The series âKremlin cadetsâ became a logical sequel to âKadetstvoâ, which gained immense popularity among Russian viewers. With the completion of the latter in 2007, no one wanted to say goodbye to their favorite characters. Fortunately, many of them migrated to continue. What the series âKremlin Cadetsâ is about, and who played the main roles in it, later in our article.
âThe boys have grown!â
That was exactly the main slogan of the future series. After completing their studies at the Suvorov School, the former cadets move to the Higher Military Command School of Moscow. What are the âKremlin cadetsâ, whose actors again returned to their usual images with virtually no shooting break? Suvorov graduates Ilya Sukhomlin, Stepan Perepechko and Alexei Syrnikov are now junior sergeants. Many viewers who love the series say that the life of sergeants is not much different from the cadets. But this is not so. Significant differences can be found between the series, as in the lives of the heroes.
Friendship against competition
Among the screen characters of the viewer, new faces await. In addition to the former cadets, the school opens the doors for several categories at once: graduates of schools who have not received a special military education, and who have served in the army conscripts called army men. All of them are united in the category "Kremlin cadets". The series shows a key triangle, within which serious passions often begin to develop.
Work on the series
The idea of ââthe series arose among the creators immediately after the completion of "Cadetism". The resounding success that hit the original series of domestic production, said that it was too early to put an end to. Spectators fell in love with teenagers in uniform and wanted to know how their fate would develop further. Not wanting to say goodbye to them, the authors transfer them to Kremlin cadets. Actors remembered for âKadetstvoâ got the opportunity to play in the same frame again. Maxim Makarov, performed by Alexander Golovin, moves to three colleagues from St. Petersburg. Together with him - his wife Polina Sergeevna and her former boyfriend Gleb, who again will bring a bunch of problems. Alexei Syrnikov will soon have to say goodbye: he is awaiting news of a transfer to the Airborne School, which he had dreamed of since the walls of the Suvorov School.
Being in anticipation of a new series, fans puzzled over what new scriptwriters would present, because, it would seem, everything that can be said is already said in âKadetstvoâ. The long-awaited (and at least brief) description could tell about how a new stage in the life of Sukhomlin, Pechka and Syrnikov begins. âKremlin cadetsâ in the pre-premiere television commercials generously shared story milestones. So, it is known that the series begins with the course of a young fighter, on which the main acquaintance of the main characters takes place and at the same time their first differences. The company command goes to the commanders Arthur Gubsky and Vasily Davydov. Only thanks to their strict discipline and special approach to each colleague do the heroes find a common language and deal with the real problems of their cadet life. Meanwhile, each of them is absorbed not only in service. A special place is given to personal life and relationships with the opposite sex.
Finding Top Screen Faces
The creators clearly understood that the plot could not revolve around the three former cadets. The scriptwriters added a number of related minor heroes. To embody so many characters involved, it took a lot of casting to âKremlin Cadetsâ. Actors with pleasure pass tests, feeling success. And do not miscalculate. The series enjoys fame no less than its predecessor, which gives them the opportunity for further career growth.
âKremlin cadetsâ: actors and roles
Turning to those who created the main images on the screen, you should first remember the Suvorovites. Performers of the roles of Sukhomlin, Pechki, Syrnikov and Makarov do not need to be introduced. The audience fell in love with these actors from the first episode of Kadetstvo. After eight years, each of them has a great life and professional experience.
Perhaps the most successful is Alexander Golovin. The actor was born on January 13, 1989 in the Czech Republic, from where he moved to the Russian capital. Before Kadetstvo, the audience remembered the image he created of a desperate fighter, a suicide bomber Cat from the military drama Bastards. After the series, he appeared in several transitional films, including the role of the young teacher Pavel Sergeevich in âDaddy's daughtersâ. Having met on the set with Daria Melnikova, who played one of the Vasnetsovâs sisters - Zhenya, Golovin migrated with her to the family movie âCinderella 4x4â. Together, the actors happily posed for the paparazzi, giving rise to rumors about their romance.

Once again, the Kremlin cadets allowed to try on the soldier's uniform. The series takes the whole plot story to Maxim Makarov and his wife Polina, whose relations were watched by the audience of Kadetstvo. A noticeable role after âCadetsâ was participation in the criminal drama âClose Enemyâ. Having struck up a creative friendship with Golovin, Alexander Atanesyan calls him for the third time - in the comedy âOn Treasonâ. But the most famous remains the role of a snowboarder, safely played in three parts of âElokâ. In 2012, the actor voted immediately for two characters from the animated films âThe Seal of King Solomonâ and âFrom the Screw 3Dâ. Two years later, Golovin played one of the main roles in the comedy âIn Sports Only Girlsâ, in which he had to reincarnate in the fairer sex.
Aristarchus Venes is not inferior to him in popularity . Born October 4, 1989, Aristarchus is the continuer of the family dynasty of actors. For some time he studied at an English school. After moving to Moscow, he began to seriously engage in the profession. Among other hobbies, he calls dancing and playing the violin, karate and football. In addition to the usual image of a serviceman Sukhomlin, spectators know Venes from other works. In 2011, he played in several successful films at once: Odnoklassniki, Piranha, Only Love. In 2014 he appeared in the comedies âSex, Coffee, Cigarettesâ and âCorporateâ, as well as in the youth series âAngelicaâ. In the spring of 2015, a new series with his participation, âThe Law of the Stone Jungleâ, started on TNT channel.
Kirill Emelyanov, like Alexander Golovin, gained audience recognition after the film âBastardsâ, although he began acting in Yeralash. Since childhood, Cyril dreamed of enrolling in a theater university, which turned out to be GITIS. âKremlin cadetsâ brought their share of popularity: they began to recognize the actor despite the fact that the character of Syrnikov played by him turned out to be negative. Emelyanov himself is glad of such an opportunity to show the worst side of character. Since 2010, the actor has been playing on the stage of the School of Contemporary Play theater. There he met Ekaterina Direktorenko. The actress is seven years older than him. Young parents have two sons.
The 2012 drama âBoys from the Eastâ became the most discussed picture not only in the filmography of Cyril. The tape made a lot of noise, and the reason for this is its erotic subtext. Emelyanov was invited to shoot in France. He got the role of 25-year-old Marek, engaged in prostitution. The film itself was awarded the Cesar Prize, and Cyril was called a promising contemporary actor.
Pavel Bessonov, who played the village simpleton Perepechko, is perhaps the only one who cannot boast of professional success. At the age of 24, he starred in only eight films, but devotes much time to his personal life: the actor is married to Zinaida Martynova, who has nothing to do with acting. After âKremlin cadetsâ, Pavel starred in a small role in âUniverâ and the Ukrainian comedy âHousekeeperâ.
Who is in the background?
Creating a project with a wide scope, the creators offer viewers a lot of vivid images. The secondary characters of the series âKremlin cadetsâ also found their niche. The actors and roles of this plan are no less interesting:
- Denis Beresnev. Agreeing to the role of cadet Dmitry Krasilnikov, Denis knew firsthand what military life is: his father is a reserve colonel. Born in Ulyanovsk, where his family lives. The actor is the record holder for the number of admissions to theatrical universities: he auditioned for GITIS, the Moscow Art Theater, the Shchukin Institute and the Shchepkinsky School. The role in âKremlin cadetsâ remains his most famous work.
- Renat Kadyrov. He plays on the stage of the theater "Sphere". For the performance âDays of the Turbinsâ received a nomination for the Golden Leaf Award. Known for the TV series âSoldiersâ, âTravelersâ, âBrothers-4â. In the âKremlin cadetsâ he played the role of army man Sergei Gonchar.

Deserved success and long-awaited sequel
The series was warmly received by the audience. Naturally, there was a comparison with Kadetstvo. Some believed that he largely repeated the military life shown in the Suvorov School. Others believed that a significant difference was evident between the projects, giving the right to talk about a worthy continuation of the âteenageâ series, taking it to a new level and giving the main characters the opportunity to become older.
A lot of rumors go about continuing, which only confirms the success of the series âKremlin cadetsâ. Season 4 has been incredibly discussed in the press and online communities.
