What can we tell about Andrei Myagkov, biography and personal life? Andrew was born on July 8, 1938. Myagkov was born in Leningrad. As the biography of the actor marks, his father was a professor at the Polytechnic Institute. When Andrew was at school, he was very interested in exact sciences, various techniques. Apparently, the talent for this Myagkov received from his father. However, his biography as a person engaged in technology, and did not work out. Life turned to the other side. And the thing was that Andrei became interested in the theater and began to go to the drama club. He was very attracted by such life and roles that he could perform. After that, Andrei had a personal dream - to become an actor. However, initially, he still did not dare to enter the theater. The guy decided to choose the same profession that his father owned and entered the Leningrad Institute of Chemical Technology. After completing his studies, the guy went to work at the Institute of Plastics, and it was here that fate prepared him an excellent gift.
At that time, teachers from the theater school named after Nemirovich-Danchenko decided to go to Leningrad to see if there are talented young people who want and can play in the theater. Myagkov remembered what his personal dream was and decided to go to audition. He expected a lot, but not that teachers will not even listen to him and immediately take him to the school. It really was a happy occasion, a gift of destiny, which you can not refuse. Therefore Myagkov, without a long thought, left the work and went to Moscow. There he graduated from the Moscow Art Theater School-Studio and went to work in the Sovremennik Theater. Surprisingly, Myagkov's theatrical career began almost simultaneously with working in the cinema. He was seen on stage and invited to the first role in his life. He debuted and all noted that the young man is really talented. Then Myagkov was offered to star in the Brothers Karamazov. Honestly, the young actor was very worried, because he had to play with such recognized artists as Ulyanov. Lavrov, Adoskin. However, thanks to his talent, Andrew coped with the role and received praise from the already well-known and beloved by the people of the artists. But, nevertheless, Myagkov always considered himself a theatrical actor. He did not particularly pursue fame, although he was happy with his successful work. By the way, he could have become famous earlier if he had played in the film "The Great Change", but he was not approved for the role. Myagkov was greatly upset about this and returned to the theater to embody his favorite characters on the stage.
This continued until 1975. Eldar Ryazanov at that time, has already created both the play and the script of the film "The Irony of Fate or With Easy Steam!" ". But I just could not find an actor who would ideally approach the main role. Lukashin tried to play many famous and talented artists, but they did not turn out exactly as Ryazanov saw him. Up until the moment when the director's wife, Natalia Koreneva, did not offer Myagkov for this role. They were good friends, and the woman was confident that he would be suitable for this role. When Eldar Ryazanov saw Myagkov in such a role, he no longer doubted that he would never find the best performer of the role of Zhenya Lukashin. Therefore, Myagkov immediately approved and began shooting, which were completed in the summer of 1975. And on New Year's Eve everyone saw the amazing, funny love story of Zhenya Lukashin and Nadia. This film won the hearts of all the inhabitants of the Soviet Union. He was so fond of everything that he was repeated a month after the first show. And this was extremely rare on Soviet television. After that, Myagkov began to learn everything. "The irony of fate" has turned into the film without which no New Year is passing. Thirty-six years have passed, we all know by heart every phrase of the heroes, every dialogue, but still we turn on the TV and watch this movie, because without it, something is missing for the New Year.
Although he himself does not particularly like Myagkov for his popularity because of this film. At first, he could not get used to it at all, and then became angry because he was always associated and associated, in the first place, with Zhenya Lukashin.
But, nevertheless, Myagkov became popular, and Ryazanov began to shoot it in almost all of his paintings. Of course, this is also the "Office Romance", and "Garage" and the beautiful drama "Cruel Romance." All the roles of Myagkov were quite diverse, but he managed to translate them into reality in such a way that everyone believed him. Believed in his love, in experiences, in his tragedy, in everything he talked about on TV screens. People have always loved comedies and other films with this actor.
But, nevertheless, in the end, Myagkov returned to the theater. In the late eighties, he completely withdrew from the cinema and devoted his entire time to playing on stage. During these years, Myagkov managed to play a lot of different roles. He realized that it was the theater life for which he was very close.
On the screen he appeared only in the continuation of the "Irony of Fate". By the way, it was Myagkov who wrote it. More precisely, the original version, which in general is nothing like what we had to see on the screens. And although Myagkov starred in the film, he says that he did not write all this, and the idea was based only on the story - the story of the children of the main characters.
As for Myagkov's private life, he has been happily married to Anastasia Voznesenskaya for many years. They were married back in 1964, and today are considered one of the strongest and most ideal pairs among the actors. So, we can say that Myagkov lives a calm and happy life, plays in the theater, giving joy to his faithful fans.
