Biography

Prague born, Vancouver raised, David Nykl arrived in Canada at age two when his family emigrated from Czechoslovakia after the Soviet-led Warsaw Pact invasion of what was then Czechoslovakia.
David started early as an actor in Vancouver. He graduated University of British Columbia with an Major in English Literature and Theater.
In 1991 he toured to Prague – where he remained for almost a decade. He co-founded Misery Loves Co. and appeared in many local Czech companies such as divadlo na zabradli, kaspar, and divadlo v dlouhe. Since his return to Canada in the late nineties, David has appeared in dozens of film and TV projects including Stargate: Atlantis, Arrow, Supernatural, Fringe, Eureka, Continuum, Tomorrowland, HBO’s The Sleepers, and, since 2019, Carnival Row. He lives in Vancouver with his family.
