The son of Legchilova and Bochkin dreams of becoming Chuk or Gek

70 years following the release of the classic adaptation of the famous story by Arkady Gaidar “Chuk and Gek” directed by Ivan Lukinsky, the modern director Alexander Kott decided to overshadow his success and shot – let’s not be afraid of this word – the blockbuster “Chuk and Gek. Big Adventure”. All secular Moscow gathered for the first screening of a film filled with many special effects and grandiose shootings with the participation of a huge number of stars.

One of the children’s surprises of the new “Chuk and Huck” was that the older brother Huck was played by the son of the deceased actor Yuri Stepanov – Yura Stepanov Jr. He was born 17 days following the tragic death of his 42-year-old father in a car accident in March 2010.

Ivan Kokorin was with his mistress – singer Lena Sementsova

The boy is a copy of his father. For him, this is the third film role. Now – main. He famously worked on the site in the bitter cold and was not afraid to play in the frame with a bear, a goat, horses and a pack of wolves. And he did his own stunts.

Vitalia Kornienko starred in almost a hundred films by the age of 12

At first, the film adheres to the outline of Gaidar’s story. Viewers are shown a geologist-dad working in the taiga (Vladimir Vdovichenkov). Then we are transferred to Moscow, where his mother (Yulia Snigir) and two weather-friendly sons are waiting for him in a large communal apartment. The younger Chuk was played by Andryusha Andreev, who had already starred with Vdovichenkov in the comedy “Dad”.

“Chuk and Gek” – Andryusha Andreev and Yura Stepanov Jr. (his father is in a circle)

Gradually, the authors of the film deviate from the classic plot and fill the picture with interesting characters. It turns out that the brothers’ mother works as a singer. And at her performance, the boys make a funny commotion in front of the hero Roman Madyanov. Then, as in a book, a telegram comes to mom, and she takes the children to dad for the New Year in the taiga. Raisa Dmitrenko, the winner of the Voice 60+ show, played the conductor on the train, and Timofey Tribuntsev played the role of their fellow traveler.

58-year-old Alexander Samoilenko (played a coachman in the film) brought his wife Natasha and their daughter Eva to the show

We will not reveal all the plot twists. The spectacle was breathtaking. Quite worthy of taking the children to the cinema before the New Year. All the celebrities we interviewed at the premiere liked the tape.

The six-year-old son of Anna Legchilova and Igor Bochkin Vanechka, who was born when she was 46, and he was 59 years old, was very interested in his mother – when will he also act in films and become Gek or Chuk.

– Better immediately Bondarchuk – smiled Legchilova.
