Aleksandr Kuznetsov was born on July 22, 1992, in Sevastopol, Ukraine, the largest Ukranian port city on the Black Sea.

In addition to film and television, he has performed in numerous theater productions, including "The Rebels" (2017), directed by Aleksandr Molochnikov; "Oh, late love" (2014) directed by D. Krimov; and he directed and starred in two of his own productions, "The Odyssey" at the Chekhov Moscow Art Theatre (2017) and "The Gamblers (IGQKI)" at the Na Strastnom Theatrical Center (2015). He has also directed one short film titled, "Let's Get Coffee, Guys" in 2018 and a travel show, "Could be Worse."
