Denis Shvedov is a popular domestic actor. Fame brought him roles in such films as "Major", "Major" and "Live". But in his filmography there are other equally successful projects.
Denis Eduardovich was born on November 24, 1981. It happened in a Moscow family that had nothing to do with either cinema or theater life.
Grew up in an incomplete family. The father died when the boy was very young. Therefore, the mother was engaged in the upbringing of the actor and his sister. It was very difficult for her, because she had to work late at several jobs.
As a child, Denis Shvedov did not even think about becoming an actor. He devoted almost all his free time to sports. He played excellent rugby, which was facilitated by the excellent physical characteristics of the actor.
After graduating from school, Denis entered the Institute of Tourism. Perhaps, the desire to travel played a significant role in the choice. Or maybe the actor did not care where exactly to get higher education. One thing is certain - Denis did not like to study. He got tired of attending lectures quickly enough.
That is why he listened with interest to his friend, who studied at the theater school. And he was jealous when he spoke about interesting lectures, famous teachers, original assignments. At the Institute of Tourism, Denis did not come across all this.
As a result, Denis never finished his studies. On the advice of his friend Alexander Serov-Ostankinsky, he decided to try his hand at cinema. And for this it was necessary to enter a theater studio, get an appropriate education. The choice fell on the Shchepkinsky school, since it was just closer to him to go. Although during the audition he was very worried, he managed to pass the first selection successfully. In addition, teachers approached him and offered him training on the course of Nikolai Afonin.
Although Denis was able to enter, he had no experience of performing on stage at all. And he did not attend theater clubs, he did not study acting. Therefore, I had to persevere, read a huge number of books and review many theatrical performances in order to catch up with my fellow students.
Such persistence has paid off. The film debut took place while still in training. Denis appeared in the film "The Weaknesses of a Strong Woman".
Having received his diploma, the aspiring artist, at the suggestion of Alexei Borodin, began to work at the Russian Academic Youth Theater. Denis Eduardovich approached each role responsibly. He knew how to masterfully transform. He played Don Quixote, Nyunin, and Martin Eden flawlessly.
Success in cinematography
Despite the huge number of roles in performances, Denis Eduardovich became famous thanks to cinema. At first, the actor appeared before the audience exclusively in secondary and episodic roles. Denis got his main role for the first time, playing in the movie "Kind Girlfriend for All". But this film also did not bring popularity to the talented man.
They began to recognize Denis after the release of the film project "Live". Having skillfully played his role, the actor received his first film award. He became a laureate of the "KinoRurik" festival.
Yuri Bykov liked how Denis showed himself on the set. Therefore, he invited him to the leading role in his next project called "Major". The motion picture became very successful. For his masterful acting, Denis again receives awards. His work was appreciated at the Pacific Meridian Film Festival, at the Kinotavr and in Shanghai.
The actor had another chance to work with Yuri Bykov. He got the main role in the film "The Collectors", appearing before the audience in the form of Sergei Khromov.
No less successful for Denis Shvedov were roles in such projects as "Star", "Major", "Major 2", "Village", "Method", "Elusive", "Eternal Cold", "Treason", "Run" … A new project of the renowned director Yuri Bykov "Zavod" will soon appear on the screens. Denis Shvedov will play the main role in this picture.
Off-set success

On the set, he could disappear for days. And he spent his vacations in Bali with his friends, where he went surfing.
However, the actor still fell in love. At the moment, he is in a relationship with actress Alexandra Rozovskaya. They have kids. In 2016, Miroslava was born, and two years later a son was born. The parents have not yet disclosed the name of the second child.
