Igor Ogurtsov, actor: biography, family
Born on November 3, 1992 in the city of Kalininets, in the Moscow region. In what family did the future artist grow up? His mother Elena received a higher technical education. But she has been a housewife for many years. And Igor’s father, Alexey Ogurtsov, does not need any special introduction. He is a popular actor, professional stuntman and successful producer. Many of us know him from the films “Officers”, “Paragraph 78” and “Day Watch”. Our hero has a younger sister, Vika. She is 13 years old.
Personal life of Alexey
The family life of our hero is quiet, calm and measured. This is what distinguishes him from many other famous actors. There is one woman in his life, whom he has known for decades, who loves and appreciates him, and these feelings are mutual. There are two children in the Ogurtsov family. One of them, Igor, is also interested in acting. He plans to connect his life with cinema.
The guy first appeared on television in the famous television series “Molodezhka”. There he played with his father. The guy very seriously intends to conquer Russian cinema, and there are even rumors that he and Alexey want to create their own project. What it will be and how they will release their brainchild is still unknown. Alexey said in one of his last interviews that in the near future he will delight his fans with many more interesting works.
Ogurtsov’s wife is a housewife who devoted half her life to her family and home comfort. Her men are the most important and valuable thing in her life. She treats her husband’s work calmly, but no longer reacts to fans. At first she was a little jealous of her husband, but then she got used to it and came to terms with the fact that this was just a cost of the profession.
Introduction to cinema
Igor Ogurtsov is an actor who first appeared on screens at the age of 11. Then American director Terry Hughes came to Russia. He filmed the series “The Third Planet from the Sun.” The director came to our country to find an actor for his project. A lot of people of different ages came to the casting. The American liked the cheerful boy Igor. Ogurtsov was approved for the role of the boy Vasya. He appeared in the frame only for a few minutes. But this is not so important. After all, the Russian boy was on the same stage with such stars as Joseph Gordon-Levitt and John Lithgow.
Upon returning from the USA, our hero decided to begin the conquest of Russian cinema. Before graduating from school, he starred in several TV series and films. Among them are the following projects: “School”, “Exile”, “Groom for Barbie” and “Ranetki”.
Career continuation
In 2013, the young actor appeared in the TV series “Molodezhka”. He got the role of hockey player Semyon Bakin. Ogurtsov Jr. coped 100% with the tasks set by the director. His colleagues on the set were: Fedor Bondarchuk, Ksenia Lavrova-Glinka, Julia Margulis and Sergei Gabrielyan.
In the spring of 2020, the TNT channel launched the series “The Law of the Concrete Jungle,” designed for an audience aged 16 to 35 years. This time Igor successfully got used to the role of the Beetle. This character is a prominent representative of the street youth. He is an orphan and lives with his grandmother. Together with his friends, Zhuk gets involved in criminal matters in order to get easy money.
Igor Ogurtsov: I always do without doubles
Igor Ogurtsov spoke about the difficulties of filming two series at the same time and about his readiness to become a father.
Igor Ogurtsov has two premieres in March - the continuation of the series “Molodezhka” on the STS channel, where he plays goalkeeper Semyon Bakin number 38, and the second season of “The Law of the Concrete Jungle” on TNT, in which his character Zhuk receives a dangerous head injury and must decide whether to continue fighting, knowing that one missed blow could make him disabled for life... Both projects require serious sports training from Igor. In an interview with Sobesednik.ru, Ogurtsov spoke about how he resolves disputes with his wife, about the new apartment and that sometimes he feels like a penguin.
“We’ll live in an ice palace for six months”
– In “The Law of the Concrete Jungle” you have a lot of dangerous tricks. And you do everything yourself. How did the director take such a risk?
– I am a master of sports in army hand-to-hand combat, I always do without backups. Why replace me if I know better than anyone how it’s all done?! I went through the school of fighting without rules, fought both in the ring and in the cage.
– Are there any difficulties in hockey anymore?
“They didn’t immediately allow me to perform complex techniques on my own. And then one day they were filming a game and no one told the director that I was standing at the goal, and not my backup, hockey player Oleg Kapitulin. The director shouted: “Kapa, handsome!” – and only later did they explain to him that it was me. Training continues: crossfit, skating and a mandatory exercise for goalkeepers - squats with iron plates.
– Aren’t you tired of playing hockey?
– No, the ice palace has become my second home, the goalie uniform is like a second skin, I don’t even notice it. The guys and I have been together for five years, like one big family, sometimes we fight and annoy each other, but when we meet after the weekend, we hug like family.
– Fyodor Bondarchuk is not only the general producer of Molodezhka, but also played the role of an oligarch in the series. Did you have a chance to communicate?
– When we were filming the first season, Fyodor Sergeevich came to our locker room and said: “Well done, guys! If you need anything, speak up!” And he constantly communicated with us on the site.
– Didn’t you teach him how to play hockey?
- Everything is ahead. One of these days we will begin filming the fifth season of “Molodezhka” - there will be 25 shooting days a month for 12 hours each. We will practically live in the ice palace for six months. It will be summer for everyone, but we are like penguins in the refrigerator.
“I can change diapers and bathe myself”
– You got married a year and a half ago. How is family life going?
- Great, marriage is generally good. Usually everyone says that it’s hard, but Iya and I immediately found a common language. The first month of everyday life was a little oppressive, but we learned to restrain each other and discuss all controversial issues. We recently bought an apartment in Khimki, we are renovating it, putting everything into it. I'm used to living in the region, there is a forest here, you can walk peacefully.

– Did your parents help you with the apartment?
- No, we earned it ourselves.
– Are you planning on having children?
“We’re still rehearsing, but in principle I’m ready to become a dad, since I often sat with my sister Vika, she is ten years younger than me. When she was born, my parents calmly left her with me, and I liked to tinker with her. Therefore, when we have a child, I will be able to change diapers, bathe, and feed myself.
– Your character Beetle had quite a lot of love scenes in the first season of “Law of the Concrete Jungle.” Isn't I jealous?
– Yes, we are faced with this problem. But for me this is just work, especially since I refused to do very explicit scenes. Such things are not for me. Iya jokes that soon, while kissing on camera, I will look into the camera and wink at it. She is an engineer-economist by profession, works as a clerk-consultant in a notary office, is far from the field of cinema and TV, but she likes her work. I couldn't stand sitting in one place all the time. And at first it was also difficult for her to get used to my schedule and lifestyle. Misunderstandings arose, and several times they even decided to break up. But over time they came to a compromise.
– Recently, several projects about adultery have been released on television: “Betrayal”, “Double Continuous”, “Not Together” and others. Why do you think people cheat on their loved ones?
– I don’t know, maybe I didn’t get enough exercise at a young age.
-Have you finished your walk?
– If I got married, then yes. Iya and I have been dating since 2010, got married in 2015, we know each other from “A” to “Z”. When we quarrel, I say: “Now you will say this.” I love it.
Igor Ogurtsov (actor): personal life
Our hero is a handsome, talented and educated guy. Many girls would like to connect their fate with him. Even in high school, Igor had a constant stream of female fans. And after he started acting in films, their number increased several times.
Ogurtsov Jr. never enjoyed his popularity. The young man did not want the girl to look at him as a media personality. The guy considered modesty, kindness, thriftiness and responsiveness to be the main qualities of his potential chosen one.
Several years ago, actor Igor Ogurtsov met a girl who fit the parameters listed above. Iya Oganezova is the name of the beloved performer of the role of Bakin in Molodezhka.
Personal life
For some time, Igor Ogurtsov remained an eligible bachelor, but eventually announced that he was dating a girl named Iya Oganesova, who works in the legal field. They were in a relationship for more than five years until they got married in 2020. The girl has Caucasian roots, but the family happily accepted her chosen one. In 2017, the couple had a son, whom the young parents have not yet shown to the public.
The actor admits that being a young husband and father is a difficult and responsible task, but he is proud of how his personal life is shaping up and does not lose self-confidence. Igor Ogurtsov continues to actively act in various projects. In 2020, the international film “Viy 2. The Secret of the Dragon Seal” will be released with the participation of the actor. Filming of new seasons of the beloved TV series “Molodezhka” and “ZKD” is also underway.
Wedding
For some time the couple lived in a civil marriage. In the spring of 2014, our hero proposed to Iya. The beauty agreed. The guy's famous father approved of his choice.
The lovers planned to get married in the summer of 2014. However, the celebration had to be postponed. And all because of the young actor’s busy filming schedule.
The wedding of Iya Oganezova and Igor Ogurtsov took place on August 28, 2015. The choice of date was not accidental. Two symbolizes a couple, and eight symbolizes the infinity of feelings.
Let's return to the celebration. First, the guy and the girl signed in one of the capital's registry offices. Then the newlyweds went to Mytishchi, where their parents, close friends and relatives were waiting for them. A total of 86 people were invited.
The wedding was celebrated outdoors. An arch of fresh flowers was built especially for the newlyweds. The tablecloths and chair covers are made of natural green fabric. The tables were laden with a large number of gourmet dishes, delicacies and elite alcoholic drinks. An extensive entertainment program was prepared for the newly-made spouses and their guests, including dancing, fun competitions and congratulations.
Now the Ogurtsovs live in their own apartment located in Khimki. They try to spend as much time together as possible. Iya does household chores and pleases her beloved husband with delicious lunches and dinners. Actor Igor Ogurtsov is the main breadwinner in the family. The couple is not thinking about children yet.
