Born in Stockholm, Sweden, Kinnaman started his entertainment career at a very early age as a child actor. He consistently appeared in Swedish soap operas. Initially, his older sister helped him gain roles as she was dating a director at the time. As a child actor, he appeared in 22 episodes of the soap opera, "Storstad."

In 2002, Kinnaman studied drama and as an acting student, he managed to book several roles in Swedish films like "Hannah med H" and "God Save the King." He went on to star in nine different Swedish films in the next few years. His most notable roles came in films like "In Your Veins" and the film series "Johan Falk." After winning several awards for his work in Swedish films, he hired an agent in the United States. Kinnamon soon landed a role in Hollywood in his first international film, "The Darkest Hour” which was released in 2011.

He bagged a notable role in the AMC series, "The Killing," which was based on a Danish television series. He then booked the lead role in the 2014 remake of "RoboCop." He also appeared in films like "Safe House" and "Lola Versus." Kinnaman also played the role of Governor Will Conway in "House of Cards" for two seasons. After “House of Cards,” he went on to book the lead role in the Netflix series, "Altered Carbon,” playing the role of Takeshi Kovacs. As per a Vulture report, Kinnaman made $350,000 per episode for the futuristic drama.



 

In 2018, he appeared in the Amazon Prime Video series "Hanna," and in the same year, he joined the cast of Apple TV+'s "For All Mankind." He further continued with his film career booking roles in movies like "The Informer." His next major role came in the DC film, “Suicide Squad” playing the role of Commander Rick Flag alongside stars like Will Smith and Margot Robbie.



 

Kinnaman purchased a property on the Sunset Strip for $2.245 million in 2014. The home featured three bedrooms, spanning across 2,500 square feet. Further, in 2016, Kinnaman bought another home in California. The new residence in Venice cost about $3.749 million. It features 3,343 square feet of living space with three bedrooms wood floors, marble countertops, and a neatly-decorated yard.



 

In the same year, Kinnaman put his Sunset Strip for sale at an initial price of $2.795 million. However, he cut the price down to $2.35 million, agreeing to sell his property at a loss, having originally acquired it for $2.45 million years earlier. He ultimately averted the loss as Vinnie Guadagnino bought this home for $3.5 million in 2017.
