The most sought-after Russian actors received the roles of the most important figures of Russian culture

Kryukov will play Stanislavsky, Oleshko – Nemirovich, Yura Borisov will play the dancing Pushkin

The most sought-after actors of our time – Yura Borisov, Alexander Oleshko and Konstantin Kryukov – received unexpected roles of real people, and even those who have become a national treasure. True, these are not biopics in the classical sense, but some fantasies on a given topic. Pushkin, for example, will sing and dance. And the founders of the Moscow Art Theater Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko, apparently, will not literally correspond to their usual images and will still surprise us.

Karen Shakhnazarov is shooting the film “Khitrovka” in Moscow and St. Petersburg. It is based on the essays “Moscow and Muscovites” by Gilyarovsky, combined in a bizarre way with the detective story of Arthur Conan Doyle. The result should be a comedic detective story. And the main characters of the film will be the writer Gilyarovsky and the actor and director Stanislavsky. Other actors include Vladimir Nemirovich-Danchenko, Moscow Art Theater actors, writers Chekhov and Gorky.

As it became known to MK, the director did not absolutely strive for a portrait resemblance of actors with his heroes, since this is a hoax, a fantasy, and not a historical picture. Although, of course, recognition is assumed.

For the role of Stanislavsky, the famous handsome man of his era, our handsome film actor Konstantin Kryukov, the successor of the famous dynasty, the grandson of Sergei Bondarchuk and Irina Skobtseva, the nephew of Fyodor Bondarchuk, was invited. He has already played more than 50 roles in films, although he did not aspire to be an actor, he was engaged in painting and jewelry. And now he will play the shrine of the world theater of Konstantin Stanislavsky. Will we tell him “I believe!” It’s hard to even guess today. And the role of Nemirovich-Danchenko will be played by Alexander Oleshko, who needs no introduction. He is not only a popular actor, but also a TV presenter. There is a lot of talk around his person – whether he will replace Galkin. An amazing choice in its own way, but Karen Shakhnazarov knows a lot about actors, which means he saw something that is not quite obvious, but unmistakable.

No less surprising was the invitation to the role of Pushkin, Yura Borisov, who has become the most sought-after actor in modern cinema over the past few years, he will play Alexander Sergeevich in the film musical The Prophet. And the party will be Paulina Andreeva, who is destined for the role of Avdotya Golitsyna.

According to the general producer of the project Pyotr Anurov, it will be a classic feature film, in which, at key moments in Pushkin’s life, the narrative turns into choreographic and musical numbers with original music and poetry by Alexander Sergeevich.

The film was directed by Felix Umarov, known for the series “Home Field”. Now he has to make a film about the main Russian poet and, as the ideologists of the project say, tell about him as a modern and multifaceted hero, in which the dark and terrible struggles with the bright and enlightened beginning. In general, they will show Alexander Sergeevich in all the glory of his talent and passions.

Behind Yura Borisov more than fifty roles. He is a talented actor and has been acting since 2010. Last summer and autumn, films with his participation participated in the main world festivals – Cannes, Venice, Locarno. Yura starred in Vertinsky, Silver Skates, Gerda. “Compartment number six”, the films “Accomplices”, “Captain Volkonogov fled”, “Mom, I’m at home.”

At first glance, he has an inconspicuous appearance that allows you to create any image. Experienced directors believe that this is an ideal option for an actor.
