It's always the thing when you're shooting out and about with real people and you could get a couple of bogeys like sticking their face in front of the camera, like 'Hey!'

Excuse me, I have to go. Somewhere there is a crime happening.
Joel Kinnaman
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.
Joel Kinnaman
There's a lot of neuroscience now raising the question, 'Is all the intelligence in the human body in the brain?', and they're finding out that, no, it's not like that. The body has intelligence itself, and we're much more of an organic creature in that way.
Joel Kinnaman
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.
Joel Kinnaman
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.
Joel Kinnaman
What I enjoy most with acting is when it's a good scene with one or two other actors, and you feel a strong connection and you don't know how you're going to respond, and everybody is listening to each other and getting affected by each other, and even though you've rehearsed it many times, it feels like it's happening right now.
Joel Kinnaman
There are a lot of wrong reasons to do a remake, but there are some good ones... I think it's human nature, in many ways, to retell our favorite stories. We do it in the theater, all the time. I've seen four different 'Hamlets,' and every one has given me something different.
Joel Kinnaman
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.
Joel Kinnaman
I think you're always afraid when you go into like a big superhero movie that it's gonna be kinda just action and you're not gonna be able to just really go to the bottom of the characters.
Joel Kinnaman
I really want to live in New York. That's the city of my dreams.
Joel Kinnaman
I used to be like Why are we doing a remake? What are remakes being done for? But then, we do that all the time in the theater. Retelling stories is what we've done since we were sitting around campfires. It's a part of the human spirit. It doesn't have to be negative to creativity. It can be completely opposite.
Joel Kinnaman
If we weren't doing remakes, nobody would know who Shakespeare was. I'm not saying that RoboCop is Shakespeare, but it's a way we're retelling. That's what we do as human beings. We retell our favorite stories.
Joel Kinnaman
I'm never very good with marks. They're always like, 'You're not on your mark'. I was like, 'Oh, it's that thing you put on the ground? Yeah, I don't pay attention to it.'
Joel Kinnaman
It's frustrating when you come over here [Hollywood], especially from a position that I was in, in Sweden, where most people know who you are, but then you come here.
Joel Kinnaman
I don't think there have been many alien movies where the actors have actually seen the aliens.
Joel Kinnaman
I сan't imagine how ROBOCOP could be PG-13.
Joel Kinnaman
As actors we're like these vagabond artists, we have to be invited to perform so if you don't have a choice of options its very hard to define yourself.
Joel Kinnaman
You can make an interesting character in a small portion of a movie, for a character that doesn't have that much on the page, if you just find the contradictions. That's something that I try to bring to my performances.
Joel Kinnaman
I believe that this life is all we have. I don't believe in anything after this, so I think the choices we make here are so important and the relationships we choose are crucial, especially in that time when we are developing ourselves and we're becoming adults.
Joel Kinnaman
I think I've seen the first 'RoboCop' like 15 or 20 times. I'm like a kid that way.
