Natalya Surkova

Natalya Surkova is a Russian theater and film actress, Honored Artist of Russia. The best works of the actress are considered roles in the military drama "Ours", the social film "Fool", in the TV series "Favorite" and "Great".

Natalia was born in Nizhny Novgorod in a working-class family: her father worked at a factory, and her mother often went on business trips to Moscow and St. Petersburg. At that time, the Surkov family was considered prosperous, because the mother from frequent business trips brought foreign new things. External well-being, coupled with external attractiveness, caused envy and rejection of others and peers.

The need for communication and self-expression allowed Natalia to make an early decision to become an actress. Even as a child, the girl loved to stage performances, where she attracted friends, and relatives and neighbors were supposed to be spectators.

After school Natalia entered the Gorky Theater School, where her teachers were V.S.Sokoloverov and R. Ya. Levite.

Immediately after graduation, Natalya began to work in the troupe of the Cheboksary theater. A few years later, she was noticed and invited to the stage of the Young Theater at Lenkontsert by director Semyon Spivak. Surkova still does not understand what Semyon Yakovlevich found in her.

The creative collaboration between the director and the actress did not start so optimistically. Right during the rehearsals of the first performance of the actress - "Tango" - Surkova's partners offered the director to remove Natalia from the role. But Spivak had the patience to wait three months, when the actress, in her own words, “struck” and she revealed herself in all her glory.

Later there were the roles of "Killer Whale" and "Pannochka" in the productions of the same name, Lucille - in "Bourgeois in the Nobility" and Countess de Saint Fon in "The Marquis de Sade". The joint work of the young actress and her artistic director turned out to be long and fruitful.

Natalya Surkova began acting in films in 1986, simultaneously with the beginning of her work at the Young Theater. Her first work was her role in the musical film "Here Again This Courtyard" about the inhabitants of Leningrad. In the same year, the artist appeared in the episode of the spy detective "End of Operation" Resident ", where she appeared in the guise of a young Soviet saleswoman. The first screen tests were followed by a 12-year break.

Even before gaining popularity, already in the 21st century, the actress starred with two famous directors. In 1998, she appeared in the famous TV series "Cops" with Vladimir Bortko. The first full-length film, in which Surkova starred in 2000, was called "Gladiatrix" (in the English version - "Arena"). The picture became the debut work of Timur Bekmambetov.

However, the first truly notable work in the creative biography of Surkova was the role of the fortuneteller Zhanna in the serial film Lines of Fate (2003), which was a great success with the public. Inimitable Valentina Talyzina, Irina Rozanova, Sergey Garmash, Konstantin Khabensky became Natalia Surkova's partners in the frame.

Audience recognition came to Surkova after the role of Anna in the military drama "Svoi", directed by Dmitry Meskhiev in 2004. This film was highly appreciated by critics and received dozens of awards: five nominations at the XXVI Moscow International Film Festival, Nika and Golden Eagle awards, as well as the Golden Aries film critics and film critics awards, where Surkova's performance was especially noted.

To get a better feel for the role, the actress spent several weeks before filming with her daughter among the villagers, doing all their usual hard work. Initially, the insufficiently portly Surkova had few chances to get the role of a "Russian woman". However, Dmitry Meskhiev saw her in the role of Anna and demanded that the actress gain at least 8 kg. Surkova gained 24 kg. These efforts did not go unnoticed, for her work in the film "Svoi" Natalya Surkova received a prize from the Actors Guild of American Cinema.

2005 brought the actress to participate in another military drama "Alka" about the pupils of the choreographic school who went to the front. Natalia got the role of a military paramedic. And in the film adaptation of Mikhail Bulgakov's novel "The Master and Margarita", which was undertaken by Vladimir Bortko, the actress appeared in the guise of Anna Richardovna's secretary. Alexander Galibin, Anna Kovalchuk, Oleg Basilashvili, Sergey Bezrukov, Vladislav Galkin, Alexander Abdulov shone in the cast of the mystical series. In the melodrama "The Princess and the Pauper", the actress tried on the role of a train station bum.

Another notable work of that time for Natalya was the role of Catherine II in the TV series "Favorite", for her the artist received the prize of the film festival "Vivat, Cinema of Russia!" in the category "Best Actress". The film focused on the relationship between the Empress and Grigory Potemkin (Igor Botvin), with whom the Empress decided to marry in secret.

The actress is not afraid of experiments, so in the black comedy "7 Booths" she took on the characteristic role of a heroine named Lyudok. The film brought together a stellar acting company - Kristina Kuzmina, Alexey Barabash, Mikhail Yevlanov, Fyodor Bondarchuk and Alexander Yatsenko. At the same time, the artist was transported to the era of the reign of Nicholas II, which was recreated in the series "Stolypin ... Unlearned lessons." Natalia embodied on the screen the image of the wife of the Chairman of the Council of Ministers.

The role of Shura's mother in the film "One War" did not go unnoticed by critics. In 2009, Natalya Surkova was awarded the prize of the Amur Autumn Film Festival in Blagoveshchensk. In 2010, with the participation of Natalya Surkova, the second part of the war film "We are from the Future" was released.

Surkova's filmography includes more than thirty films and serials, including participation in the rating films "1814", "The Musketeers of Catherine" and "The Brothers Karamazov". Natalia Surkova starred in three films by Nikita Mikhalkov: "12", "Burnt by the Sun: Anticipation" and "Sunstroke".

Her most notable work in recent years has been her participation in the social drama The Fool, directed by Yuri Bykov, which was released in 2014. Natalya Surkova played the role of the mayor of a provincial city.

The film "Fool", named "the most evil and ruthless film of 2014", reveals all the ugliness of the bureaucratic machine and human indifference. The film won prizes at the Kinotavr Film Festival, the European Film Festival in Grenoble, the Locarno Film Festival, the Nika Prize, as well as the White Elephant Award from the Guild of Historians of Cinema and Film Critics for Best Supporting Actress (Daria Moroz).

The year for Surkova turned out to be fruitful for successful roles. The actress played the wife of Grigory Rasputin in the TV series "Grigory R.", the heroine Zoya in the melodrama "The Long Way Home". 2015 brought Natalia a participation in the melodramatic comedy "Divorce of her own accord", where the actress played along with Konstantin Yushkevich.

Natalia Surkova herself in 2016 became the best supporting actress for the role of Empress Elizaveta Petrovna in the TV series "The Great". One of the most expensive projects in the history of Russian television and Channel One was released at the end of 2015. Earlier, the viewers of the TV channel "Russia 1" were shown the television film "Ekaterina". The role of Elizaveta Petrovna in it was played by Yulia Aug, who received a similar award a year before Surkova.

It is possible that the choice of the actresses was due to their stunning external similarity. Together, the actresses could star in "The Fool" - the role of the assistant to the mayor, played by Surkova, was offered by Aug. However, after reading the script, Aug recommended not to repeat the image of the mayor, and the director followed her advice.

The actress was married twice. In her first marriage with actor Konstantin Gershov in 1993, her daughter Aglaya was born. The girl followed in the footsteps of her parents and is already a member of the troupe of the St. Petersburg theater on Liteiny. The second husband of Natalya Surkova also became her colleague in the theater workshop, artist Alexei Titkov. In this union, the spouses did not have common children.

Unfortunately, the second union also ended in divorce, and at the moment the actress is not married. She leads a closed lifestyle, engaging exclusively in creativity, Natalia does not have a personal page with a photo on Instagram.

In 2017, Natalya Surkova starred in four projects. The actress appeared in the rating series "Doctor Richter". In the tragicomedy "Frostbite Carp" she played the role of a registry office employee. The main characters - an elderly provincial woman and her son, who works in the capital in a prestigious position - were played by Marina Neyolova and Yevgeny Mironov. Alisa Freindlich also starred in the film.

At the beginning of 2018, the premiere of the fantastic film "The Debtor's Shack" took place, where Natalya Surkova turned into the prosecutor.
