Film career

The creative biography of Artem Tkachenko started in 2003. He got a role in the film “Don’t Even Think 2: Shadow of Independence.” He played his first main character in the film “Russian Triangle”. Konstantin Khabensky worked with him on the set.

The first fame came when Artem Tkachenko’s filmography was replenished with the film project “Sword Bearer”. Chulpan Khamatova worked with him on the set. Artem had a positive attitude towards the role in the film, because I wanted to get rid of the comedic image.

Subsequently, Artem played equally well in both comedies and action-packed dramas. He appeared before the audience in a variety of images. For example, in the film project “Lawyers” he played an adventurer lawyer. And in the fantasy project, “Abigail” appeared in the image of Garrett, the head of the Security Department, a powerful magician.

The filmography of Artem Tkachenko includes more than 80 projects. It is worth highlighting such films as “Hunting the Devil”, “Red Queen”, “Gogol. The Beginning", "Gogol. Terrible Revenge”, “Union of Salvation”, “Outpost”, “Children for Rent”, “One Breath”. At the present stage, Artem is working on creating several projects at once. In the near future, such films as “North Star” and “Udalenka” will be released on screens.

PERSONAL LIFE

In 2004, Artem Tkachenko married actress Ravshana Kurkova. Four years later, the couple parted as friends.

In 2012, the actor married for the second time. His chosen one was model Evgenia Khrapovitskaya. In 2013, the couple had a son, Tikhon. However, this union was short-lived.

In the spring of 2020, Artem Tkachenko appeared at one of the premieres with his new lover, aspiring actress Ekaterina Steblina. And already in the summer, at Kinotavr, it became known that the couple was expecting a child. In November 2020, a boy was born, who was named Stepan.

Personal life of Artem Tkachenko

The talented and bright artist is married for the third time. His first chosen one, whom he called the girl of his dreams, was actress Ravshana Kurkova. Their marriage lasted from 2004 to 2008. Some fans of this bright couple consider the culprit of the breakup to be the actor who allegedly cheated on her with Ekaterina Semenova, familiar to the viewer from the TV series “Two Fates.” Others claim that the reason for their separation was Ravshana’s affair with photographer Dmitry Iskhakov.

Artem Tkachenko was married to Ravshana Kurkova

They maintained friendly relations, after the divorce they starred together in the films “Sakura Jam”, “Medusa”, “Something Wrong with the Parents”, “Russian Triangle” and others.

The second wife of the green-eyed handsome man was the star of the TV series “Kitchen” Evgenia Khrapovitskaya. They met at a rock concert by Garik Sukachev. To attract her attention, as the artist later admitted, he couldn’t think of anything better than to come up and bite her ear. They got married in 2012, and in 2013 they had a son, Tikhon. Moreover, Artem was present at the birth, which lasted more than a day. “It was hell!” the actor recalled. In 2020, 28-year-old Zhenya left him for 52-year-old Igor Vernik, with whom her affair lasted less than a year.

Tkachenko’s third lover was actress Ekaterina Steblina. They were first published at the “Movement” debut film festival in Omsk. Then they appeared in Sochi at Kinotavr. In November 2016, his wife gave the film actor a second son, who was named Stepan.

Tkachenko is now married to Ekaterina Steblina

Artem loves comfort and delicious food, and often cooks himself. According to the artist, what he thinks about is consistently fulfilled in his life (perhaps because his grandmother on his father’s side was a gypsy?). But he believes in the materialization of thoughts, and believes that bad thoughts should not be driven away, but replaced with positive ones.

short biography

Tkachenko Artem Valerievich was born in 1982. This event took place in Kaliningrad on April 30 in a family that has nothing to do with cinema. Artem doesn’t remember his father, because... his parents divorced when he was only a few months old. After the separation, the father was not interested in the child’s life.

The mother of the popular actor works as a conductor. Thanks to her efforts, Artem learned to play the guitar and piano at a young age. The actor was not a particularly good student. He was not attracted to science. When the guy turned 14 years old, he decided to enter the military music school. I did it for the company. But later I realized that studying at the school could not be called easy, so I took away the documents.

Actor Artem Tkachenko entered the theater lyceum on the advice of his mother. He studied on the same course with the Arntgolts sisters. Subsequently, the three of them set off to conquer Moscow. They continued their studies at the Shchepkinsky School.

INTERVIEW

About self-criticism

“I am well aware that I make mistakes. Because of this, I watched very few of my films, because I reflect: now I will not like some scene or it will seem that it was not played at all, and I will begin to destroy myself. I'm a terrible Samoyed and sometimes I chew myself to the point where I start choking. This is probably true of all creative people, and even more so for actors.”

About a cheerful disposition

“I don’t need to be rocked for long for the fun to begin. I am a good guest and, by the way, a grateful viewer. I can’t call myself a one-man orchestra, I don’t strive to replace the toastmaster, corps de ballet and musicians at any holiday, but after a certain point I’m a lot of fun.”

About the materialization of thoughts

“In my life, what I think about is consistently fulfilled. But when a bad thought does come to your mind, you get scared at how quickly it all comes true. I know for sure that if, while riding a bicycle, I say to myself: “It’s been a while since I fell,” I’ll be on the ground in ten minutes. (Laughs.) With something good, everything doesn’t happen so quickly. But the main thing is not to drive away bad thoughts, but to replace them with positive ones.”
