Oleg Fomin is a Soviet and Russian actor, director and producer of theater, film and television. He is better known to a wide audience for his main characters in such film projects as "My name is Arlecchino", "Fan-2" and "Fighters". He also directed Next, Young Wolfhound and Election Day. Currently, fans want to know not only the details from the personal life of their idol, but also his financial condition.
Today, not so much the ephemeral concept of "audience sympathy" speaks about the demand for theater and cinema workers, but rather professional qualifications, which are completely determined by a commercial parameter. And the income of artists depends to a large extent on the theatrical, cinematic and television projects in which they take part. After all, work at concerts and corporate celebrations cannot be considered decisive for real specialists in this field.
short biography
On May 21, 1962, in Tambov, the future idol of millions of fans was born into a family of technical intelligentsia. However, despite the nature of their professional activities, the parents devoted a lot of time to creativity. My father painted picturesque pictures, and my mother arranged skits, in which she sang and danced beautifully.
The parents oriented their son's versatile development towards classical literature and boxing. Moreover, they saw the future of their adored child exclusively in the architectural direction. However, school amateur performances became a key indicator in the formation of Oleg's own views on his adult specialization.
After receiving a certificate of secondary education, Fomin goes to the capital of our Motherland, where he easily enters the legendary "Sliver", where on the course with Yu. Solomin he receives an acting education. Moreover, the provincial boy received an invitation to himself from many theatrical universities in Moscow, where he sent his documents. And in 1983, when he received the coveted diploma, his professional career was developed in the Riga Youth Theater.
Here he successfully acted until the collapse of the Soviet Union, when the republican theater for young spectators was closed due to the disconnection of the Baltic states. Having lost his job and citizenship overnight, the actor had to return to his small homeland in Tambov, where it was necessary to restore state ownership and find a job. This was followed by the conquest of Moscow.
During this difficult period for the creative environment and the country, Oleg Fomin decided to reorient himself to directing. And in this role, he seriously enough succeeded, taking up not only filming films, but also staging theatrical projects. In this regard, we can separately note his work as a stage director, when Armen Dzhigarkhanyan and Tatyana Vasilyeva starred on the stage in "Cave People", as well as the production of "Nina", where Dmitry Kharatyan acted.
Personal life
Oleg Fomin's family archives contain information about four of his marriages. The first wife of the famous actor and director was Alice, who worked as a costume designer at that time. This woman, even after the breakup, always remembered living together with him exclusively in enthusiastic tones.
The second time Oleg Fomin made a trip to the registry office in the company of Alena. This marriage was short-lived. However, Danil's son was born in him.
The next wife was the actress Maria Balym. And at the time of meeting the girl was only 17 years old. The absence of children in this marriage and the 26-year age difference of the couple became the reason for divorce in this case.
According to Oleg Fomin himself, he could experience real family happiness only at the age of 52, when he became the spouse of Tatyana, who worked as a television and radio host. This native of Zaporozhye, after a modest wedding in Moscow, took into account the wishes of her husband and began to study to be an anti-crisis manager.
Oleg Fomin today
It is quite obvious that the level of an artist's income mainly depends on the number of theatrical, cinematographic and television projects with their participation. In this regard, I would like to note the latest directorial and acting work of Oleg Fomin.
In 2016, the detective series "The Penalty" was released, which he not only filmed on his own, but also used as an actor's film work. The role of the head of the KGB department, Peniker, in this case, although not the main one, was played brilliantly.
The dynamic plot of this crime drama is based on the courageous and thoughtful actions of a captain demobilized after the war, who found himself in a difficult situation. A soldier who tried to neutralize the offender himself falls under the suspicion of the investigating authorities. And in order to justify himself, he will have to infiltrate the bandit group and eliminate the leader on his own.
In the same year, the actor starred in the domestic blockbuster "The Crew", where he had to act in the guise of a member of the selection committee. Fomin did an excellent job with this secondary role, once again confirming his professional suitability.
The military drama "The Commissar" (2017) became for Oleg Fomin the film project in which he played the main male role. An exciting plot is based on the confrontation between a mother and a son, who, by the will of fate, found themselves on opposite sides of justice in a small town after the war. And then there was a film work in the sports drama "Oborony Avenue" (2017).
In 2018, the popular actor expanded his filmography with a film work in the adventure drama Pain Threshold. It tells about a company of young people who find themselves in an extreme situation in Gorny Altai, where their human qualities and friendly relations are seriously tested.
In 2019, a series was released on the screens of the country, which replenished the professional portfolio of a popular artist with another successful directorial work. In Alien Life, he also starred as an actor. So this picture, which tells about a difficult period in the life of the heroes from 1939 to 1955, became for Oleg Fomin another successful film project.
