Ivan Jankowski: biography and filmography (photo)

Being a child of famous parents is hard enough. No matter what you do, whatever you learn, you are doubly responsible for everything. And, first of all, in art. Agree, with the children of famous actors who decided to follow in the footsteps of their parents, the demand is always greater than with their colleagues who came to the art world on their own. Maria Mironova, Elizaveta Boyarskaya, Maria Mashkova, Viktor Dobronravov, Maria Shukshina and many others have already proved right to proudly wear a famous name. Several years ago Ivan Jankowski joined the list, continuing the genus of a talented family. His debut appearance on the screen occurred in 2000 in the movie "Come to see me". However, the second and, to date, the last picture with his participation - a mystical film called "Indigo" - made him popular.

A talented family - talented children

On the penultimate October day of 1990, the future actor Ivan Yankovsky was born in the capital of the then existing Soviet Union. He was born in a family familiar with cinema art not by hearsay. His grandfather - the famous and talented Oleg Yankovsky - was the first who glorified his name to the whole of the USSR. Grandmother of the boy - Lyudmila Zorina - Honored Artist of the Russian Federation. Pope Ivan is a popular and talented director and actor Philip Jankowski. The boy's mother, Oksana Fandera, is no less well known than his father. This amazing actress starred in many films, and her fame is well deserved. In addition to his son, the couple also has a daughter, Lisa, who was born in 1993.

Ivan Jankowski, whose biography had originated for his subsequent development in such a talented family, decided not to look for complicated ways and follow in the footsteps of his relatives. Such a decision did not surprise anyone.

First appearance on the screen

Already at the age of ten, Ivan Yankovsky first debuted on the screen in the movie "Come to see me". The director of this masterpiece was the grandfather of young talent Oleg Yankovsky and Mikhail Agranovich. The plot of the film is the following. On New Year's Eve, a stranger knocks at the door of a middle-aged woman living with a sick mother. This random meeting overturns the world of all the heroes and proves that love still exists. Irina Kupchenko and Oleg Yankovsky, performing the main roles in this film, were an amazing creative duo. It's no wonder that their game can be watched in one breath.

The role of the angel in this picture was played by Ivan Yankovsky. The filmography of the ten-year-old boy was replenished with the first recording. And critics called this film a kind, soft and unobtrusive work, filled with warmth and love. In principle, this picture was an excellent start for the development of the professional career of the young actor of the Yankovsky family - Ivan. And he successfully coped with his, albeit episodic, role.

Trying on the image of an indigo teenager

A year before the end of the Moscow International School of Cinematography, Ivan Yankovsky for the second time appeared on the screen. It was the year 2008. This time the young talent got the main role in the painting by Roman Prygunov "Indigo". It is remarkable that with this maestro Ivan is familiar from the youngest years. Roman is a close friend of his father. Once they went through the "granite walls" of science together.

One day, Prygunov brought Ivan the script of the film with the words: "Read if you like, then come to the tests." The young man was fascinated by the story of children, who practically did not differ from their peers. The only thing that distinguishes them from the crowd is amazing abilities. Such children, endowed with super powers, are called "indigo". This was the name of the film.

The role and plot of the mystical picture

Ivan came to the test, and he was confirmed for the role of Andrew - a boy who had the opportunity to foresee events. As the actor himself admits, he was interested in playing a teenager who is endowed with superpower. At the same time, according to the scenario of the film, the not quite ordinary life of indigo children was under constant threat: they are pursued by a maniac.

It is noteworthy that in this film there is also a bright romantic line, which was attended by Anastasia Richie and Ivan Yankovsky. The heroine of a girl named Tatiana has the ability to talk with animals.

In addition to young and talented new-found actors, Maria Shukshina, Oleg Efremov, Artem Tkachenko, Gosha Kutsenko and others took part in the film. This picture brought Ivan Jankowski first love and first fans. It was thanks to this tape that the name of the young man was recognized in the territory of the CIS.

Going into the skill of acting

Until 2009, Ivan Yankovsky studied at the International Film School named after Nikita Mikhalkov and Rustam Ibragimbekov, having chosen the faculty of directing. Then, after graduation, he enters the State Institute of Theatrical Art (GITIS), which was formerly known as the Russian Academy of Theater Arts (RATI). The young man chooses the acting and directing faculty. After the first role, his views shifted slightly towards participation in films, and not in their productions. As the actor himself notes, at this stage he is more interested in the game, the mastery of the process of "fitting" and getting into the image, learning the deep processes of the art of acting. Ivan Jankowski wants to learn this from the inside, from the position of the artist.

At the institute, his curator is the famous Russian director, the head and founder of the Theater for Theater Arts - Sergei Vasilievich Zhenovach.

New projects: active work

To date, the filmography of a young artist has only two full-fledged pictures. However, Ivan did not become an actor of "one role". Today he is involved in two projects. The first film entitled "Love with an accent and without: Once Upon a Time in Armenia" will be released in 2015. Ivan got the main male role. His partner on the set is Anna Chipovskaya.

In parallel, the young man is involved in the filming of the picture "The Rag Union", directed by Mikhail Mestetsky. The output of this tape on the screen, as well as the previous creation, is planned in 2015. Critics are eagerly awaiting the appearance of these films, in order to assess the talent of the newly-made actor.
