Kuznetsov worked as a sailor for a short time in Crimea before moving to Moscow.
During filming of "The Last Warrior" (The Scythian), temperatures in Ukraine were so low that Kuznetsov and other members of the cast were frequently battling hypothermia.
As of 2018, favorite musicians include Jack White, Muse, and Royal Blood, which influenced his theatre work, specifically the "Gamblers" and music written by his band.
