Fans of theater and cinema in our country have always marked the characters of Igor Bochkin with the epithets: courageous, strong, indomitable, - not by chance, because today's People's Artist of the Russian Federation is like that in real life. It is these traits of his character that have found the greatest recognition in the domestic artistic environment.
People's Artist of Russia Igor Ivanovich Bochkin is today an example of those famous theater and film actors, whose names and characters are simply unthinkable not to know in our country. It is these talents that adorn the stage and film sets with their mere presence.
Biography of Igor Bochkin
In a Moscow family, very far from the world of art and culture, on February 17, 1957, the future talented brutalist was born. Igor Bochkin very harmoniously transferred his image of a "hardened man" from real life to his theatrical and "cinematic" characters, becoming the personification of creative masculinity, which cannot be put into the framework of controllability.
The life of an ordinary metropolitan teenager literally changed after one day he was in the field of view of the assistant director of the film project "Lights". The mischievous look of the young Bochkin was very suitable for the format of the main character - Kuzka Zhuravlev. And then almost immediately there was the role of Misha Basharin in the film "Red Sun" (1972). However, such a powerful film debut did not turn the head of our hero, and he entered GITIS only after serving in a tank company.
In 1981, Bochkin joined the troupe of the Moscow theater. Gogol, where he was marked by many significant roles for seven years. I would especially like to note his characters in the performances: "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest", "Landing Area Unknown" and "Shore".
And then the Theater im. Pushkin, where he realized not only as a talented actor, but also received recognition as a stage director. In this role, Igor Bochkin made his debut with the production of "Last Summer in Chulimsk" based on the literary work of A. Vampilov. Among his recent directorial works, I would like to note the projects: "The Most-Most" and "Not Like Everybody else."
Undoubtedly, cinema has brought particular popularity to the People's Artist. It is worth noting here his talented film works in the films: "State of emergency on a regional scale" (1988), "Goryachev and others" (1992-1994), "Report" (1995), "Barkhanov and his bodyguard" (1996), "Moscow saga" (2004), “Saboteur. The End of the War”(2007),“The Adventures of the Notary Neglintsev”(2008),“Reporting Fate”(2011),“Unloved”(2012),“My Sister, Love”(2015),“Love Network”(2016),“Loyalty "(2017), Cycle" (2017) and many others.
Personal life of the artist
Creative fertility could not but be reflected in the actor's loving nature. To date, his amorous victories are countless, having gone over any specific mathematical numbers on his scale. The first marriage with his wife Alisa Zvenyagina (granddaughter of the legendary general) remained in Bochkin's memory as an "immature student".
The second wife named Svetlana was the model Vyacheslav Zaitseva. This marriage was marked by the birth of her daughter Alexandra, who today lives with her mother in Spain. The family union broke up immediately after the birth of a new family member.
The third wife, Svetlana Zubkova, was the keeper of the family hearth for quite a long time, but even here the status of eternity was not attainable.
Since 2002, the actress Anna Legchilova has become the bearer of the title of the wife. According to many acquaintances of the creative couple, it was in this union that Igor Bochkin became a happy family man, despite the absence of children.
