in the original 1961 dub),The Little Mermaid (Sebastian), The Aristocats (Thomas O'Malley), and Atlantis: The Lost Empire (Preston B.
