Biography

Carrière
C'est en accompagnant son frère à une audition que Ryan Kwanten est remarqué par un directeur de casting. Le monde de la comédie lui est alors ouvert. Il débute à la télévision australienne en 1991 par un petit rôle de surfer dans le soap Summer Bay. En 1997, il est rappelé pour y incarner l'un des rôles principaux pendant trois saisons. Entre-temps, il fait ses armes avec un rôle récurrent dans un autre soap, À cœur ouvert (1992), suivi de rôles réguliers dans Echo Point (1995) et dans la saison 2 de la série Les Maîtres des sortilèges (1997).

Le téléfilm The Junction Boys en 2002 marque son premier rôle aux États-Unis. Il passe ensuite par les séries FBI : Opérations secrètes et Tru Calling avant de s'établir en ancien champion de surf reconverti dans les 2 saisons de Summerland (2005) aux côtés de Lori Loughlin, créatrice de la série dont elle tient le rôle principal.

Sur le grand écran, Ryan Kwanten commence par un rôle de second plan dans le film australien Signal One (1994). En 2003, il incarne à nouveau un surfer dans Liquid Bridge avant d'apparaître dans America Brown l'année suivante.

De 2008 à 2014, il figure à l'affiche de la série de HBO : True Blood dont il interprète l'un des rôles principaux, celui de Jason Stackhouse.

Near the rural town of Winton, Queensland, a truck driver finds the body of a teenage aboriginal girl named Julie Mason inside one of the drainage tunnels under the road. Newly promoted aboriginal Detective Jay Swan, recently returned from training in the city, investigates the murder.

Jay finds several text messages to his teenage daughter, Crystal. He visits his ex-wife Mary and speaks to Crystal. He asks her if she wants to move to the city with him, but she declines. Mary tells Jay that it is too late for him to be a father. Jay searches a farm near where Julie's body was found and meets its owner, Sam Bailey. Before Jay leaves, he sees a young man leaving in a white hunting truck. Jay later finds out that another teenage aboriginal girl has also gone missing.
