Childhood and youth
Sergei was born in Leningrad on June 16, 1976 into an intelligent family. The actor admits that St. Petersburg is his favorite city, in which every house, every block evokes warm memories of childhood.
The celebrity’s childhood followed the model of the Soviet era: pioneer meetings, classes in circles, ceremonial assemblies, vacations in a pioneer camp. Sergei attended the drama club. At the age of 12, the boy had already become an amateur theater star, so the guy’s decision to enter GITIS did not surprise anyone close to him.
After school, Sergei Mukhin left for Moscow. The young man entered, but not everything in the biography of the future artist went smoothly. Sergei Alexandrovich changed several professions: he studied music, worked at a factory, and tried his hand at law enforcement. Later, this experience was useful in acting. Sergei says that he took the example of Jack London, who changed almost 20 professions and then found himself by becoming a writer.
Biography of Sergei Mukhin
Actor Mukhin was born on June 16, 1976 in Leningrad. He studied well, studied in a drama club, and at the age of 12 he played on the stage of a youth theater. But he, impressed by the fate of Jack London, who changed more than twenty professions before achieving his dream, did not immediately come to his favorite business.
He studied many specialties at various courses, studied music and vocals, which later became very useful to him as an actor.
Then there was Moscow, years of study at GITIS and courses for screenwriters and directors. In 2001, my studies were completed, work at the Mossovet Theater and the first performances lay ahead:
- "Mother Courage";
- "Black Bride";
- "Will-o'-the-wisps"
At the Kazantsev Drama Center, “Transfer”, “Moscow - an open city” and others were performed with his participation. For the first time, his theatrical abilities were truly revealed in the production of “Plasticine” directed by Kirill Serebrennikov based on the play by Vasily Sigarev. The performance took place in many countries , received excellent reviews from critics, and won many prizes and awards.
He reveals such sides of a person’s soul where he is usually afraid to look, reveals those tragic pictures of the life around him that the average person tries not to notice. According to audience reviews, Mukhin makes it clear from his first appearance that behind this outwardly attractive face hides a far from ideal character.
Personal life
The stately actor (Sergei’s height is 178 cm) occasionally talks about his personal life. Mukhin met his wife, actress Anastasia Savosina, on the set of the film “My Prechistenka” in 2004, and a few years later fate brought the artists together on the set of the series “There Was Love.” During this time, Nastya managed to give birth to a child while in a relationship with another man.
Soon the friendship that arose between Sergei and Anastasia grew into a romance. The wedding took place in 2010. Many guests gathered on the ship.
Today the couple are happy, they are raising four children - three sons and a youngest daughter. The artist posts photos of his family on his Instagram. He calls his family “world champions for the love of life.”

The performer also shows off his athletic torso. Horseback riding, boxing and swimming help the artist maintain physical fitness. One of Mukhin’s latest hobbies is hockey. Sergei mastered the basics of acting for real men and even joined the acting team.
Sergei Alexandrovich dreams of playing himself, his life story, in a movie, and does not rule out the possibility that this will happen in the future.
The biography of each answers negatively to the questions that arise about the relationship of the two artists - Sergei Mukhin and Dmitry Mukhin. The actors are not brothers or relatives, and besides, Dmitry is from the Belarusian city of Bobruisk.
Sergey Mukhin, wife
The actor has a rich filmography, but his greatest fame came from his participation in the film “Don’t Even Think” and the TV series “Doomed to Be a Star.” Sergei Mukhin’s wife Anastasia Savosina is also an actress, and they met on the set of the TV movie “My Prechistenka” in 2004. True, at that time there was no talk of any office romance - Anastasia was married and their relationship remained only a working one.

A few years later, fate brought them together again - on the set of the series “There Was Love,” in which Sergei played the best friend of her heroine Anya Panfilova. The sympathy between them quickly grew into a stronger feeling that connected their lives into one.
Sergei Mukhin’s wife also works with him in theatrical projects - for example, in the play “A Day Without Shopping” the spouses play the main roles. Moreover, this theatrical production became the first directorial work of Sergei, who plans to take this seriously in the future.

The family union of Sergei and Anastasia has existed since 2010, and all this time, not only love, but also true friendship has lived in their family, and this is very important for the spouses. They remember with warmth their wedding, which took place on a ship surrounded by a huge number of guests. It was no coincidence that their family life began with that little trip - the couple love to spend their holidays traveling around the world. While Anastasia’s son from her first marriage, Misha, was little, they did not dare to go on long trips, but when he grew up, there were more opportunities for everyone to travel together.
Work brings Sergei and Anastasia closer together - they sometimes have creative differences, but this is quite normal for people of art. Sergei Mukhin’s wife, when time permits, comes to him for filming, just as he comes to her.
The actor loves to play in the theater rather than appear in TV series. He considers stage work to be more precise, stable and creative. Sergei decided to try himself as a director because the acting profession is dependent, and he dreams of embodying his own ideas in his work. He categorically rejects participation in all kinds of shows that have recently become popular among theater and film stars. Sergei believes that these projects devalue his profession, which he takes very seriously. He also takes family relationships seriously, building which, in his opinion, is a huge amount of work, but only this view of the family allows him to preserve feelings for a long time.
Theater
After GITIS, Mukhin served at the Mossovet Theater, collaborated with Partnership 814 and the A. Kazantsev and M. Roshchin Center. The theater beau monde started talking about Mukhina after the role of Lekha in the production of “Plasticine” by Kirill Serebrennikov.
With the play “Twelfth Night,” directed by Declan Donnellan, Sergei Mukhin toured in Japan, Australia, Colombia and other countries. The actors on stage spoke Russian, and the translation was in a crawl, which did not bother the audience - the production made an impression.
Movies
Sergei Mukhin made his debut in an episode of the film “Don’t Even Think” in 2003. Then filming took place in the series “Farewell Echo”, “Doomed to Become a Star”, “Cursed Paradise”, “Capital of Sin”.
Sergei was greatly influenced by Yevgeny Serov’s film “The Cranes Will Cry,” in which the actor played the main role. In an interview with the press, the Russian artist said that it was interesting to play a person who lives life completely, and not a small segment of it. According to viewers and film critics, the poignant drama about the love of a Chechen girl and a Russian officer became the best in the actor’s filmography.
Later, the performer’s piggy bank was replenished with melodramas “Golden Scissors”, “I Blinded Him”, “Age of Love”. Mukhin appeared in leading roles everywhere. In 2014, with the participation of Sergei, the detective series “Moscow Greyhound” started showing. The artist played a police captain in the film. After 4 years, the 2nd season of the project was filmed. Next were the rating projects “Fortune Cookies” and “Fern Flower”.

Mukhin categorically refuses to participate in television shows, comparing entertainment programs with fast food. Fans call the actor one of those few artists who are fighting for morality in Russian cinema.
In 2020, Sergei played in the films “The Age of Love” and “Uneasy Happiness,” and on April 22, 2017, the melodrama “Fire, Water and Rusty Pipes” premiered. The film tells the story of Katerina Udaltsova (played by Marina Denisova), an energetic provincial woman who lives in Moscow and runs a business.
However, due to problems, she has to return to her hometown. Here she occupies the post of head of the housing complex, and former classmates Vasily (Sergei Mukhin) and Alevtina (Zoya Antonova) are subordinate to her. The series added to Mukhin's audience sympathies.
