Biography

Jasper Pääkkönen is a Finnish actor whose films have often topped the box office in his home country, and a Finnish tabloid once judged him Finland's most profitable film actor. Three of the country's biggest hits starred him, among them Matti: Hell Is for Heroes (2006), which ranks second in Finland's all time box office, and Pahat Pojat, a true story that stands as the most successful Finnish film ever. Frozen Land was another of his critical and commercial successes. For Pahat Pojat he took a best actor prize at the Brussels International Independent Film Festival, while Variety's Leslie Felperin noted his range in Matti and Huffington Post's Michael Giltz called him handsome and compelling in Lapland Odyssey (2010). The European Film Promotion named him Finland's Shooting Star at the 2006 Berlin international film festival. He also founded the Pokerisivut.com poker magazine with producer Markus Selin and has guested on fly fishing shows and DVDs.
