The beginning of life

Mikhail Filippov was born on August 15, 1947 in Moscow. After graduating from school, the young man entered the philological faculty of Moscow State University. During the years of study, he played in the student studio "Our House". Having established himself in the idea that his destiny was the stage, after the fourth year Mikhail moved to GITIS, which he then successfully graduated in 1973.

Theater

Since 1973, Mikhail Filippov has been an actor at the Moscow Mayakovsky Theater. During this time, he played many diverse roles: Abel Znorko "Mysterious Variations"), Krugosvetlov ("The Fruits of Enlightenment"), Napoleon ("Napoleon the First"), Kharchenko ("Rout"), Sancho Panza ("The Man from La Mancha") , Apothecary ("Venceremos!"), De Quadra ("Long live the queen, vivat!"), Leva Arzumanov ("Efficiency of obsession"), Korzukhin ("Running"), Investigator ("Lady Macbeth of the Mtsensk district"), Gooper ( “Cat on a Hot Roof”), Robert (“Look who came!”), Mchislavsky (“Rumor”), Mintou (“Victoria? ..”) and others. Among them are the main characters and supporting roles, and in each of them the actor is always organic, convincing.

Possessing a truly hypnotic ability, he literally captivates the audience with his game. One of the best works of the actor is the role of Kochkarev in the play "Zhanitba", staged on the stage of the Theater on Pokrovka. For her, Mikhail Ivanovich was awarded the State Prize of the Russian Federation.

Movie

Mikhail Filippov made his film debut in 1975 with the role of Mr. Fouquet in Sergei Gerasimov's Red and Black. However, further the romance with cinema somehow did not work out, and only theatergoers could see the talent of the actor. From time to time, films-performances with his participation appeared on the screens: “Interview in Buenos Aires”, “Odessa stories of Isaac Babel”.

Filmmakers "saw" the actor already in adulthood. At the turn of the 80s and 90s, he played such roles as: Gruzdev in the comedy "The Artist from Gribov", Mark Grigorievich in the film "Women Who Are Lucky", Vasya in the famous tragicomedy "Promised Heaven", Pyotr Chaadaev in the drama "The Case of Sukhovo-Kobylin". In the late 90s, the actor took part in two highly-rated TV series: “Decoupling of Petersburg Secrets” (Moronshark Mordenko) and “D.D.D. Dossier of detective Dubrovsky "(Vitaly Avdeevich Irinarkhov).

The talent of the actor is also in demand by the new Russian cinema. In the comedy directed by Dmitry Tomashpolsky "Jisai" (2004), Mikhail Filippov brilliantly played the main role - businessman Dudypin. The hero of the film, having learned about the ancient Japanese traditions, decides to get himself a jisai, i.e. "sacrificial scapegoat" (Alexander Lykov), on whom all the troubles and illnesses intended for the owner will fall. The Filippov-Lykov duet in this picture is simply incomparable.

Among other works of the actor: Alferov in the TV series "Children of the Arbat", Metropolitan Macarius in the historical drama "Ivan the Terrible", Major General Rostislav Batorsky in the drama "The Crimson Color of the Snowfall".

Personal life

The first wife of Mikhail Ivanovich was Irina Yuryevna Andropova, daughter of the formidable head of the KGB and the future General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU, Yuri Vladimirovich Andropov. In this marriage, the son Dmitry was born.

For the second time, Mikhail Ivanovich tied the knot with the famous actress Natalia Gundareva. Natalya Georgievna spoke about her husband: “Misha came to the theater and made friends with my former classmate at the theater school. Thus, we ended up in the same company. They were friends, arranged jokes, jokes. By the way, my husband is a man of amazing humor. He knows a lot about a good joke. God did not give me such wit, and I was basically just a performer. But I liked being a part of it all. Then we worked so well together in the theater that we understood: we need to live together ... ”It so happened that Natalya Georgievna and Mikhail Ivanovich did not have common children, but, nevertheless, their marriage was very happy.

In 2005, Natalya Gundareva passed away. Mikhail Ivanovich endured this tragedy very hard, he even lay in intensive care. However, life goes on, and four years later, happiness smiled at him again. In 2009, Mikhail Ivanovich registered a relationship with the 41-year-old actress of his theater, the charming Natalya Vasilyeva, for whom this marriage was the first.

"We went bankrupt with you, Mordenko." This phrase was repeated many times to the hero of the television series "Petersburg Secrets", the usurer Osip Mordenko, who was brilliantly embodied on the screen by Mikhail Filippov, his parrot. The character was quite extraordinary - both a victim and an executioner to his offenders. Once he was made to suffer because he dared to love a woman not of his circle. From that moment on, his love turned into hatred and a desire for revenge. All feelings from this moment are fastened with large buttons. And he is so thirsty for just revenge that he does not even feel paternal feelings for his only son.

First steps

People's Artist of Russia Mikhail Filippov was born in the capital of the Soviet Union - Moscow - on a warm August 15th day in 1947.

At school, he studied pretty well, and after receiving a certificate, the young man enters the Faculty of Philology at Moscow State University. During his studies, he plays in the student studio "Our House". The same theater became a creative home for Khazanov, Arkanov, Filippenko, Farada and many other movie and theater stars. Now he is so sure that his fate for life is the stage that, after studying for four years at the university, Misha is transferred to GITIS. In 1973, he received a diploma from this particular educational institution.

Our whole life is a theater

Mikhail Filippov is an amazingly talented actor with a peculiar and very bright personality. Since he is a philologist by his first profession, he feels and understands the nature of each word spoken on stage quite subtly. In his three decades of ministry, he didn't have many leading roles. But even the roles of a secondary plan and significance were embodied by him in such a way that they sometimes became more interesting than the main ones.

Yes, Mikhail Filippov, unfortunately, did not play many roles that seemed to have been intended for him by heaven, with an artist of enormous originality. His theatrical fate was not particularly stellar. The path was long and laborious. But Mikhail Ivanovich overcame all obstacles with incredible strength of patience and great self-esteem. Many years passed before Mikhail Filippov, whose biography is re-read by his contemporaries countless times, received the main role of Napoleon in his creative biography (the play "Napoleon the First").

From Fouquet to Irinarkhov

The first cinematic role played by Mikhail Filippov was in Sergei Gerasimov's film "Red and Black", very famous and beloved by viewers. The debut was more than successful. But for some reason, relations with cinema suffered some setback. Now, with his talent, he could bestow only theatergoers. Only occasionally did films-performances in which he played appear on the wide screen.

Everything changed when the actor was already in adulthood. It was then that he was able to embody in front of the cameras many interesting and beloved by the audience characters, whose characters, mood, social status and education were very different. During the period of the late 80s and early 90s, he was invited to many films that became classics of Soviet cinema: Gruzdev in The Artist from Gribov, Chaadaev in The Sukhovo-Kobylin Case, Vasya in the tragicomedy Promised Heaven, Konstantin Sergeevich in Alphonse, investigator Matyukhin in The Serpent Spring, Garansky in The Dashing Couple.

And in the film of whatever genre Mikhail Filippov played, the actor each time gave the character a piece of his soul. He has a very beautiful, wonderfully delivered voice, with the intonations of which he easily brings the audience (if it is a theater) or the audience at the TV screens into a feeling of delight and admiration. Possessing beautiful burning eyes that simply attract attention, he can easily fascinate those around him on both sides of the blue screens.

New, modern filmmakers also liked his talent. One of the interesting roles in the comedy "Jisai", where Mikhail Filippov, whose biography has always aroused interest among fans, reincarnated as businessman Dudypin. Without a doubt, the picture was a success, especially if you remember that Filippov's partner was Alexander Lykov.

Another bright spot in the filmography of the actor was two of the most interesting roles in the series of the late nineties - Vitaly Irinarkhov from D.D.D. Dossier of Detective Dubrovsky" and moneylender Osip Mordenko from "Petersburg Secrets". After the release on the wide screen, the popularity of both the actors and the series themselves simply went through the roof, and the ratings rose to an almost unattainable height.

Unceremonious curiosity

Incidents happen in the acting life, because of which even the huge creative success and adoration of the audience of the whole country are not a guarantee of happiness in family life and the only marriage union. A great rarity in the acting environment (and not only here) are people who created a family in their youth, remaining together until gray hair. Now, few people can be surprised by divorces (sometimes quite loud and heavy) between people who are related to creative professions.

This is exactly what happened to our hero. Both the divorce and the death of his wife survived Mikhail Filippov. The personal life of the actor, despite his venerable age, is the object of attention and interest of both admirers of his talent and idle inhabitants.

Love, families, children

Behind this somewhat ponderous and even slightly formidable man with amazing eyes are three marriages.

He created his first family with the daughter of the then General Secretary, Irina Andropova. The relationship of the spouses was far from perfect, so the couple broke up immediately after the death of Yuri Andropov.

After some time, Mikhail Filippov married the actress of his theater, Natalya Georgievna Gundareva. In this union there was everything one can only dream of: love and tenderness, trust and respect, devotion and mutual understanding. They lived together for 19 happy years. Unfortunately, the illness and death of Natalya Georgievna completed this beautiful fairy tale.

"Natasha"

One of the most beautiful women in Soviet cinema was ill for several years, and all this time her husband did not leave her, trying to help in every possible way, protecting her peace from too curious people and impudent journalists.

Two years after her departure, Mikhail Ivanovich published a book called "Natasha" about the main woman in his life - his deceased wife. It was a kind of book of memories and impressions about their family life, which included Natalia's drawings, Mikhail's poems, their notes about love for each other.

Waiting for a miracle

For four whole years, the actor remained an inconsolable widower. But, in the end, the pain subsided a little, let go. He was lucky: he met his soul mate. Despite the fact that Mikhail Filippov, whose photo can often be seen on the pages of tabloid publications, was twenty years older than the chosen one (she is the theater artist Natalya Vasilyeva), the wedding took place. Their colleagues said that Natasha had a feeling for her future husband back in 1993, when she joined the troupe. At that time, no one could have imagined that trouble would break out in a few years. Therefore, the girl admired Mikhail only from a distance, not hoping for anything. It was said that it was precisely because of this feeling of love that she did not marry until the age of 40, rejecting all the proposals of men in love with her.

Not young but loved

Mikhail learned about the feelings of his future third wife only after the death of the second. Slowly, he began to pay attention to her. There was no long courtship, just a quiet painting. The only condition for Natalia was the wedding, because the issues of faith were of tremendous importance to her.

Love and understanding reign in this family. Since the spouses are no longer twenty, there are no special passions, but their relationship is very reverent. Natalya often pampers her husband with pastries, for which he has a special weakness. And Michael always protects his young wife.

The only sad moment in their union was the question of joint children. “This worries me very much,” Mikhail Filippov once shared. The actor became a father (he has a son), being in his first marriage, Mikhail is now a grandfather. There were no children in the second marriage. For several years, there were reports in the press about Natalya's pregnancy, but one day she could not bear the child, and all the other articles were "ducks". Whether they will be able to realize their dream is still unknown, in any case, no information has appeared in the print media. It remains only to wish them health, happiness and good luck.

Mikhail Filippov realized as a child that the stage was his calling. And although after graduating from school he went to study philology, fate still returned him to the creative path. Now Filippov is one of those artists who manage to harmoniously combine work on the set and in the theater.

Childhood and youth

Mikhail Filippov was born on August 15, 1947. The actor admits that since childhood he dreamed of working in the theater, however, not in the usual, but in the puppet theater. However, after graduating from school, the young man did not apply to the theater, but entered the Faculty of Philology at Moscow State University.

Mikhail Filippov

Classes were held in a building located on Mokhovaya Street. Here, right across the road, there was the House of Culture of the Humanities Faculties, in which two theaters coexisted side by side. The first, student, led; at the helm of the second theater, the Nash Dom studio, were Ilya Rutberg and Albert Axelrod.

Filippov's classmates, who worked as costume designers at Our House, persuaded the young man to go to the audition. He successfully passed the entrance examinations and found himself in the circle of young talents. Many of them later became national favorites. , - these are just a few people from the walls of this studio.

Rehearsals and performances completely captured Mikhail, and not only him - the participants of "Our House" went home on the last train, and the next day after work or school they were in a hurry to be again in the circle of like-minded people. Happiness lasted until 1969, when the studio was closed due to performances and satirical evenings that thundered throughout Moscow. From harmless student skits, the productions of "Our House" gradually turned into something more acute and topical, and they preferred to abolish the theater.

At that time, Filippov was in his 4th year of philology. He no longer imagined life without a stage, so he went to GITIS for the next admissions campaign. The young man was lucky: he was accepted immediately to the second year. In 1973, the young artist graduated with honors and immediately got into the troupe of the Moscow Theater. .

Movies

In 1975, Mikhail first appeared on the set. The debut in a big movie was the role of Fouquet in the film adaptation of the novel "Red and Black". They became partners of the young actor - in a word, the artist starting his career had someone to learn from.

Unfortunately, after the first appearance on the screen, Filippov “fell out of the cage” for a long time, in subsequent years he was filmed only in films, performances and short films. The theatrical career was also difficult - the artist received his first significant role only in 1992 - it was work in the play "Napoleon the First".

In the 80s, Mikhail starred in only a few films, such as "The Artist from Gribov", "Women Who Are Lucky", "The Trial". But in the last decade of the 20th century, a lot of work fell upon Filippov. The creative biography of the actor was replenished with roles in the Sukhovo-Kobylin Case, Count Panin in the historical film Russian Revolt.

The artist remained in demand even in the "zero". Among the notable projects with his participation are the series "Salome", "Children of the Arbat". Also, his filmography was replenished with the paintings "Jisai", "Crimson Snowfall", "Spy" and many others.

Filippov is the owner of a number of awards and prizes. They are mainly theatrical - "Three Sisters" (1999), "Crystal Turandot" (2010), the International Prize. Stanislavsky (2011), Live Theater (2013). Also in 2013, he was awarded the Order of Merit for the Fatherland, IV degree. In 1984, Mikhail was awarded the title of Honored Artist of the RSFSR. Since 1996, Filippov has been a People's Artist of Russia.

Personal life

The first chosen one of the actor was Irina Andropova, whose father was the General Secretary of the Central Committee of the CPSU. They had a son with Filippov, who was named Dmitry. However, his appearance did not save the marriage - the relationship of the spouses rapidly deteriorated and eventually ended in divorce.

In 1986, Mikhail married an actress. They met at the theater. Mayakovsky, and at first the colleagues were connected only by friendship, but then they realized that they needed to live together. The marriage turned out to be strong: Filippov and Gundareva lived together for 19 happy years. They were separated by the death of Natalya Georgievna.

In 2007, the artist released a book of memoirs "Natasha". It tells the story of their relationship, full of love and light sadness. The narrative is accompanied by photos and drawings, notes, poems, the author of which is Gundareva's husband himself.

The couple never had their children, but in the book Filippov mentioned Irina Degteva, a longtime fan of Natalya, who did a lot for the spouses and partly replaced their daughter.

The third wife of Filippov was the actress of the theater. Mayakovsky Natalya Vasilyeva. Despite the difference in the age of the spouses (Natalya is two decades younger than her husband), warmth and mutual understanding reign in the family. Several times the press was "exploded" by the news that Mikhail Ivanovich would become a father again, but these rumors turned out to be false.

Mikhail Filippov now

The actor continues to play in films and on the theater stage. Currently, at least one series with his participation called "Tell the Truth" is in production. This is a Russian adaptation of the British project Doctor Foster (2015). In the center of the plot is the story of a woman who, once suspecting her husband of treason, gradually becomes obsessed with this idea.

In search of evidence of her husband's infidelity, she, without noticing it, destroys her career and relationships with loved ones. In addition to Filippov, they are filming in the series,. “Tell the Truth” will hit the screens in 2019.

Michael's personal life is going well. He lives in Moscow with his wife Natalya. Spouses work in the theater. Mayakovsky, however, they have not yet had a chance to play with each other in one performance.
