Who is Sofia Kashtanova dating? The rapid career and love relationship of actress Sofya Kashtanova: does the young star have a husband

popular actor noted New Year at OK! and talked about his acquaintance with Milla Jovovich and Monica Bellucci, childhood dream of becoming a veterinarian, terrible cry Fyodor Bondarchuk and wasted time in the country's main acting university

AT new year's eve Vanya did not leave Moscow - he called to visit him, in rented apartment in the Patriarch's Ponds area, the closest ones: actress Sofya Kashtanova, singer Vlad Topalov, designer Irina Gafina, architect Alexander Yudin, journalist Marina Demchenko, friend Vika and childhood friend Maxim. Together with OK! they drank, danced, sang, burned sparklers, fooled around ... In general, they had fun on to the fullest. A few days later OK! once again came to visit Nikolaev, but in a serious way - to talk about life and about cinema.
It's good to walk in your apartment big company: little furniture, a lot of space. Is it on purpose?
Well no. I just love space, I try not to force the apartment with things.
Is there something you can't do without?
Perhaps a TV. Not TV, but TV - like a monitor. I only watch DVDs on it. On a free day, I can lie in bed until night and watch movies.
Which ones do you play?
No. I don't like being on screen. Somewhere even shy. I don't like my voice, I don't like the way I look...
Weird. After all, they say about you that you are an actor with a Hollywood appearance.
People say from the outside, I myself do not think so. In general, I'm not obsessed with my appearance. I don’t sit for hours at the beautician’s, I don’t go for massages, I don’t even go to the gym. If I was obsessed with this, I would at least not smoke or drink wine. But at my age, it's… boring. ( laughing.) I know people in the profession who lead absolutely healthy lifestyle life - for the most part they are terrible bores, which, by the way, is reflected in their work.
However, it is difficult to imagine that present time actors with such nondescript external data, such as, for example, Evgeny Evstigneev or Evgeny Leonov, would receive a lot of roles. Now handsome men are in demand: Vasya Stepanov, Petya Fedorov, Kostya Kryukov, you. What is this trend?
There is no trend! Russian cinema is still sorely lacking in films with sexy characters. Yes, in Inhabited island» Vasya Stepanov looks like a real sex symbol, they staked on it, but there are very few such projects. And there are much more problems from the so-called Hollywood appearance than dividends. For example, it often happens that I come to the casting, the role is interesting to me, I can handle it, and the director says: “Vanya, of course, is good, but his facial features are too bright, I need a simpler person.” We have this stereotype: if an actor is handsome, then he is not so talented. Like, what does he have, besides a pretty face, what can he play? This, by the way, gives rise to a lot of complexes in many young actors. In Hollywood, for example, when an actor brings his portfolio to the casting director, these are always photographs taken, as they say, on the best day, at the very in a better mood, in the best clothes, etc. Picture perfect, because appearance in the American industry is 50 percent success. With us, the scarier the better. The closer you are to the masses, the less you stand out, the more likely you are to get a role.
Have you ever wanted to try your hand at Hollywood?
Of course, they are waiting for me there with open arms! ( laughing.) In fact, in order to build a career in Hollywood, you must at least live there permanently and learn English without an accent, which is almost impossible.
Aren't there actors in Hollywood who speak English with an accent?
They are forced to play foreigners all their lives. serious career without language there is no way to do it. There are, of course, exceptions to the rule, such as Marion Cotillard or Penélope Cruz. But they are unique, for their roles they received an Oscar, and the Oscar automatically opens all the doors in America. If you are just a Russian actor who, moreover, positions himself as a “Russian in Hollywood”, lives in Russia, and visits America, then you will at best play Russians, as Vladimir Mashkov does (by the way, a wonderful master) or Katya Rednikova. Hundreds of thousands of young people come to Hollywood every year with the hope of becoming stars. The competition is unreal, this is not the case anywhere else. You can beat your head against the wall for years - and to no avail. I also used to think: I’ll make a good portfolio, go to America, hang out there, maybe someone will like it. Nonsense! I know this from many of my friends who tried to settle in the States. What can I say, even if the daughter of Spielberg himself, an actress, does not have anything supernatural happening in his career! It is clear that she will not disappear, she will always have some kind of work, but big roles in big projects she won't get it. She is not Angelina Jolie - and that's it. Cash will not be collected. And even the famous dad will not help.
In general, today you are satisfied with the way your professional life?
In general, I have nothing to complain about. Despite the above, I shoot regularly, and the roles come across diverse. In The Merry Men I played a transvestite, in S.S.D. I play such a rude yard guy. I could not even imagine that Vadim Shmelev would approve me for this role. Another thing is that, of course, I would like to act in big films more often ...
What do you mean by big cinema?
For example, "Black Lightning" by Bekmambetov, which has just been released. Let it be a fairy tale, light, positive, but it is drop dead made, at the world level. I was at the premiere and enjoyed it immensely.
When you play in the series, do you have to overpower yourself?
And I don’t have so many TV shows, only two: “Club” and “City of Temptations”. I try not to get carried away - you can ruin your entire career. Constant participation in the "soap" spoils the image. At the same time, I can say that the “City of Temptations” was a drop dead experience for me. Eight months of filming in the most severe conditions and time pressure. Therefore, when they call me now in full meter and say: “Wan, mind you, half of the filming is on the street, in the cold,” I answer: “Guys, I went through such a school that even shoot on the moon, I’m not afraid of anything” . Everyone thinks that the series is such an easy bread: he came, played mura, got money and left. It's actually a hell of a job. Shooting for 14 hours in a row, 25-29 minutes of production per day (in a full meter - from 3 to 5 minutes maximum!), scenes from the first series in the morning, scenes from the 22nd in the afternoon, and scenes from the 48th in the evening. Absolutely different circumstances, heroes, characters, you constantly need to rebuild, your head does not work, a terrible lack of sleep, plus the organization of the process is zero: either the car will not be sent on time, or the costumes will be forgotten. Filming a TV series is much more difficult than a feature film.
Did you have options to do something completely different in life?
As a child, I wanted to be a veterinarian. Animals lived in my house all the time - dogs, cats, rats. But this dream quickly passed. At the age of eighteen, I already firmly decided: I would be an actor. Entered VGIK to Anatoly Romashin. I wanted to, no one pushed me to do it. Mom, on the other hand, was against it. My parents are engineers by education, they are engaged in business - in general, they are far from creative professions.
