In the sensational cyberpunk of Pavel Sanaev “On the game”, the actor played the gamer Doc. It was for this role that Priluchny made an eloquent DOC tattoo on his neck. Paul is in no hurry to get rid of her, claiming that it contains a lot of subtext. In childhood, the actor was a fighter, at the insistence of his parents he was engaged in boxing, choreography and vocals. And although he did not consider the latter to be "boyish" occupations, he overcame this study, and then entered the theater school. Priluchny has several theatrical roles, but basically the actor realizes his talents on the set.
