If someone did not immediately understand who will be discussed in this article, you just need to remember the series "Mentovskie wars". It was he who made the hero of this article famous. So, Alexander Ustyugov, whose biography includes acting and not only ...

Childhood

The future actor was born on October 17, 1976 in the Pavlodar region (a small town of Ekibastuz) in the family of a master of carpentry and a kindergarten teacher. As a child, Alexander Ustyugov, whose biography includes the fact that he visited an art school, was a calm, diligent boy. Sasha, in parallel with teaching in the general education school, attended classes in the theater studio at the Danko People's Theater.

The school program was not particularly difficult for him. From the very beginning he was a diligent student, he read well, wrote, quickly solved problems and examples.

How not to make a mistake and make the right choice?

Despite the fact that he was drawing (he even gave birthday cards to his mother for every holiday), and he liked to play, when the question arose of choosing a profession, he hesitated. Moreover, to these hobbies during adolescence boxing was added. He even went to the section, which the caring mother was not so happy about, for fear of various injuries. And he did not start playing on stage immediately. At first, he was attracted to the profession of a props, and with great zeal and tremendous perseverance he created the necessary props and decorations for productions. As a result, he did not choose the creative path. Instead of going to school, he left for vocational school. There, Alexander Ustyugov, whose biography was just beginning to accommodate the variety of his throwing, received the profession of an electrician for repair and installation of mining equipment. In the final year, he tried to earn extra money. But even this did not prevent him from obtaining a diploma with distinction.

Academy and theater

To realize his dream and get the same higher education, Alexander leaves his native town and goes to study at the Omsk State Academy of Railways. First to the full-time department, but after a while it is translated into correspondence. In parallel with his studies, he begins to work as an illuminator in the local Youth Theater. Thanks to this biography of actor Alexander Ustyugov has replenished with one more important line. This work was for him the defining one in his further creative life. Here he realized that he was not going to devote his life to the railway. The meaning of his existence is acting.

Very soon, the young man becomes a member of the theater's theater troupe. He is now engaged in many performances. In time, he even tries himself in directing. His debut was the play "These free butterflies." A little later, there were other performances ...

The birth of an actor

So, I firmly decided to become an actor Alexander Ustyugov. His biography, while short, but interesting, contains another important fact for him - admission to the Omsk Regional College of Culture and Art, which he graduated in 1996. The young actor decides to move to the capital. He managed to make a good impression on the leaders of the Russian Academic Youth Theater. Thus, he became part of the theatrical company. Behind the scenes a new, unlike anything else, life of Alexander began.

It was in these walls that the actor Alexander Ustyugov, whose biography was now filled with interesting works, played a lot of roles. Perhaps the brightest of them is the main character in the notorious fairy tale of E. Schwartz "The Shadow" (he was even awarded the prestigious "Chaika" and "Moscow Debuts" for his work). The second "Seagull" he received for the play "The Idiot" (according to Dostoevsky).

Way to the big screen

Many years of friendship with the cinema began in 2002. But the first swallows of success arrived only a couple of years later. It was at this time that the audience got acquainted with the new story about the life of the slaughter department of the Northern capital of Russia. This was the series "Mentovskie wars". The role of the head of the department UGRO embodied on the screen Ustyugov. Of course, over the past one and a half or two decades have been shooting a lot of pictures of this kind. But still he very successfully drew the image of a human rights defender unlike other people, who seemed to be real and very familiar to every spectator.

To play plausibly, the actor often came to the real police stations, watched how the servants of the law work, how they smoke, how they hold the telephone during the conversation.

The biography of actor Alexander Ustyugov contains another very important fact: the role of Yevgeny Bazarov in the adaptation of the novel "Fathers and Sons". When the picture was only conceived, the actor was considered almost the only contender for this role. The creators of the film tried to choose a performer not just famous and famous, but one that would match Bazarov's inner qualities. Ustyugov went well.

10 years ago fans of soap operas could delight their gaze with a new series - "Adjutants of Love". Alexander Ustyugov embodied the role of Plato Tolstoy on the screen. Work had a lot: 12 and even 20 hours a day. But even the crazy fatigue did not serve as the basis for the actor to refuse filming. At that time, he was not invited to other paintings, but among the young actors, the competition was very large. Unfortunately, the ratings of the series were not high, and after shooting only 80 series, it was decided to end this project.

The following year brought Ustyugov a new job: in 2006 he was invited to appear in the TV series "Peter the Magnificent". After reading the proposed scenario, the young man decided to respond with consent, it suited him. And the character was not similar to those that Alexander played before. His task was to show the audience an impudent and hamovaty, sly and cheerful provincial Peter Kotelnikov. This he did the best.

In the autumn of last year, the new series "Plague" appeared on the screens, in which the actor who played the role of human rights defender for several seasons of the "Mentovski wars" got the role of a negative character - Mikhail Tabakov. But in this case Ustyugov managed to approach the role in such a way as to show the motives of the criminal. He even tried to evoke in the audience the desire to at least understand this man. It should be noted that in this series Ustyugov acts not only as an actor. He is also the chief director.

Love and family

Even in his student years he created his strong family Alexander Ustyugov. Personal biography of him was always under lock and key, and only recently he let a few journalists into his life. Even at the Schukinsky school he met Yanina Sokolovskaya. She immediately liked him. The only thing that embarrassed him was that he was a visitor from a simple family, and she was the daughter of wealthy parents, a native Muscovite. In August 2005, they played a posh wedding, and in 2007 they became the parents of a charming daughter.

This is the biography of Alexander Ustyugov. His personal life has developed. The only thing he dreams about with his wife is about the son.
