Joel Kinnaman's quotes

• I miss the Swedish women on the first day of spring cause they all just blossom in the most incredible way.
• I always look for good stories and good characters, and if they're placed in a whodunit, then I'm interested.
• I really want to live in New York. That's the city of my dreams.
• We all can relate to people's weaknesses. We might put up a facade that everything is perfect but none of us are. When we see that weakness in somebody else, we understand or give ourselves a little bit of leeway.
• We don't know why we are here and the context of our role in the universe, and the thought of an infinite universe. It's something the human mind can't really grasp. It's statistically impossible that there's not life on other planets.
• 'The Killing' has a really great combination of qualities: Even though it's very sad and deals with mourning and grief, it's still exciting. It's about real people and it doesn't shy from the painful points of life.
• It's technically demanding to shoot in 3-D. It's an extra element. Also, just the size of the cameras. They look like these 'Transformers' monsters; they are incredibly big, many of them.
• I went to high school in Texas for one year, my senior year. My parents wanted me to get out of Stockholm because I was running with the wrong crew. They wanted me to get back to my roots.
• I think for a lot of people that had seen me do 'Snabba Cash,' after watching 'The Killing,' I think they got a sense that I could do different kinds of characters.
• Being an actor in movies is a lot about the power of your imagination and making the circumstance real to you so the audience will feel that it's real.
• We're all a big hippie family so I got five sisters and a bunch of different mothers. Not really, but my sisters' mothers are all good friends with my mother. We're a big family, 25 people.
• I hate pork rinds. I couldn't imagine how anybody would ever get the idea of taking skin from a pig and frying it and then trying to sell it to people. And then people actually buy it to eat it. That is the true sign of the decline of the human race.
• I don't think there have been many alien movies where the actors have actually seen the aliens.
• Swedes are a really humble and shy people in many ways, but I think it's pretty much the same as in the U.S. Little girls want to take photographs with me at lunch.
• I think I've seen the first 'RoboCop' like 15 or 20 times. I'm like a kid that way.
• I usually have pretty good intuition on projects that I work on.
• [on his restricted diet to prepare for his shirtless role in Altered Carbon] I ate kale leaves with my own tears as dressing.
• [on doing something different after Altered Carbon where he constantly showed off his physique] I have way too little body fat and too many abs in this show. Now I've got to go do something to get my credibility back.
• [on how did he feel about the excessive nudity in Altered Carbon] That's a bonus for an exhibitionist like me. I was like, "If I'm gonna get in this good of shape, then I'm not going to be wearing any clothes, okay?!
