Actress Natalya Shvets preparing for filming
It was her second year of study at the university, Natasha, like all students of the theater department, went to Mosfilm. One day, a casting agent working there invited her to meet with a certain young director Kirill Serebrennikov, who was just starting to film the series “Rostov-Papa.” The girl heeded this advice and agreed to meet with the man in a cafe.
As Natalya Shvets herself said, Kirill took one look at her and immediately decided to take the girl into his film. “There is no script yet,” he said, but even despite the absence of one, the director realized at first glance that this actress was definitely needed in his film. In the future, Natasha worked with Kirill for a long time and productively, mainly playing in productions in his theater. The girl played Tamara in the production of “Demon”, Nadya in the play “Candid Polaroids”, Lena in “I.O.” and many other roles.
Natalia worked hard and rehearsed. She said that every role leaves some piece of itself in the soul. It’s not so easy to throw out of your memory a personality that you have been thinking through, rehearsing, creating for so long. The person you were for a while. This leaves a mark on your own person, on your worldview and understanding of certain issues.

To the cinema
The actress films a lot. She can be seen both in full-length films and in TV series. According to Natalya, there is no difference where to play, the main thing is how, you need to do your job with dignity, without skimping or slacking.
For a long time, directors associated the actress exclusively with lyrical heroines. She played Nastenka in the series “The Diary of a Murderer” by Serebrennikov, Ira Milovanova in the series “Kamenskaya,” which was loved by the audience, Rita in “Farewell Echo,” and Leah in “My Prechistenka.” But soon the situation changed.
The actress played her first negative character in a series called “Chasing an Angel.” This was in 2006. Natalya perfectly managed to personify the image of the ruthless killer girl Marina, who was hired to “remove” the father of the main character of the film.
The actress remembers her first “villain” with pleasure. In order to play this role, she had to practice karate hard for a month and a half. She was even given a personal trainer. Trying to get used to the character, Natalya, according to her, kept thinking about what made her heroine turn into a killer. But she never received an answer...

Then there was the mythical series “A Second Before...”, where the image of the real witch Lera was personified by Natalya Shvets, an actress whose personal life is a closed topic for many. That's what she wanted.
