伊戈爾·維塔利耶維奇·基基凱勒于1965年10月8日出生于俄羅斯莫斯科。年輕的伊戈爾對電影和表演有很大興趣，但也喜歡運動。后來他進入莫斯科州立體育學(xué)院學(xué)習(xí)體操、足球、溜冰和滑雪，并以一名蘇聯(lián)的運動健將身份從那里畢業(yè)。與此同時，他還學(xué)習(xí)戲劇、武術(shù)和雜技，并在莫斯科州立劇院表演舞臺劇。

1989年伊戈爾隨劇院到美國旅行表演，但是他的經(jīng)紀(jì)人卷走所有錢消失了，24歲的伊戈爾身無分文流落街頭，但仍決心留下來發(fā)展。從此他的生活便如他曾在舞臺上表演的一些人物一樣忙碌混亂，他挺過三次糟糕的婚姻，后來他來到拉斯維加斯的馬戲團做雜技演員，在那里找到了新的經(jīng)紀(jì)，并以“俄羅斯熊”的綽號在拉斯維加斯成名。

2000年之后他前往好萊塢發(fā)展，并在那里被星探發(fā)掘，開始出演電影中的反派。他在好萊塢最著名的作品即是《奪寶奇兵4》。

如今他同時在美國和俄羅斯參與影視劇。
