Biography
Kuncoro was born in Jakarta, Indonesia, on 11 August 1972. He initially intended to become a sculptor and majored in it at the Jakarta Art Institute, but after hearing a sermon about Islam's view of the art he decided to become an actor. He started his career in the early 1990s with soap operas, making his feature-film debut in two action films several years later.{{sfn|Setiawati 2011, Agus Kuncoro: His Life}}
While continuing to act in soap operas, in 2005 Kuncoro appeared in Panggung Pinggir Kali (Stage Beside the River). His next film, Kun Fayakuun (Be, and It Is; 2008) was a religious-themed film. Kuncoro's following films, Di Bawah Langit (Under the Sky) and Sang Pencerah (The Enlightener), both released in 2010, were of a similar vein. Sang Pencerah marked Kuncoro's first film with Hanung Bramantyo.{{sfn|Setiawati 2011, Agus Kuncoro: His Life}}
