In 2006, a series of the Russian production company "Kadetstvo" was released on the screens - a story about the life and training of students of the Suvorov military school. The complex teenage drama took a lot of effort from the cast, but few know the names and fates of the artists who told this exciting story for us.
Kadetstvo is a popular television series with elements of a soap opera and teenage drama. In the center of the story are six young guys who decided to connect their lives with military service, coping with the difficulties and problems usual for their age, living in rather harsh conditions of one of the most prestigious educational institutions in Russia - the Suvorov School. So who starred in the 1st, 2nd and 3rd seasons of the film "Kadetstvo"?
Actors "Kadetstvo", main roles
Alexander Golovin is a young Russian actor with a memorable appearance, who became a star thanks to the series "Kadetstvo". He embodied the image of the Suvorovite Maxim Makarov, a guy from the "golden youth", the son of the city mayor, in love with the teacher Polina. Season 1 is dedicated to this romantic relationship.
Sasha was born in 1989 in Czechoslovakia into the family of a Russian military pilot. From the age of nine he became a model, thanks to the agency of Slava Zaitsev, starred in the famous "Yeralash", in the comedy "Daddy's Daughters", in advertisements, in music videos, in television programs. Golovin successfully performs on the stage of the theater, takes photos for advertising posters, is engaged in road racing and loves football. According to him, working on the TV series "Kadetstvo" is an exciting and invaluable experience in his life. By the way, it was he who voiced his character Maxim in a computer game based on the series.
Pavel Bessonov is an actor from "Kadetstvo" who played the charming, good-natured and naive Suvorov member Stepan Perepechko. A native of the village, he does not understand a lot about modern fashion trends, but he never loses his cheerfulness and loves to eat deliciously. As you know from the film, sincere bumpkin Perepechko had real passions with girls. Other cadets laughed at Stepan's innocence, but respected him for his openness and willingness to help others.
Pavel, born in 1991, was a complete boy from childhood. But he dreamed of becoming a real artist and enrolled in acting classes, where he studied for a year and was able to get on the Mosfilm lists. Just like Golovin, this actor from Kadetstvo began his career in Yeralash and then appeared in several films. Pasha is not at all shy about the peculiarities of his appearance - on the contrary, his charming awkwardness made him a "characteristic" and sought-after actor.
Artur Sopelnik is another of those who starred in cadets, playing the role of the Suvorov soldier "Trofim". He got this nickname because of his last name, but in fact his name is Alexander Trofimov. A light, carefree guy with a poetic soul, he is popular with women and conquers the bosses with his charm. "Trofim" appears in all seasons of the series.
Sopelnik is one of the most promising Russian actors. His photos and the names of his characters are constantly flashed in the press. He was born in 1991 in the German city of Dresden, at school he was actively involved in sports, hockey and martial arts. But one day he realized that he wanted to perform on stage. By that time, his family had moved to Moscow, and the boy was sent to acting courses at the Mel theater. By the time Arthur was invited to play the role of a cadet, he had gained vast experience in theatrical performances. The series "Kadetstvo" became for the actor a pass to the world of cinema.
Aristarkh Venes played Ilya Sukhomlin, a gamer with a good sense of humor, keen on jiu-jitsu. Aristarchus was born in 1989 into an acting family, and his fate was predetermined from childhood. A talented guy knows several languages, is actively involved in sports, graduated from the Yaroslavl Theater Institute. His acting career is developing rapidly - by the beginning of 2019 he had 21 film jobs.
Another actor who played the main role in the series is Kirill Emelyanov. His character is Alyosha Syrnikov, the son of Major Rotmistrov, whom his father raised alone, a rather scandalous character expelled from school for a fight with Ilya Sinitsyn.
Emelyanov was born in Moscow in 1991 in a family of actors, in childhood he took part in the filming of Yeralash, and then entered a school with a theatrical bias, from which (what an irony of fate!) He was expelled for scandalous behavior. However, this did not prevent him from becoming a candidate for the role of Syrnikov in the series, and the hot-tempered guy did not even have to play much in front of the camera. The actor already has 15 movie roles, as well as a divorce from the mother of his two sons, actress Directorenko.
Russian actor Boris Korchevnikov is known to fans of "cadets" for the role of "Tit", Sergeant Ilya Sinitsyn, who was expelled along with Syrnikov. Ilya grew up in a military family, but an obedient soldier did not work out of him - his emotionality constantly gives him problems. Due to his character, he lost his place in the school and his girlfriend.
Korchevnikov was born in 1982, his mother worked at the Moscow Art Theater, and from the first grade the boy began performing on stage. The gifted child worked under the guidance of the famous Tabakov, played in performances with Mironov and Efremov. But he first appeared on the screen as a TV presenter - journalism fascinated him more than acting. He graduated from Moscow State University and became a freelance employee of NTV. And in 2006 he successfully passed the casting for the role in "Kadetstvo". Today Boris is still working in the field of television journalism, preparing author's projects for the channel "Russia 1" and does not associate his future with an acting career.
Other "cadets"
It is worth mentioning two more guys who starred as other pupils of the Suvorov school. These are actor Ivan Dobronravov, who embodied the image of Andrei Levakov, Sinitsyn's best friend, and artist Artem Terekhov, who played Vice Sergeant Kirill Sobolev, who appeared in season 2, the uncompromising leader and main rival of Maxim in the fight for the heart of Margarita Pogodina.
Ivan was born in Voronezh in 1989 in the family of the famous Russian actor Fyodor Dobronravov. He has a dizzying career, the guy works only with the best directors, his name is known all over the world, thanks to the cult film "The Return" of 2003. Ivan is married and has a daughter, Vera.
Artem Terekhov is less known to the viewer. He was born in the winter of 1985 in Zelenograd, graduated from VGIK. He became popular after "Kadetstvo", but after several episodic works he finished acting, opening his own theater studio "Atas".

Elena is not going to end her bright career in cinema, working at the present time.
Another star of "Kadetstvo" is Linda Tabagari, a charming young actress who perfectly played the role of Margarita Pogodina, who appeared in the second season of Sobolev and Makarov's beloved.
The actress has Georgian roots, to which she owes her sonorous surname and exotic appearance. She started out as a model in Zaitsev's studio, showing off children's clothes, and then began appearing in films. At the time of filming in the series, the girl was only 13 years old, but she was able to embody the image of an already adult beauty.
