Kjell Nilsson was born in Gothenberg, Sweden, and came to Australia in 1980 as a trainer of Swedish athletes, preparing for the Moscow Olympics, being a former Olympic class weight lifter himself. While in Australia, he met Australian actress Kate Ferguson, and they were married in Sweden later that year. She persuaded him to return to Australia, and look for work in Australian films. He landed his first role as a pirate in "The Pirate Movie", and you can see Kjell "unmasked" quite clearly in a few scenes from that film. His next role was that of The Humungus in Mad Max 2.
