Danila Dunaev

Danila Dunaev is a psychologist by his first education. Knowledge of human souls and the reasons for actions undoubtedly helps him as an actor. Perhaps that is why, or maybe because he just loves cinema, Dunaev is ready to play in films of any genre and style.

Danila was born in July 1981 in Moscow in the family of an economist and a famous sportsman-fencer. He has an older sister, Yaroslav, who lives in Kyrgyzstan and works as a designer.

In 2002, the head of the family, Leonid Dunaev, died. The actor characterizes those times as the most difficult period in his biography, when he had to take care of his mother and sister. However, this tempering helped to achieve success and learn to live in the harsh modernity.

For his height and weight (now it is 2 meters and 90 kg, respectively), classmates called Danila Giraffe and Elephant, but the guy did not take offense. He studied computer science in depth, played the accordion and danced, was engaged in swimming, karate, freestyle wrestling and fencing.

After graduating from school, Dunaev entered the Moscow Aviation Institute at the Faculty of Psychology, and then graduated from the Shchukin Theater School, and in the 4th year he accidentally ended up at the Shchukin School - played KVN. He came because he was told that this is the best theatrical university. At the exam, the guy read poems of his own composition, but did not defeat the commission, therefore the first round was held three times and twice - the second. They took Danila rather because of the texture.

Danila tries not to spread about his personal life, although it is known that the first wife Irina gave the actor the sons Fyodor and Innokenty. After a painful divorce, the boys' parents still maintained friendly relations. The father constantly communicates with the children and does everything so that they do not feel discomfort.

Second wife Elena Dunaeva is a professional photographer. In 2012, a daughter, Elizabeth, was born in the family.

In an interview, the artist dispelled rumors of an affair with dancer Ekaterina Zharova. The couple met in their youth, but nothing came of it. And Danila wrote the song "Be my wife" not for Katya, but "based on what a woman wants to hear from a man."

There was no official romance with Lyanka Gryu. To all the questions, Dunaev answered that journalists like to invent fables.

As a spectator, he enjoys fantastic and dramatic films. Among the favorites - "Mr. and Mrs. Smith", "Real Ghouls", "Gone Girl" with Ben Affleck. Danila would like to work in Hollywood, but only out of curiosity, because in America and Russia approaches to filmmaking are different.

“Instagram” for Dunaev is a way of communicating with fans and a means of broadcasting news. In addition to funny posts and comic pictures, he posts photos from film sets, announcements of theatrical premieres.

The actor apparently met 2020 with the family of Larisa Guzeeva. The corresponding pictures were published in the accounts of colleagues. And if Danila's subscribers only expressed bewilderment and scolded for an abnormal comment, then the star of "Tough Romance" was attacked with insults. As a result, Guzeeva closed access to the photo for haters.

An adult man also has a childhood hobby. In the studio of "Evening Urgant" Dunaev said that he was assembling constructors. This is not only a hobby: “since the bear has stepped on his hand” and he cannot draw, he thus makes storyboards for future films.

As a director, makes short films. Rabbit, for example, won the main prize for Best Foreign Film at The Honolulu Film Awards. "Wonderful Woman" with Glafira Tarkhanova was awarded the Grand Prix of the Amur Autumn Festival, the Audience Prize of the International Film Festival "Briefly!" and two awards at the First Russian-Chinese Short Film Competition.

Immediately after finishing "Pike" Danila was enrolled in the troupe of the Vakhtangov Theater. For a year he played at the Mayakovsky Theater in the performances "Anna Karenina", "Dead Souls", "Handsome Man". After a short break, he returned to the stage, having signed a contract with the theater of Alexander Kalyagin Et Cetera, but left there as well.

Dunaev is more impressed by the film set, because there is collective creativity, new people constantly come, and at the end of the day they go home. The theater, "like a sect," requires unconditional devotion.

The actor triumphantly started in the cinema while still a student. The talented young man was noticed by Svetlana Druzhinina and Anatoly Mukasey and invited to the main role in the series "Secrets of Palace Revolutions". In parallel, Dunaev played in the fantasy "Young Wolfhound" and the film "The Return of the Musketeers", the last in the filmography of Igor Starygin.

His hero in the melodrama "My Last First Love" is a terminally ill PR man who finally decided to meet the famous TV presenter. In the romantic film May Rain, the duet of Danila and Irina Tarannik fights for peace and quiet in the house with an irrepressible neighbor in the person of Artyom Tkachenko. Dunaev's character in the series "Divorce", a columnist, has to solve family problems provoked by the untimely publication of his own article.

The young actor parodied Nikita Mikhalkov in the comedy "The Best Film - 2" and expressed the hope that the master would not be offended and would not remember a harmless joke if he suddenly wanted to give him a job in his cinema. The director of the film, Oleg Fomin, later called his friend to the detective story "Glaciers". There, the actor reincarnated as the notorious son of a rich man who dreams of self-realization as a journalist.

After that Danila became the main face of the comedy "Novosti", in which he brilliantly played the role of TV presenter Gleb Chernov and his kind double, which brought a lot of approving reviews from fans and new proposals. The artist's filmography was replenished with the projects "Rules of Life", "Divorce", "May Rain". The artist wrote the music for this film.

In 2014, Dunaev tried on the white coat of a doctor in the series "Pregnancy Test". Svetlana Ivanova, Kirill Grebenshchikov, Anna Kamenkova, Artur Vakha also got the leading roles in medical melodrama. In "Sweet Life" he has an unexpected image of the owner of an architectural bureau, a representative of a non-traditional orientation.

In 2016, the actor worked on the "Hotel Russia". The film plunges into the atmosphere of the 70s and shows the life of the employees of an elite hotel, who have to both accompany important political figures and become witnesses of crimes and machinations. Here, the audience noticed how Dunaev's dynamics, intonations and posture resemble the young Alexander Abdulov.

Soon Danila delighted fans with a game in the Russian-Portuguese project "Mata Hari", appeared in the detective story "The One Who Reads Minds" about a forensic consultant with psychic abilities. Following with the participation of the actor came out the melodrama "Girls Don't Give Up" and the picture "Trigger", where the main character was played by Maxim Matveyev.

In 2019, the second season of the "Pregnancy Test", which was loved by viewers, was released. In the series, Danila still plays a reproductive doctor, the former lover of the heroine Svetlana Ivanova. This time he has an affair with the character of Lyanka Gryu.

The actor did not speak about the possibility of continuing the film, he generally believes that even the first part was completed logically and there was no point in developing the project. But because the show is so successful, the producers can be led by the audience.

In the same year, the gallery of Dunaev's images was replenished with the role of Gabriel Derzhavin, the beloved poet and state secretary of the Russian empress, in the drama Ekaterina. Impostors. " A number of critics have not liked the historical tape since the 1st season: the inaccuracy of the facts, the abundance of outright blunders, events that are not deciphered at the same time.

In the third part, the graceful Marina Aleksandrova plays Catherine II, who at that time was pretty grown-up in her life. Of the advantages, they attached more importance to the heroes of Pavel Tabakov and Vladimir Yaglych, although the performers seemed unconvincing to some. Delight was caused only by luxurious interiors and costumes, some of which were made in Europe.

Talking about the TEFI-awarded TV series Pirogov IP, Dunaev emphasized that this is not really a sitcom. The film crew tried to present the heroes as close as possible to living people. Therefore, there are no positive and negative as such, "all complex, with their own motivations and fears, noble manifestations and not so much." In the film, the actor appeared in the form of an official cheating on his wife with a neighbor, wasting money, but eventually realizing how selfish he was.

In addition, an external transformation takes place with the hero of Danila in the 2nd season of PI Pirogova. According to the plot, Elena Podkaminskaya's on-screen husband goes to prison. And since the life of the inmates is not sugar, the man had to lose 10 kg. The producers promised to present the third season of the film in the summer of 2020.

Music for Dunaev is no less a passion than cinema. The records of world stars were supplied by his father, a two-time world champion in fencing, who has traveled half the world. And although the actor studied at the music school for only 2 years, at the institute he managed to earn money as a DJ. There are tens of thousands of records in Danila's home collection.

A chance meeting with arranger and composer Evgeny Tkachenko (aka John Olin) developed into close collaboration and recording of several albums. The actor performs intellectual hip-hop, performs with his own team DDBAND.

Dunaev teaches acting. Yuri Shlykov, head of the course, recommended the teacher of yesterday's graduate of the Shchukin School. The artist-psychologist is convinced that even the most eminent star, be it the level of Jack Nicholson or Sergei Makovetsky, does not play for the camera, but shows himself. If a movie hero is a scoundrel, then let no one be offended, but this is the edge of human nature.

Dunaev's author's master course is unique in that a lot of time is devoted to psychology there. He came up with the ironic program # Poetry, a kind of combination of recitation, music concert and motivational training. According to the audience, 2 hours spent in the hall is comparable to a year's visit to a psychoanalyst.

The actor himself is an open person, an empath, and his methods are applicable in everyday life, teach to remove emotional clamps, confidently speak in public and quickly establish interpersonal communications.

In the television shows "Just the same" and "One to one", he first got into this capacity, and then he himself successfully reincarnated as Elvis Presley, Joe Cocker, Lev Leshchenko, Alexander Novikov and Dieter Bohlen.

The popular programs were preceded by a sitcom with elements of reality and stand-up "Newbies" about young people dreaming of making a career in television. Besides Dunaev, Vasily Soloviev and Guram Bablishvili are involved in the company of friends exploring the Ostankino back streets. The highlight was that famous Channel One stars, whose roles were not written in the script, shared their experience with novice colleagues: the directors relied on improvisation.

In the Ukrainian melodrama "Our Doctor" professional problems of doctors again intersect with personal ones. The main character is an ambitious career woman, a surgeon who is afraid of not having time to save a person's life. A tragic accident forces her to resign from an elite clinic and start all over again in a children's clinic.

The ensemble of the film, in addition to Dunaev, included Anna Taratorkina, Dmitry Pchela and the host of the show "X-Factor" Daria Tregubova.
