LDPR announced a feature film about Vladimir Zhirinovsky – Kommersant

“Presumably I will be the director of the film. The project is just beginning, the script is currently being prepared. While we are negotiating with the production company, we are determining who we will work with. Everything else comes later. It’s too early to talk about actors,” confirmed Alexander Baranov in a conversation with “RIA Novosti”.
