Olga Bodrova Olga Bodrova followed in the footsteps of her famous father. She graduated from GITIS. She made her way to the “Workshop of Pyotr Fomenko”, began acting in films. But unlike many actresses, she did not postpone either marriage or the birth of a child. July 24 Olga celebrates her 25th birthday.

“Sits in a green armchair and drinks tea with lemon”

When the tragedy occurred in the Karmadon Gorge, Olga was only four years old. The descending Kolka glacier in September 2002 covered two camp sites and more than 120 people.

Including members of the film crew led by Sergei Bodrov Jr. As a director, he worked on the mystical action movie The Messenger, in which he himself was supposed to play the main role.

Olga and her younger brother Alexander were born in the marriage of Sergei with Svetlana Mikhailova, who worked as a director on television. Viewers, for example, owe it to the exciting TV program “Sharks of the Pen”. Bodrov was once one of the hosts of the TV program “Vzglyad”.

The son does not remember Bodrov Jr. at all, because he was born shortly before the death of his father. And Olga retained at least some of her own memories: “He sits in the village in a green armchair and drinks tea with lemon without fail from a large cup. I remember his smile. And just light – I remember it as light first of all.

Why did Olga also decide to become an actress? As the heiress of the artist and director says, everything did not happen spontaneously. Bodrova from childhood loved to dance, go to the cinema and the theater.

“I was an excellent student at school and thought that a useful profession was needed. I began to analyze my life. One important person told me: “Art conquers sorrow.” This phrase is the meaning of this profession for me. The idea is to give people some kind of joy, to make them happier,” says Olga.

“If I choose, then I will choose the theater”

At GITIS, she studied at the directing department – with Leonid Kheifets. Shortly following graduation, Olga played her first film role and immediately the main one – in the drama “The Sea Worries Once”. Received a prize at the Kinotavr festival.

In the troupe of the theater “Workshop of Pyotr Fomenko” Bodrova made her debut as Lara in the production of “Doctor Zhivago”. Olga was also taken in the performances “A Thousand and One Nights”, “The Testament of Charles Adams”, “The Cherry Orchard”, “The Tearing Movements of Water”.

In the filmography of the actress, there are only five works so far. In 2023, a picture with the participation of Bodrova “Passion for Matvey” was released.

Olga believes: “You can’t be in time everywhere. If you understand that you cannot be one hundred percent both there and there, you have to choose. And if you choose, then I will choose the theater.

So far life has not put Olga before a very tough choice. And in the last four months, the most important tasks for Bodrova are not connected with the stage and not with the set.

“What difference does it make if you get married now or later?”

Olga got married three years ago. She was only 22, her career was just beginning. Why didn’t Bodrova delay her marriage? Now is not the time to immediately run to the registry office.

Open and direct Olga answered the question quite directly:

“I was driven by love, of course. This is some kind of feeling when you become not afraid, when you suddenly realize that next to this person you feel good. And you want to be with him, and then what difference does it make to get married now or later?

She chose a man with the same name as her father, even the surname is consonant. Olga’s husband Sergey Bystrov is her colleague. He is nine years older. He also studied at GITIS – with Dmitry Krymov and Evgeny Kamenkovich. Was accepted into the theater. Mayakovsky.

He has only played four roles in films so far. Including in such a famous film as “My Angel Boyfriend”. The main actor has not yet been trusted.

In March of this year, good news came – Olga and Sergey became parents. They named their only daughter Love. Bodrov Jr. will no longer know that he has become a grandfather. But Svetlana Bodrova enjoys the role of a grandmother. She never remarried following the death of her husband.
