He currently works at Tabakov Studio (the theatre of Oleg Tabakov). Sergey Bezrukov is the son of actor Vitali Bezrukov, graduated from Moscow Art Theatre, and made his cinema debut in Nocturne for Drum and Motorcycle. Since 1994 he has played a wide range of characters in Russian films and mini-series, such as Ivan Brilling in Azazel, Kappel in Admiral, Vladimir Vysotsky in Vysotsky Thank You for Being Alive, Sergei Yesenin in Yesenin, and most recently Sumarokov in The Strict Routine Vacations. He also performs as a voice actor, giving life to titular character Prince Vladimir in the animated film, and providing voices for Russian television series Kukly. Throughout the 2000s, Bezrukov has portrayed numerous Russian historical figures, notably Alexander Pushkin, regarded by some to be Russia’s premiere poet. According to the survey of ROMIR Monitoring, in Russia he was called the favourite actor of 2005. In March 2014, Bezrukov invited controversy when he signed a letter of support for President Vladimir Putin’s military occupation of the Ukraine’s Crimean Peninsula.

Billing
Counts from TMDB across their full career, self appearances out; a title counts in every role they held on it. The ring is the typical Midcredits score (the median percentile) of the role's titles that are on MovieCove, shown from 5 scored. Billing is TMDB cast order for roles with 25+ votes, billed in the top 30; the columns are the share of top-billed roles in each era, 5-year spans from the year on the label, merged until each holds at least 5 roles.
How do Sergey Bezrukov's films land?
Their typical MovieCove film has a Midcredits score in the 38th percentile, the median of all 9; across their 8 films with reception data, the typical film sits in the 36th percentile for acclaim.

Percentiles are each film's standing among all films on MovieCove; the typical film is the median, so one outlier cannot drag it. Percentiles and reviewer scores count the films IMDb credits them on, for now; the Midcredits score bands, the shape of the crowd and the two cards count their MovieCove titles, shows included (a show ranked among shows), appearances as themselves left out. A descriptor is the shape of a title's IMDb rating distribution against the catalog; "most divisive" needs a spread wider than half of all titles, and a card names only a principal credit: a craft role, and on a show a crew role or a run of episodes, never a courtesy credit or a one-off guest spot.
