About your character:
"In the film" Spy Bridge "I fulfill the role of Ivan Shishkin. This is a person who comes to the Dovanov lawyer, the hero of Tom Hanks, for negotiations on the exchange of the Soviet spy on the American. My character is hard and cunning. But at the same time he is not a villain, not comic. I also said Stephen Spielberg: I really like that this is some kind of caricature, not Ivan-Fool, but a worthy person who knows how to defend his interests, the interests of his country. "
About preparation for the role:
"I know something about that time. But a lot of spillberg himself told me. The son of the main character is very similar to Stephen himself, which in those days was already a teenager. For example, an episode with a panic in America, after the Russians launched the satellite. No one knew what satellite is what he will do. People were afraid of bombing and irradiation.
And the son of Donovan is gaining water in a bucket, in the bath; After all, if they are bombing, there will be no electricity or water. Information is not just dates and events, but also sensual experiences. So the main source of facts about that time for me was Stephen, who told many stories about himself and his parents. "
The plot of the film unfolds during the Cold War. Mikhail Gorheva plays an officer of the KGB, who is negotiating with an American lawyer (Tom Hanks) on the exchange of the Soviet intelligence officer of Rudolf Abel at Francis Gary Powers pilot

About Tome Hanks:
"I've got acquainted with Tom, he says to me:" Listen, an old man, we have a very heavy scene tomorrow. I still know all the text, come on, maybe they grind. " I answer: "Do you tell me? I myself wanted to ask you, but I did not know how. In addition, you are now working, but how to relax? "I had a day off that day, I just drove to the playground to meet him. And he has a complete shooting shift. "Yes, nothing, come to me in the evening to me at the hotel, sit, chat, creepy," he says. And here I come to Him to the hotel. Raise his room on a separate elevator. And there is Tom Hanks to meet me - a familiar and favorite actor - and naturally asks that way: "Beer will you?" I: "No, let's be better than a seagull." And he himself, not any assistant, went to brew tea, so simple, homely. And we sat down, driven the scene and started talking about life. He sincerely interested in me, my work, my theater. I was interested in him and the Crimea, and my attitude to what is happening. We talked two hours, and so, as if I were with my friend, Misha Efremov, sat, chatted. "
About responsibility:
"When I was approved for a role, I, of course, rejoiced. On the streets, of course, did not run with a poster and a swelling language, but Miche Efremov called: "And I took the movie Spielberg!" We brag about each other before each other, but it is homemade, good boasting. But in general, this is, of course, a big responsibility. All the pictures of Stephen Spielberg form the consciousness of people. And this film is incredibly relevant now. And I am joying that I can scrup on the whole world with Spielberg: "People, stop! You have crazy! "Then managed to do it. Will it be possible now? Question".
