Alexander Pashkov refers to the actors who made themselves, literally punching their way to the dream of being on the screen, living fake lives with the characters, making them love or hate their cinematic appearance.

Children's dream

Today, the name Alexander Pashkov can often be seen on the screen in the credits. The biography of the actor says that he went to this hard. Alexander was born in Yekaterinburg on November 15, 1979, in an ordinary family that has nothing to do with the theater world. All of them are police officers. Mom sent Sasha to a theater specialization school with in-depth training in choreography. The boy danced superbly and was so talented that at the age of 9 he was accepted into the ballet school at the Musical Comedy Theater in Yekaterinburg. From childhood, he insisted that he would only be an actor. Alexander finished school in a theater specialized class. The whole group went to conquer GITIS and other theatrical universities, but only one of his eleven friends entered. And Pashkov returned to his native city, where he was known in theatrical circles, because from the age of 14 (immediately after graduating from the ballet school) he was listed as an official artist at the Academic Theater of Musical Comedy. Alexander Pashkovbecame a student of the Yekaterinburg State Theater Institute in the workshop of A. V. Petrov. Graduated in 2001.

Additional talents

Pashkov is a restless person, he tries himself in different areas. For example, as a child, Alexander successfully worked as a driver at the Sverdlovsk film studio, not yet having a license, but at the same time quite successfully, because his father taught him how to drive a car before school. Alexander Pashkov also tried his hand at business. In his student years, together with friends, he tried to organize an elite production center and arrange evenings in the Russian outback with the participation of eminent artists. It ended in nothing and debts, because people in small towns did not want to pay big money for something that can be seen on TV for free, and the credibility of such activities was undermined due to numerous doubles. But Alexander is difficult to stop in the development of new speci alties. He worked in a car service and learned how to putty and paint cars. He became interested in airbrushing, but again he was unlucky - the premises were taken away, he had to close. Now the actor dreams of his own directing, laboriously working on it and hoping that he will definitely succeed.

To the capital

At his native Sverdlovsk film studio, life slowly died down, and Pashkov did not want to leave his beloved work. Alexander was already married to the only woman in his life, actress Anzhelika Pashkova. I had to earn extra money by taxi at night to feed my family, since Alina's daughter was born at that time. But he's allstill decided to go to the capital to the only close friend, director Alexander Meleshko. They rented a room together, and Pashkov beat the thresholds of studios and agencies, received tiny episodes, but did not give up. His first episode was the role of a tractor driver in 2001 in the film “Halfway to Paris”, then a whole series of minor roles of policemen in the famous films “Investigation is conducted by ZnatoKi”, “The Return of Mukhtar”, “People and Shadows 2. Optical Illusion”, “Guys from our city”, “72 meters”. There was no money, but there were ambitions. He worked as a courier with completely barbaric conditions. Survived. I got into the cinema only because of extreme fatigue, because I mixed up the views. But the result was great - he was invited to the series Ondine-2. On the crest of a wave”for the main role. This is how Alexander Pashkov appeared on the big screen, whose biography presents us with this person as a standard of perseverance and striving to achieve the goal.
