Maria Mironova - about big money and a “pregnant” rider on the set of the series “A Step from Heaven”


BIOGRAPHY

Maria Mironova was born into a creative family.
Her father is the famous actor Andrei Mironov, her mother is actress Ekaterina Gradova. Art surrounded Maria since childhood. My father’s parents are famous pop artists Alexander Menaker and Maria Mironova. My grandmother on my mother’s side, Raisa Ivanovna Gradova, played at the Theater. Gogol. With her, the future actress first appeared on stage in the play “The Decameron.” Maria recalls that her grandmother always praised her, and this is what gave Maria confidence in herself. Initially, the girl did not even think about becoming an actress. As a child, Masha loved to dance, but her parents never sent her to ballet school. She studied in dance clubs and performed in clubs. At the age of eight, the future actress made her film debut – Maria played the role of Becky Thatcher in Stanislav Govorukhin’s film “The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn.”

The decision to become an actress was not easy. After school, Maria entered the Higher Theater School named after. B.V. Shchukin on the course of Yuri Lyubimov. But this act, as the actress admits, was unconscious. After studying a little, the girl goes on maternity leave. Maria recalls: “Becoming a mother, I matured dramatically. And it was then that I realized what I wanted in my profession. So I finished my studies at VGIK.”

After graduating from the institute, Maria Mironova receives an invitation from several theaters, and ultimately chooses Lenkom. In one of her early interviews, the actress said: “As a child, I really loved this theater, and when I came there, I was glad to go on stage in any role. However, Mark Anatolyevich Zakharov felt that I could not just be a member of the troupe, but play prominent roles. My partners on the theater stage are Oleg Yankovsky, Alexander Abdulov, Nikolai Karachentsov, Inna Churikova... Theater is a living art, it takes you away without a trace. If in a movie you can “hide” behind the director, script, makeup, then you can’t hide on stage. Everyone sees what you really are.”

The wife of the cosmonaut - the hero Vladimir Vdovichenkov. I became friends with director Klim Shipenko. This is a breakthrough project for him. “Salyut 7” was filmed in extreme detail.

You starred with Dmitry Pevtsov in “Sniper” by Belarusian director Alexander Efremov. The film received an award at the Listapad festival in Minsk.

Maria Mironova:

There's a love triangle there too. Directors like to invite me to “triangles”. We filmed in Minsk and have the most positive memories.

Is praise important to you?

Maria Mironova:

Yes, approval is important to me, as it is for any person.

What if they scold you?

Maria Mironova:

Maria Mironova:

Field daisies.

What are your plans?

Maria Mironova:

There was a lot of work, so the plan is to relax a little.

THEATER

Maria Mironova has been serving at Lenkom since 1996. The actress began as an extra in the play “Crazy Day, or The Marriage of Figaro,” and after a while she was introduced to the role of Fanchetta. In the same season, Maria rehearses Blanche in Mark Zakharov’s production of “The Barbarian and the Heretic.” The actress recalls: “For me it was great happiness. This was my first premiere. It was interesting to me because it is a classic, it is Dostoevsky, and even the tiniest image of him is not flat - it has depth. Blanche, in my opinion, is a bright, characterful role, not a stereotypical one.”

The actress makes a successful debut on the big stage. With her participation there are high-profile premieres - the plays “Two Women” and “City of Millionaires”. And in 2003, Mark Zakharov staged “The Executioner’s Lament” - “a fantasy in two parts” based on the works of J. Anouilh and F. Dürrenmatt. Maria Mironova brilliantly performed the role of Eurydice, Orpheus’s lover. The image of the heroine of the myth turned out to be deep and textured. In a review of the play, critic Alena Karas Fr.

For her role as Eurydice in the play “The Executioner’s Lament,” the actress was awarded the Evgeniy Leonov Charitable Foundation Award.

Maria Mironova actively collaborates with director Andrei Zholdak. In his version of “The Seagull” she plays Nina Zarechnaya. And in 2006, the play “Phaedra. The Golden Ear”, in which Mironova plays the main role. As the actress admits, for her to play such a powerful character does not mean to show madness, but to explore the soul: “This is philosophy. With Andrei Zholdak, everything is harsh in the sense of truth, so we wanted to get away from the poetry of Racine’s text, we wanted a naturalistic refraction of it. At the same time, I like that in this performance you can exist above everyday life. For me, these two poles are now the most interesting thing in the profession. To connect, to combine them in a non-domestic space... For me this is more of a philosophy than a depiction of just madness.” For the role of Phaedra, Maria becomes a laureate of the National Theater Award “Golden Mask”.

In 2007, the premiere of the play “Carmen” took place. Exodus". Here Maria Mironova not only played the main role, but was also involved in the organization. The actress admits: “Initially it seemed to me that I could organize everything: find money, play, and write lyrics. Everything turned out to be much more complicated. But it was interesting! I think it’s for the best anyway: the premiere took place, everyone is alive, the performance is on.”

The image of Carmen attracted the actress with its combination of passion and naturalness - qualities that Maria especially highlights in the characters of female characters. She says about her role: “Carmen carries within herself the element of destructive freedom, total arbitrariness. This topic was initially interesting to me. It seems to me that century after century it sounds louder and louder, and in our century it has reached its apogee. Moral laws begin to crumble. People often do not notice that the desire for unlimited freedom leads straight into the abyss... Carmen will never grow old, she will always remain young, she will never have a family. At a certain moment, she realizes that it’s all over, and she can’t change anything... This is her tragedy.”

In 2008, the premiere of the play “A Lady’s Visit” with Maria Mironova in the title role took place at Lenkom. Alexander Morfov deliberately made the characters much younger than they are in Dürrenmatt's play. In her review of the performance, Maria Davydova Fr.

In 2014, director Konstantin Bogomolov staged Boris Godunov at Lenkom, in which Maria Mironova plays two roles at once - Godunov’s sister and


. Her partner in the play was Igor Mirkurbanov. According to the actress, working with Bogomolov was very easy for her. And the story, shown through the prism of the director’s vision, made me think: “How is it even possible in the concept of power to remain human, to preserve some human sensations from life, people?..”

Igor Bochkin (the actor plays the father of the family - editor's note) and I prepared an improvisation-prank, and did not warn anyone, - series director Evgeny Semenov told StarHit. — That day we were filming a scene with Masha.

It was very funny.”

Despite this story, the director assured that all members of the film crew remained friends to this day: “This “project” was invented and filmed as a result of friendship. A very strong team has formed, which remains one whole even after production is completed. We miss each other, call each other, meet.

We now live the life of an ordinary Greek family and rarely go out into the world. In general, today we went to a restaurant, and it was very cool. Feel this autumn in my favorite city, Athens,

His name is Andrey, and he really is the namesake of my son and even my father! Hurray, press, at least you guessed something! Respect.
