Aristarchus Venes: family, childhood
The performer of the role of Ilya Sukhomlin was born in Moscow in October 1989. Aristarchus Venes is a man who was lucky enough to be born into a creative family. His father and mother are actors by profession. Victor Venes was remembered by the audience from the film “Outskirts”. Svetlana Shibaeva left her career early, focusing on raising children. Aristarchus has a younger sister, Marusya. He owes his unusual surname to Greek roots.
Aristarchus grew up as an active and lively boy, he had many hobbies. The child was in love with the magical world of music. He learned to play first the violin, then the guitar. Venes's other passion was sports, or rather football.
Childhood and family
Aristarkh Venes was born in Moscow, where his parents, actors Viktor Venes and Svetlana Shibaeva, moved from Yaroslavl. 13 years later he had a younger sister, Marusya.

His paternal grandparents were political emigrants from Greece. Both the actor’s surname and his name, which translated means “lord of the best,” have Greek roots. The boy was called "Arisa" for short.

Aristarchus was a comprehensively developed child. He studied at an English special school, professionally played football, weightlifting, karate, swimming, dancing, and learned to play the violin. In addition to Russian and English, the actor knows Greek and French.

Choosing a life path
As a teenager, Aristarchus Venes saw himself in his dreams as a famous football player. The serious injury he received during the game put an end to his dream. Then the young man thought about a career as a translator, since he had the ability to study foreign languages. English, French, Greek are the languages he speaks perfectly.
In the end, genes won. Aristarchus decided to connect his life with the world of dramatic art, which he was not destined to regret. At the age of 15, Venes entered the Moscow Art Theater School and was taken into his workshop by Konstantin Raikin. The actor never graduated from this educational institution, the reason for this was family circumstances. In 2010, Aristarkh became a student at VGIK and entered the workshop of V. D. Rubinchik and S. A. Solovyov.
Biography
Aristrakh Viktorovich Venes was born on 10/04/89 in the capital of Russia. Both of his parents were directly related to acting: his mother at one time worked in the theater, but after the birth of her children she began to focus exclusively on them, and his father, Victor Venes, managed to play in several Soviet films, one of which is “Outskirts”. Victor himself is a descendant of Greek emigrants who moved to the USSR in 1949 for political reasons. Therefore, when Aristarchus is asked about his nationality, he calls himself “Russian with Greek roots.”
Despite his multifaceted development and various hobbies, after 9th grade he is expelled from school, and he goes to the Moscow Art Theater School, to take the course of Arkady Raikin. Having not completed his studies there, Aristarchus entered VGIK and began to try himself in some roles. At first these were small roles, but in 2006 the cult series “Kadetstvo” was released on the screens of the STS TV channel, where Aristarchus got one of the main roles. He became a real idol for young people and a fairly sought-after artist who continues his career to this day.
First roles
Aristarchus Venes first appeared on the set in 2002. The aspiring actor made his debut in Pyotr Todorovsky’s drama “Life is Full of Fun.” He got a minor role, but he was able to watch the work of his star colleagues, such as Andrei Panin, Vladimir Simonov, Irina Rozanova, Larisa Udovichenko.
Aristarchus’s first serious achievement was participation in the adventure series “Operation Color of the Nation.” In this television project, he created the image of the young computer genius Vadim. Then the young actor appeared in the TV series “Cadets”, where his character was the general’s grandson Artem Kotov.
Finest hour
From the biography of Aristarchus Venes it follows that he acquired the status of a star thanks to the series “Kadetstvo”. This television project tells about the everyday life of young cadets of the Suvorov Military School. The young man got the role of one of them. He created the image of the intelligent and well-mannered Ilya Sukhomlin.
Venes has never had vision problems, but his hero Ilya wears glasses. It is known that the actor himself proposed such a solution to the creators of the series. It seemed to him that this would be a wonderful touch to the image of a charming intellectual. Thanks to his work on the television project “Kadetstvo”, Aristarchus made many new friends. He developed warm relations with many Suvorovites.
From the biography of Aristarchus Venes it follows that he gladly agreed to star in the continuation of the story. The series “Kremlin Cadets” tells viewers about the future fate of their favorite characters. The characters have already matured, their views on life have changed.

Ivan cannot be called an active user of social networks, and one may get the impression that he has nothing to post there. In fact, he is completely immersed in the acting profession and simply does not consider it necessary to be distracted by extraneous activities.

Film and television projects
The series “Kadetstvo” was a success with viewers. All the leading actors woke up famous, and Aristarchus Venes was no exception. The filmography of the young actor began to actively expand, as the directors also paid attention to the promising newcomer.
The artist appeared in the popular TV series “Daddy’s Daughters.” In the anniversary episode, he got the role of the outrageous pop singer Artem Bryukin. Next, Aristarchus embodied the image of a key character in the melodrama Odnoklassniki. The actor's hero was a young man named Stepan, hopelessly in love with a girl who once studied with him in the same class.
"The Law of the Concrete Jungle"
Perhaps the main achievement of Aristarkh Viktorovich Venes at the moment is the main role in the series “The Law of the Concrete Jungle.” The youth tragicomedy tells the story of a gang of teenagers who are planning to commit a daring crime. It all starts with the fact that, in the hope of easy money, friends agree to drive a car with stolen cargo inside. Then they make one mistake after another, as a result of which they get into serious trouble with the law.
The hero of Aristarchus in this television project was a guy named Tim. He has an amazing ability to create problems for himself and those around him. The character follows a crooked path not so much for money as for self-affirmation. Tim has nothing in common with the actor himself, so Venes was very interested in trying on this role. In preparation for filming, he was forced to lose weight to 64 kg. Aristarchus also re-read a lot of crime literature and watched several episodes of the British television project “Misfits.”
Aristarchus Venes: “The girls spent their days and nights under my windows”
Aristarchus Venes was one of the participants in the recent Scarlet Sails Artek festival. The star of the TV series “Kadetstvo”, “Kremlin Cadets”, “Law of the Concrete Jungle” flew to the Black Sea coast with his sister and met his many fans on the spot. However, the attention of the girls and the sea breeze did not distract the 27-year-old actor from festival affairs, sports and interviews with WomanHit.ru.
— Aristarchus, you came to Artek with your sister Maria. Tell us a little about her.
— Maria Venes is my younger sister. She and I have a big difference - thirteen years. But you don't feel it. Sometimes I think she's older than me. She says: “Aris, you are five years old...”. I am happy that Maria comes here, because, firstly, she really likes it here, and secondly, she speaks professional language with everyone. We come from an acting family, and our parents took us to adult companies. She has also been writing scripts since she was five years old and directing films herself. When I studied at VGIK with Solovyov, he told me: “Bring me what she writes.” So she has her own interests.
— Will Masha also be an actress?
— She starred in the TV series “Code of Honor” as a child, and she has one of the main roles in the film “No More Important Than Love.” But she doesn't want to be an actress. He says: “I’m not a fool, I want to be either a director or a producer.”
— Many of your colleagues view the festival, which takes place on the seashore, as an opportunity to combine work and leisure. How do you like to relax?
— When I arrived at Artek, I thought that I would fall out of my schedule. The fact is that lately I have a schedule every day: one workout in the morning, another in the afternoon. Then boxing, music, rehearsals. I now lead a healthy lifestyle: I don’t drink, I don’t smoke. Fortunately, here in Crimea, I have a luxurious gym close by, where I work out. I came, first did cardio training, stood in the plank, then pumped up, and then boxing. This is how I relax. No matter how hard it is and how much I want to get up and go to training, I still go. Because I know: the moment when you start to succeed, even though you couldn’t do it before, is incomparable to anything.

— Do you need good physical training for a new film project?
“I have always trained and been in good physical shape for as long as I can remember. The exception was the year I had surgery. In 2014, I suffered a rupture of the anterior cruciate ligaments of the knee joint on my right leg. I got injured while playing football with Timur Efremenkov. In general, I adore football, it is the most masculine game on the planet. The most dynamic, the most spectacular. But football is the toughest sport. Before the injury, I weighed 71 kilograms. And before filming the series “The Law of the Concrete Jungle” they told me: “Venes. We need to lose weight." I didn’t get fat, my muscles just sank and I became loose. I had to switch to a healthy diet and start training. And everything was fine again. I like the way I look now. Light, agile actor's body. I'm not a bodybuilder.
— You were seriously involved in football for several years, even before the injury. Why did you have to quit?
— I played football for eight years. But he began working in cinema at the age of six. When I was little, I thought that these things could be combined. And I still think so. In general, I always had things to do. I could also become a military translator.
— Do you know foreign languages?
- This is said very loudly. In fact, I'm not in the best shape right now. For example, in French. Although, I think I’ll remember after about a month of practice. I know Greek and English, but there is also room for improvement. A year ago I had my first filming experience with director Andrzej Bartkowiak. And although the filming was done by Americans, I didn’t have any problems with the English language at all. Moreover, we sometimes reworked the text practically on the set.
In the new film “Beyond,” about swindlers with superpowers, Aristarchus played a young man with telekinesis. For the role, the actor had to lighten his hair and get a perm.

— Here, in Crimea, there are many fans around you. Tell us, how is your relationship with them?
- They fold up normally. Now, of course, it’s not the same as before. Six years ago it was a different time. Now what’s the point in spending the night under my windows when you can take a photo and see on social networks what’s going on with me? And even during the popularity of the series “Kadetstvo” my entire entrance was painted: I love you, good, handsome, and so on... The girls spent their days and nights under my windows. But I definitely didn’t lose my head because of it.
— If you believe social networks, then you are dating a certain beautiful girl. Isn't she jealous of her fans?
— To be honest, I would not like to discuss my personal life. But I don't have a girlfriend. Social networks lie. My personal life has not yet been arranged, although this does not particularly bother me. Work takes up all my time.
- Which girl could win your heart?
- Real. In general, I love real people. I have unique taste because I pay attention to details. How the girl is silent, how she eats, how she smiles, how embarrassed she is. Everything is important. Of course, I love prominent, beautiful girls. But I really don’t like stupid people. As well as primitive behavior and an unpleasantly melodious voice. I pay attention to everything. In general, girls don’t know what I’m like in everyday life. Let them think I'm such a gorgeous guy. (Smiles.) But in everyday life I am simply unbearable. And I'm never at home.
