Despite the huge success of the series “Two Fates”, it cannot be said about Ekaterina Semenova that she is an actress of the same role. In the film industry, it is popular and in demand to this day. In addition, Melpomene fans can see the reincarnation of the artist on the stage of the theater.
Childhood and youth
Ekaterina Tengizovna Semenova was born on April 18, 1971. It is a native of a small urban village of Monino, in the Moscow region. Nevertheless, her parents at that time were famous cultural figures: they devoted their whole life to cinema. Little Katya was the only child in the family.
Looking at her parents, the girl from childhood dreamed of a career in the cinema. And the parents, of course, were not at all against it. Thus, from the age of 11, Katya became a student in a theater studio. And after 6 years, she, without a doubt, entered the famous Moscow Art Theater School.
And everything seemed to be working out the best way possible - the girl successfully passed all the selection tests. But the barrier to admission was an unsatisfactory grade in the school diploma in algebra. The situation was aggravated by the reluctance of the commission to give young Semenova another attempt to retake the exam in the ill-fated subject. And here the well-known parents of the girl intervened. They were able to achieve justice, and after passing the second exam, Catherine received the "troika", which opened the doors to the theater university in front of her.
Theater and movie career
The talent of the actress noticed, unfortunately, not immediately. Only in the second year did the directors of the capital's theaters begin to follow her. Thus, in 1990, the aspiring actress made her debut on the stage in a play called "Undine", where she got the main role. In the same year, she began playing at the Sovremennik Theater in the production of Three Sisters.
It is worth noting that filmmakers noticed the girl before their theatrical colleagues. Even before entering the university at the age of 16, she made her film debut. Her first screen appearance took place in the film "Men's Portraits." Even while studying, Catherine often starred in films. From the moment of her admission to the higher education, Semenova managed to play in 6 film and television projects. She became famous thanks to her work in the movie "Predators" and the television series "Goryachev and Others." In 1992, she graduated from high school, but continues to appear in images on the stage, leaving the cinema for several years.
In 1999, she returned to the screens. The status of the "famous actress" returned to her thanks to her role in the rating domestic television series "Two Fates". After this success, the career of the artist again went uphill.
The filmography of the actress has more than fifty television and film works.
