Alexey Uchitel, Sergey Bezrukov and Anna Mathison on the set of the Plevako series Director and producer Alexei Uchitel recently revealed a terrible secret about the choice of an actor for the role of the famous lawyer Fyodor Plevako in the series of the same name: Vladimir Mashkov really wanted to play Plevako. But he was passed around the corner.
According to Alexei, at the forum in St. Petersburg, they, together with Vladimir, presented the future series, with him in the title role. All the lawyers, lawyers who were at the event then enthusiastically accepted the project. But as a result, the role of Plevako is played by another artist – Sergey Bezrukov.
The teacher did not shoot Plevako himself, but gave the film to director Anna Mathison. And she insisted that her husband, Bezrukov, play the lawyer.
– Sergei played a lot of things. I think that in the role of Plevako he will be different. He obeys the director in everything, obeys her, ”said Alexei Efimovich in an interview with the Vokrug TV portal.
Recall that Bezrukov is 10 years younger than Mashkov. Perhaps this fact played a decisive role. In the series Plevako, a lot of space is occupied by the stormy personal life of a lawyer, for example, his passion for Maria Demidova, the wife of that same rich man Demidov. She is played by 35-year-old Olga Lerman, who looks 25 at all.
Vladimir Mashkov really looks like Fedor Plevako. Even makeup wouldn’t take long to apply. The same heavy eyelids, slanting eyes, a nose with large wings, a powerful forehead, a heavy look. But the director chose to deal with her submissive husband, and not with the obstinate Mashkov.
They say that Vladimir Lvovich was deeply offended by a couple of colleagues. He hates when personal relationships and family ties interfere with creativity. He himself never helped his daughter – Maria Mashkova. He also drove out of the Snuffbox Theater, which he headed after the death of Oleg Tabakov, his son Pavel, who from the cradle enjoyed the high position of his father. Yes, and Mashkov has a strained relationship with Bezrukov. Although both are students of Oleg Pavlovich.

Mashkov himself asked for the role for the second time in his life. And for the first time I got rejected. Sergei Ursulyak does not hide the fact that another artist claimed the role of David Gotsman in “Liquidation”, and Vladimir in all respects did not really fit the image of the deputy head of the Odessa Criminal Investigation Department, but the artist managed to convince that he was Gotsman, period!
Bezrukov brightly plays the famous court speaker and lawyer
At one time, Vladimir helped Alexei Uchitel a lot. From the obviously failed script of Alexander Gonorovsky, which was literally rewritten a hundred times, to make a spectacular movie “The Edge”. He helped not only Alexei Efimovich, but also a young partner, Yulia Peresild, who at that time was the mistress of a married Teacher. Aleksey Efimovich also recalled that help in an interview with Vokrug TV:
– I asked Volodya, if possible, to come to auditions, to play along with the artists. There was a test for the main female role. Volodya came – shaved bald. Although the filming was still three months away. I asked: “Why?” He replied, “I’m already in character.” And so he came to all the tests and helped everyone.
