“The project is now on pause, the question arose with the replacement of the artist. Dmitry Nazarov will not remain in the film – no one wants to take risks. I don’t want to rest on some personal relationship, but I am a patriot of my country, and of course, I’m not happy with everything that happened, ”said the director of the film, Petr Zelenov.
According to him, investors also opposed Nazarov’s participation in the film.
The picture was scheduled for filming in 2019, but the pandemic has made adjustments to the plans of the film crew. “Now we are trying to get government funding for this project, and I hope everything works out,” the director said.
