Actor Yuri Makeev is a native Muscovite. He became famous thanks to the role of Mazeev in the film "Soldiers". After a while, the man created his own culinary project "Theater of Taste", where he still works as an art director. Yuri has both acting and culinary education, but often the star is recognized by the films where he took part. Now Makeev is not associated with acting, although in an interview he talked about a possible return to the stage. The culinary project brings much less income according to the actor, however this type of earnings is more interesting for him.
Biography
Actor Yuri Makeev was born in February 1980. After leaving school, the young man entered the Theater Institute, where he studied until 2002. Having received a diploma, Yuri went to serve. According to the artist himself, he was forced to ask for leave days in order to participate in the castings. Constant trials and attempts brought success to the artist, and Makeev got the desired role in the famous film “Deadly Force”. The next significant role of the actor was the work in the movie "Bed Scenes", where Yuri embodied the image of a soldier. It is worth noting that the subject of the army was most interesting for him. Director Kirill Serebrenikov gave the young actor a try. It was this prototype that became a real push for the guy.
A year later, Yuri Makeev was noticed by Declan Donnelan, a director from England, who invited him to play a role in the play “Three Sisters”.
Difficulties of artists
Conducting a conversation about his own profession, the star emphasizes that it is difficult for a novice artist to find a job, because "guests" work in multi-part paintings. As evidence, Yuri added that only six graduates went from the group to the actors, the rest are now working in a completely different field. Makeev also says that he cannot find contact with the theater. In search of a true calling, the man realized that he was a fan of the kitchen, and went into cooking. His duties include setting tables for huge banquets and social events. Yuri Makeev was always of the opinion that working for someone was not for him, and the man decided to open his own culinary business.
Movie work
As it turned out from the actor himself, the role in the film "Soldiers" went to him by chance. At the studio to them. Gorky, where Yura was exclusively on business matters, he met a familiar assistant. The girl decided to show the guy to the director of the picture, and as soon as Arlanov saw Makeev, he immediately took him to one of the main roles, because the image of Yuri is identical to the character. As the actor himself admitted, participation in the filming was rather difficult. Makeev considers the most interesting episode for himself to be the moment connected with the deception about the pregnancy of one of the heroines of the series, where his character nearly killed a doctor. Yuri would have managed to play this scene more movingly and emotionally if it were not for the fuss happening behind the scenes.
In addition to "Soldiers", the actor also starred in the sensational youth television series "Ranetki." Yuri Makeev appeared in the picture as a supporting character. However, for him it was still a good experience and an opportunity to prove himself.
Best role
The best and favorite role of the actor is connected with the series “Sins of the Fathers”. The man believes that the plot is very similar to the play “Romeo and Juliet”, where Yuri himself appears on the screen in the image of a romantic nature. Shooting of the picture continued throughout the year, and Makeev, who gave all his best, hoped that after the release of the film he would be noticed, but this did not happen. After the role in the last series, the offers not only did not increase, but also significantly decreased. It was during this period that there was a real lull for Yuri Makeev. The guy tried to show himself on the samples, but he was refused.
However, the actor is young and he has everything ahead!
