Laureate of the Cannes Film Festival in the nomination "Best Actor" in 2007 (the film "Banishment") and the owner of a number of prestigious international prizes for the best male role in the film "Return" (both films directed by Andrei Zvyagintsev) - Konstantin Lavronenko - today is the real pride of the national cinema. Recently, his talented and most diverse films have been celebrated annually in two or three films.
Brief biography and filmography of Konstantin Lavronenko
The future theater and film actor was born in Rostov-on-Don on April 20, 1961 in the most ordinary Soviet family, which has nothing to do with the world of theater and cinema. My mother worked in a library, and my father worked in a factory. His older sister Olga attended a theater group at the Rostselmash Palace of Culture, led by Galina Zhigunova. It was this fact that played a decisive role with Kostya, since she immediately noticed the talent for the art of reincarnation in the young talent and even took him to Moscow to enter the Shchukin school. However, then the venture failed due to the young age of Lavronenko.
Returning to his hometown, Konstantin was forced to acquire thematic skills at the local drama school, and at the age of eighteen he was drafted into the army, where his compulsory service was held in the song and dance ensemble.
In 1981, our hero entered the Moscow Art Theater School on the course to Vasily Markov. And then there was Satyricon and successful collaboration with Mark Zakharov in Lenkom at Mirzoev's studio. After the transformation of this studio due to the departure of Mirzoev to Canada in the "Klim Workshop" (the troupe of Vladimir Klimenko) Lavronenko was able to go on tour in many European countries. After seven years of such a life, Konstantin suddenly realized that this path was of no interest to him and left the stage.
At this time, the actor had to completely change his worldview. He worked as a taxi driver and marketer, realized himself in the restaurant business (a chain of theater restaurants), having worked his way up from an assistant director to the head of an organization. But, even having achieved some success in the material sense, Lavronenko was forced to admit that his meaning of life lies in something completely different.
Today, the artist's filmography speaks very eloquently about his undoubted acting talent, because the list of films amazes the imagination: “I still love, I still hope”, “Return”, “Archangel”, “Master”, “Nanjing Landscape”, “Exile”, “Open, Santa Claus!”,“You Can't Catch Us”,“Elimination”,“Isaev”,“New Land”,“Operation Chinese Box”,“Once in Rostov”,“Everyone Has Their Own War”and others.
Personal life of the artist
Konstantin Lavronenko is married only once, despite the costs of his profession in this matter. Lydia Petrakova became the wife of the artist in 1987, when they worked together at Satyricon. In this marriage, their daughter Ksenia was born in 1990, who refused to follow in her father's footsteps, graduating from the Faculty of Journalism.
It is known that Konstantin Nikolaevich often visits his hometown, where his mother and sister live. In addition, the domestic celebrity loves to spend time in Europe, constantly expanding the geography of his travels.
Since in the life of the actor there was a terrible car accident, in which he almost died and underwent many operations, he is now very closely monitoring his health, completely abandoning harmful addictions: smoking and alcohol.
