Alexander Pashkov is an Ural actor who, like most artists, moved to Moscow and began his career.
Before starting a career
Alexander Pashkov was born on November 15, 1979 in the city of Yekaterinburg. The future artist was born into a family of police officers. His older brother followed in the footsteps of his ancestors. After graduating from college, my brother went to work in the organs. The only Alexander dreamed of becoming an actor.
In the 1990s, perestroika began in the country, and Pashkov's childhood fell on difficult years. To feed the family, my father had to additionally get a job as a driver at the sanitary and epidemiological station. In addition to her main job, the mother also got a job as a cleaner in the Ministry of Internal Affairs department. Alexander Pashkov asked his parents to send him to a school with a theatrical bias, and they, despite their financial situation, still sent their son to study.
The youngest son also began to earn money - he sold printed publications on trains and electric trains. At school, the future actor achieved success - he learned to dance well and comprehended the basics of acting. From the age of 9, he already appeared on stage at the Academic Theater, at the age of 14 he became a full-fledged actor in this theater.
In the last grade, parents are asked to follow in their footsteps and become a milliard, but Pashkov refuses and leaves Yekaterinburg, arriving in the capital. Having failed the last round of exams, he returned to the Urals and entered the Yekaterinburg State Theater Institute in order to get an education. Works again at the Academic Theater.
Realizing that it is unrealistic to build a career in the provinces, Alexander collects the last money and again leaves for the capital, where his friend and director Alexander Meleshko already lives.
Carier start
Long roles were not given to Pashkov. Only rarely did he appear on the screen, playing minor characters. This did not bring much money, and the actor had to earn extra money as a loader and a courier.
After small roles, Alexander played an important role in the TV series "Ondine 2: On the Crest of a Wave". By chance. Coming to the casting for another small role, he made a mistake in his office and came to the casting of the future series "Undine 2: On the Crest of the Wave". I am sure that he came right, he insisted on reviewing his own candidacy. Later he was given the role of Dmitry. Only after the casting did he realize that he was mistaken in the office …
Further, his career went up rapidly. He was invited to new auditions, and already now he plays in such films as "Ghosts of the Past", "Crossroads of Destiny", "The Ministry" and so on.
