The eminent actress turned his whole life upside down.
Oleg Stefanko became a star of Soviet cinema and a favorite of women following appearing in the film In Search of Captain Grant. But he failed to stay on the wave of success: in the early 90s, the actor emigrated to the United States, and he was almost forgotten at home.
Today in Stefanko you don’t recognize that blond handsome man from the films of the 80s at all – Oleg has aged and matured. This is not surprising, because the fate of the actor was not easy.
Most recently, the artist made a shocking confession, naming the culprit, or rather, the culprit, because of which his life turned upside down. It was the legendary actress Elina Bystritskaya, who had a personal dislike for Stefanko. There was a serious conflict between Oleg and the prima theater when they played in the same performance. At the initiative of Elina Abramovna, it was extended by 40 minutes so that she would stay on stage as long as possible. Stefanko tried to prove that because of this the whole performance was ruined, but Bystritskaya gave him a huge scandal. The actor had to leave the theater, and later he emigrated to the United States, because there was no work in Russia.
In the noughties, Stefanko returned to his homeland and became a successful serial actor. He spoke regarding his winding path to success on the My Hero program with Tatyana Ustinova.
