Actress Yulia Agafonova is popular thanks to theater and cinema

The parents of our today's heroine had nothing to do with art, and therefore, as Agafonova herself says, His Majesty Chance decided a lot in her life. Even in early childhood, the future actress accidentally ended up in a theater studio where some of her friends were studying. Her acquaintance with the theater turned out to be successful, and therefore very soon the young beauty began to dream of a star career. She collected files of newspapers with interesting reports from the “Gossip Chronicle” section and dreamed that someday she would also be lucky, as the first stars of American and European cinema were once lucky.

Parents always supported their daughter in her desire to become an actress. When Yulia graduated from high school, they collected everything she needed and took her to the station, from which she went to a foreign and unfamiliar Moscow. The Russian capital, however, received her quite cordially. In 1999, the girl entered the Moscow Art Theater School and began studying acting in the workshop of E. Kamenkovich. Here our today's heroine honed her skills for five years. And very soon the enormous diligence brought its results. Teachers began to celebrate her, and some time later Yulia Agafonova began to receive offers from prestigious Moscow theaters. In the end, among many offers, the young actress chose the Moscow “La' Theater”. Our today's heroine subsequently played on this stage for several years.

In 2008, Yulia Agafonova began acting in the melodrama “Wedding Ring.” As part of this project, she appeared on screens for 4 years in the image of the heroine Sonya Orlovich. For many fans of the series, her Sonya has become practically family.

It should be noted that all this time, while the girl was filming films, she never left the stage of La Theater for a moment. Here theatergoers enjoyed watching her play in the plays “Dangerous Liaisons”, “Glass Dust”, “Warm Paris” and many others. Agafonova in a short time managed to become one of the brightest actresses of the troupe. But not only on this stage she embodied interesting images. Julia could be seen at the Chekhov Moscow Art Theater and the capital's Master Theater.

2011 became a landmark year for Yulia Agafonova. Her fame reached its peak. The artist was offered a job in the popular multi-part project “Closed School”. The actress played Maria Vershinina, the biological mother of Maxim Morozov. This role brought Agafonova considerable fame. Since then, directors have paid closer attention to the talented and bright St. Petersburg woman.

Yulia Agafonova on the set of the series “Closed School”

Yulia Agafonova has average parameters (height 170 cm, weight 54 kg), which allows the actress to look organically in the role of the most ordinary women, but at the same time she has a bewitching look and lively facial expressions, clearly showing the audience that this is the main character.

One of the most rated recent projects in which Yulia Agafonova appeared is the series “Ship,” an adaptation of the Spanish television series “Ark.” Yulia got one of the main roles here - the actress played Ksenia Danilova, the ship's doctor and scientist. The first season of the Russian post-apocalyptic show was released in January 2014.

The plot of the series is built around the crew of the training ship “Running on the Waves”. Twenty cadets, accompanied by a captain and an assistant, a scientist and a cook, set off on a voyage, which, according to the plans of the young people, was supposed to be more of a vacation than a study trip. But in the midst of the voyage, the cadets learn that a catastrophe occurred on land - an explosion at the Large Hadron Collider, which led to a global environmental disaster, and all continents went under water.

The ship's crew considers themselves the last survivors. Some of the heroes are trying to find out the truth about the disaster, some suspect the captain of hiding the truth. Subsequent events justify the heroes' suspicions. In the second season, which aired in March and April 2020, the characters encountered new people, as well as the mystery of the Alexandria Project, connected to the disaster.

A distinctive feature that set “The Ship” apart from a number of other disaster films was the focus of the film on the romantic relationships of the characters, and not on the investigation of secret conspiracies or adventures designed to save the lives of the characters. The series shows the development of a number of couples among the cadets, as well as the relationship between the heroine Yulia Agafonova and the captain in love with the scientist. Critics of the series believe that perhaps this approach was the reason for the closure of the film.

Despite the fact that the post-apocalyptic melodrama received recognition and even won a professional prize from the Association of Motion Picture and Television Producers in the field of television cinema, the channel’s management announced the closure of the series in 2020 and officially stated that it would not order a third season.

Personal life of Yulia Agafonova

Little is known about the actress’s personal life. Currently, Julia does not have a husband or lover. She lives alone, devoting herself entirely to her favorite work. In her free time, she often travels, and also enjoys drawing and improving her knowledge of the English language.
