The external data of an actor is one of the most important components that give the green light to the world of Hollywood and Bollywood. But almost no one thinks about how important an actor's voice is. And today you will learn about far from the last, but for a number of reasons, not such a popular profession and about an amazing person of this profession, a dubbing actor - Vladimir Radchenko.
Family of Vladimir Radchenko
Vladimir Radchenko was the only child in the family. Little is known about his parents. Vladimir's father died in an enemy prisoner of war camp, and his mother was an editor of French literature.
Looking ahead, we can say that the personal life of Vladimir Radchenko was successful. The love of his life, his wife Natalya, was an architect by training. Together they had two sons - Sergei and Nikolai. By the way, Sergei Radchenko also chose the career of an actor.
Creative way
Vladimir Vladimirovich Radchenko is a child of war. No more, no less. He was born in Moscow at the height of the Great Patriotic War on January 26, 1942. Needless to say, it was a difficult time, perhaps for everyone. I think no.
Despite this, little Volodya grew, developed and matured to the point that he decided to enter a theater university - the Moscow Art Theater School. True, he succeeded only after four attempts.
Prior to that, he studied at the medical faculty of one of the capital's universities. True, he studied his specialty for only 4 years and was drafted into the Armed Forces of the Soviet Union right from his student days.
But we will fast forward a little. Indeed, as a third-year student at the Moscow Art Theater School, Vladimir Radchenko received an invitation to become part of the troupe of the Moscow Satire Theater. The main director of the Satire Theater at that time, Valentin Pluchek, noticed the talent of the novice actor at his graduation performance and extended his hand, if not help, then a friendly greeting in a new place.
At the Satire Theater, Vladimir Vladimirovich for 30 years, taking turns with the notorious Spartak Mishulin, played the role of Carlson in a children's comedy performance about our beloved Kid and Carlson.
A voice from a beautiful far away
At the same time, along with serving on the stage, Vladimir Radchenko was a dubbing actor.
He took part in the dubbing of many films, including the well-known "Doctor Dolittle-2", "Big Mommy's House", "Tango and Cash".
The voice of Vladimir Vladimirovich can be heard in a number of cartoons, such as "Ice Age", "Inspector Gadget" and many others. Moreover, he became the voice of Disney's Black Cloak in almost all episodes, with the exception of only three episodes. His fruitful work on this character attracted the love of many children who watched the adventures of the superhero drake.
And who knows how many more wonderful characters Vladimir Radchenko would have voiced if it were not for an incurable disease. The actor died on July 25, 2004 at the age of 63. He was buried at the Nikolo-Arkhangelsk cemetery.
Afterword …
And whether by the evil fate of fate, or by God's grace (it depends on who believes in what), Vladimir Radchenko was born at that time, during the war. Did it somehow radically affect his life? It is hard to say. You know, in the life of each of us, something is a consequence of something. Looking at his creative path, one can only say that he honestly gave all of himself to the chosen profession. And is more required of a person?
