Why Sergey Steblov, who showed himself in a variety of theatrical and cinematic roles, suddenly decided to choose the path of a monk, for many of his fans still remains a mystery. But the main thing is that this choice of the only son was understood and accepted by his father - People's Artist of Russia Evgeny Yuryevich Steblov.
The most anticipated
The birth of a desired baby for any family is a huge happiness, a reward, a hope for the continuation of the family. At the same time, the test. For the family of Yevgeny Yuryevich Steblov and his wife Osipova Tatyana Ivanovna, the birth of their son Sergei is more than a test of everyday life, sleepless nights. After all, Tatyana Ivanovna was forbidden by doctors to give birth on cardiological indications.
But contrary to all medical warnings, she really wanted to have children, and this dream became a reality on March 13, 1973. Fortunately, the birth was normal, without complications, but the child was caught a cold in the hospital and Tatyana Ivanovna was not immediately discharged home. Yevgeny Steblov, on the one hand, showed paternal care, and on the other, did not have the proper understanding of what his wife alone had in her arms with a baby.
Already after the death of his wife, the famous actor with deep remorse recalled how, having caught a cold, in order not to infect the baby, he lived for some time with his parents and stayed there because he just wanted to rest. Nevertheless, love and understanding reigned in the family of the Steblevs. The couple lived in fidelity and harmony for 38 years. And in such an atmosphere their son Sergei was brought up.
I must say that Sergei did not cause parents much trouble even at the age that is considered to be transitional. They were able to not spoil their only offspring, and Steblov Sr. with pleasure admitted more than once how warmly all his friends who had a chance to communicate with him and spoke about his son worked. Perhaps all members of this family are characterized by spiritual nobility, directness, honesty.
Probably, without knowing it, the parents and the attention of his son turned to the church. The fact is that Sergei was not baptized in infancy. Perhaps this was due to the period when faith in God was hidden and church attendance was condemned. Although Yevgeny Steblov himself is a deeply religious person. When Sergei was already a teenager, his parents invited him to accept the baptismal ceremony.
Then the son agreed, but of course did not take it as his destiny. You never know who were baptized in the world. Youth was imagined by Sergey in bright colors. He wanted to continue the acting dynasty, and after school he entered the Shchukin school, which he successfully completed in 1994. He studied at the course of Ivanov V.
Talented actor or son of a talented father-actor
It seems that if Sergei did not have acting talent, then he was unlikely to be able to do so much for his short acting and directorial biography. Although some film critics believe that the professional career of Steblov Jr. did not work out. Like that is why he decided to leave worldly life.
The question arises - could dad influence the advancement of his son on this very career ladder? After the end of Schukinki, Sergei really didn’t get into any of the famous Moscow theaters, but played in the Vernissage theater, founded in 1989 by Yuri Nepomnyashchy. It was a stage-exhibition of, so to speak, unrecognized talents, organized according to the idea of the director Nepomniachtchi.
Initially, Vernissage was called the Theater of Unplayed Roles, then the Theater of Unplayed Actors. Yevgeny Steblov’s colleagues in the theater workshop recall that he sometimes complained that his son’s talent was not appreciated. However, he never interfered in the creative process of his quest for himself.
In "Vernissage" in 1995, Sergei got the main role in the play "Aliens. And three years earlier, Sergei Steblov created a touching image of Bones in the film" Eyes ". And the audience remembered this sweet, charming young man for a long time. His filmography can not be called poor. 1998, two films were released with his participation: "The Siberian Barber" and "On the Knives".
Yes, in the first picture this is a supporting role, and in the second episodic. However, the actor does not stop there, but is educated as a director and in 1999 he shot the short film "Werewolf" in that capacity. In 2003, Sergey Steblov proved to be the creator of documentary films (Silver and Mobile).
In 2004-2005 he worked as a second director in the creation of the films “Four taxi drivers and a dog, ” “A Place in the Sun, ” and “The Seagull.” For some time I was gaining experience with Nikita Mikhalkov in the TriTe studio and at the same time tried to shoot commercials. He created his own center "Stem-film". No matter how captivated the direction, acting work took place to be in these years.
Sergey Steblov starred in the series "Lyubov.ru" (2000), "Detectives of a regional scale", where he played the role of Zhogin. There were roles in the films "Sentence", "I Know How to Be Happy." It is worth noting that the last three paintings relate to 2008. In 2009, another multi-part picture was released with the participation of Steblov Jr. - "And there was a war."
