Alexander Petrov biography

The impudent cop, poor Gogol and the swollen sadist: why Alexander Petrov suddenly disappeared Anna Fedorova on January 25, Alexander Petrov became famous as Grisha Izmailov-the impudent captain-major in the series “Police from Rublevka”. The television project brought popular glory, money and, of course, communications. In years there was almost no large project without Petrov.

But unexpectedly for everyone, the actor went into the shadows and stopped acting. We tell you what happened to the artist and where he is now. So far, someone sees the collage in the actor of only a rude and unprincipled young man, others are sure that he is a type that came out of the people. Just a few years ago, the name of Alexander Petrov sounded literally from each iron, and in M ​​he became one of the most commercially successful artists.

But gradually Glory began to go to “no”: the most high -profile event in Petrov’s life in the year was a wedding with a provincial girl. About why the actor stopped glowing on the screens and suddenly settled down, read in the article. The family of the future actor lived simply: mother is a medical worker, and the father is an electrical engineer. Sasha is the youngest child.

There is no need to talk about the acting dynasty, but in an interview, Ksenia Sobchak talked with Alevtina Petrova - by the way, then everyone noted the amazing similarity of her son and mother. The woman said that everyone was fond of creativity: for example, Petrova herself led at school and college a radio -ox, father - Andrei Petrov - sings well and loves to play the guitar, and her older sister Catherine was 15 years old in the dance mug.

At school, Petrov was a disrupted, but always competently talked with peers and easily found friends. Alexander was popular among girls - he spent a lot of time with his sister and her friends, and therefore he studied the female "wisdom" well. In parallel with his studies, he attended the sports section where he played football. Being in the 9th grade, Petrov was going to the competition, but on the eve of the departure he was injured.

I had to forget about the athlete's career. Few people know that in childhood the artist always tried to earn a lot of money. According to Alevtina Petrova, the boy was constantly looking for a part -time job so as not to ask his parents to ask for funds. Once Alexander himself accumulated a button phone. Even during his holidays, he tried to make money. He worked even a cashier seller, sold things in the market.

He worked at a concrete factory, even a little broke, - the actor's mother shared. Photo: Instagram. Student life was full of events: the guy participated in university performances, performed in the university team of KVN. Once the theater circle went to the festival in the Samara region. The meeting was fateful - the Soviet and Russian director and master noticed the guy, invited him to try himself in the acting field.

In the first attempt, Petrov entered the theater school, where Alexander Pal became his classmate. Friendship, however, did not start right away - the case helped. So friendship is forced, but strong. Sasha is straight and honest, calm, like a boaver. This always delighted me in him, ”Petrov said in an interview with KinoPoisk. In an interview with Yuri Dudu, he was recognized as a minista by a foreign agent Alexander Petrov admitted that sometimes even his nerves were surrendered.

The master was extremely demanding and did not give Slabin to yesterday's boys. Haifets began to tell me some such things that you will leave and break. Destroyed at the whole course. And then, when he destroyed, he said: “Play,” he said. The career of Alexander Petrov has only more than 70 paintings and several theatrical productions on the actor. Unlike Alexander Pala, who for a long time was looking for work after graduating from the school, Petrov almost immediately began to act and play in the theater.

In particular, with the years he served in ET Cetera, led by Alexander Kalyagin, and then moved to the theater to them. He performed the “roofs”, as he himself said, as a secondary character in the paintings “Augustus. Eighth ”,“ Christmas trees 3 ”,“ Love in the big city 3 ”. Frame of the film "August. And you need not only to gain experience, but also to eat something.

I can honestly say that now I am more selective than at the beginning of the journey, but in principle it is impossible to build an ideal filmography, ”the actor shared. Indeed, eminent directors did not even know about Petrov’s existence, while young and ambitious were invited to participate in the projects. So the actor starred in short films - “refrigerator” and “hijacker”, in the series - “Voice” and “While the Paporotnik blooms”.

Cooperation with him brought the artist a lot of money, work and, of course, recognition. However, during the filming it was not everything as smoothly as on the screen: for example, the director of the series Alexander Votinsky literally complained about Petrov, saying that he gives rise to “constructive” conflicts on the set. So the actor was on large screens in the role of Grisha Izmailov - a cynical policeman who reacts to the challenges of the inhabitants of the elite metropolitan village.

But those who are familiar with the artist fundamentally do not agree with this statement: Grisha Izmailov has a lot of pathos, impudence and rudeness, and Sasha is perfectly educated, smart and tactful. Yes, and the actor himself does not like when his characters are compared with him or they say that he "just dressed up." These are all common things, and if we talk about the heroes themselves, then these are completely different people.

I always have the task - to play completely different people. I also have to change with the character internally, not externally. Even if we talk about DiCaprio - it does not particularly change in his films. Yes, in some ways my heroes are similar, but I could not refuse because of this from the filming, since you need to make a career in good films. One way or another, but five years later, Alexander Petrov decided to leave the television project.

Many built different rumors regarding why they decided to remove the main character. Until the fact that the artist quarreled with "senior comrades" to the fluff. The reason was quite working: the creators decided to complete this line. The actor with the producers of the series did not have any conflict. The line of his hero-Grisha Izmailov-ended with a wedding and a happy end in the final of the film “Police from Rublevka.

New Year's lawlessness. " Further, as far as I know, Ilya Kulikov, the creator of the film franchise, immediately planned to make an upgrade of this story and write a continuation without a character Sasha Petrov. Thus, Sasha did not have the opportunity to abandon the filming - no one offered him, ”said producer Yevgeny Nikishov. The project of the director Yegor Baranov was divided immediately into three paintings and one series: “Gogol.

Beginning ”,“ Gogol. Wii ”,“ Gogol. Terrible revenge ”and just Gogol. Despite the fact that the first part raised $ 7 million in Russia and the world, the film can hardly be called successful. It is dull, not gloomy or mysterious-mystical. The hero does not want to follow his thorny path, as, in fact, empathize with him, ”wrote critics. However, here the actor found what to say to all the ill -wishers: he is quite calm about those who criticize him or simply do not like.

Someone called the fulfillment of the role “shame”, someone completely hit the work and composed a verse: “There are many films in Russia bad, worthy of critical words, but I watch these films only because Petrov does not play in them! In the year, “Streltsov” was released, in which Petrov was offered a major role.

The story of the ascent of the stars of Soviet football seemed to speak in the actor: he himself once scored the balls. But here, to deliver a beautiful blow to the envious people did not work. A popular actor has no resemblance to the real Streltsov, but he is now, as they say, on the crest of the wave. So, girls in love with Petrov are able to largely fill the halls. They girls do not care who Sasha is playing-a policeman from Rublevka, a Hero-Dankist or a genius of football.

Moreover, Petrov is everywhere played by Petrov, his images in different films are not much different from each other, ”critics emphasized once again. Petrov himself considers the “attraction” in his career a turning point in his career, where he performed one of the main roles. In the image of Artyom, Petrov showed that it can be not only smooth and good and that a villain and psychopaths can hide behind a pleasant appearance of a hero from the people.

After the second part of the story, the “invasion” - Petrov admitted that the continuation came better. And now the tasks were already serious, since the successful rental of the first part showed that, despite criticism, most of the reviews were positive, and people liked the film. Accordingly, they wanted to make an invasion by a national blockbuster that would meet all the requirements for a real action, a really cool computer schedule similar to world trends, good drama.

When you come to the cinema, you seem to ride an American hill, ”Petrov remarked. He did, as they say, the horse’s move: he invited Alexander Petrov and Danil Kozlovsky to the main roles, who secretly competed for the title of the chief actor of our time. According to Alexander, the spirit of rivalry on the set literally hung in the air. It even came to the point that everyone tried to come to work at least a few minutes before the other.

In the year, Alexander Petrov announced that he wanted to take a creative pause.
