early life
Charles Joel Nordström Kinnaman was born on November 25, 1979 in Stockholm, Sweden. Although his mother was a Swedish citizen, Joel’s father was an American deserter from the Vietnam War and eventually settled in Sweden. Through his mother’s side, Kinnaman has Jewish ancestry. From a very young age, Joel spoke English with his parents.
One of his earliest experiences with American culture was in high school, when he spent some time in Texas as an exchange student. After graduating, Kinnaman traveled the world while doing various jobs to support himself. He visited Norway, the French Alps, Southeast Asia and Southeast Asia.
Profession
Joel’s entertainment career began at a very young age. As a child star, he appeared in Swedish soap operas. His sister helped him get the role because she was dating a director. Nevertheless, Kinnaman finally decided to give up playing the role of a child after starring in 22 episodes of the soap opera called “Storstad”.
In 2002, Joel resumed acting and studied drama at a college. While studying acting, he managed to play many roles in Swedish films such as “Hannah med H” and “God Save the King”. During this period, Kinnaman also served as a stage actor in Gothenburg. After graduating from Malmö Theater Academy in 2007, Joel continued his stage acting career and won widespread media attention for his role in “Crime and Punishment” in Gothenburg.
In the next year or so, Kinnaman starred in nine different Swedish movies. Famous characters appeared in the movie “In Your Veins” and the movie series “Johan Falk”. His role in the latter film series has won him many awards and international fame. This prompted Joel to hire an agent in the United States, who helped him get a role in his first international film “The Darkest Hour.”

After the release of “The Darkest Hour” in 2011, Kinnaman immediately got another opportunity to play an important role in the AMC series “Killing” and improve his career. This series is actually based on the Danish TV series released earlier. With greater exposure, Joel was able to audition for protagonists in major blockbusters such as “Thor” and “Mad Max: Fury Road”.
Although Joel missed these roles, he still took the lead in the 2014 remake of Robocop. During this period, he starred in films such as “Safe House” and “Lola Duel”. Other characters appear in movies such as “Running All Night”, “44-year-old Child”, “Suicide Squad” and “Winter’s Edge”.
In the late 2010s, Joel appeared in many famous TV shows. After playing Governor Wil Conway in “House of Cards” for two seasons, he continued to book the protagonist in “Carbon Change”. In 2018, he joined the cast of the Amazon Prime Video series “Hannah”. That year, he also joined the Apple TV+ “For All Mankind” case. During this period, he also continued his film career, starring in films such as “The Whistleblower”.
relation
Although Kinnaman married Cleo Wattensröm, a Swedish tattoo artist, they ended their relationship in 2018 after three years together. Joel then dated Kelly Gale, a Swedish-Australian model.
Medical problem
Kinnaman grows with pectus excavatum, which is a disease that causes sunken chest. After he booked the role of “Altered Carbon”, Joel inserted two metal rods into his breastbone as part of the corrective surgery. His chest now looks normal.
real estate
In 2014, it was reported that Kinnaman bought a house on Sunset Boulevard for US$2.245 million. Joel’s home occupies more than 2,500 square feet, with three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. There are also wooden floors, large windows with city views, and a concrete fireplace. On the outside, Kinnaman’s home offers a surprisingly large yard space with a stone and brick terrace, a swimming pool, and views of the Pacific Ocean.
Two years later, in 2016, Joel Kinnaman ostensibly bought another house in California, although this time he bought a house in Venice. The residence cost a total of US$3.749 million, occupies 3,343 square feet and has three bedrooms. Features include wooden floors, marble countertops, and neatly decorated yards.
In 2016, Kinnaman also tried to sell his house on Sunset Boulevard. The Hollywood Hills residence did not seem to attract many buyers, so he lowered the price from US$2.795 million to US$2.35 million. This means that Joel seems content to sell his property at a loss, originally acquired for $2.45 million a few years ago. In 2017, Vinnie Guadagnino bought the house for 3.5 million U.S. dollars and listed it for sale in August 2021 for 3.85 million U.S. dollars.
