Director Baranov told RT about working on a film about Zhirinovsky

“They just offered me (to make a film. -

). And since I treated him, Zhirinovsky, very well, he is also my fellow countryman, so why not agree? We are just at the beginning of our journey, the script is currently being finalized,” said Baranov.

He also noted that it will not be easy for the actor chosen in the future to play the founder of the Liberal Democratic Party.

“We have to think and look for actors. Because I honestly don’t yet know who could play it from those I know. It will be difficult, very difficult. Because there is a trap here: if you copy Zhirinovsky, there will be a parody, and if you don’t copy, then there will be no Zhirinovsky. This is the problem, we need to look for an option on how to do it,” explained RT’s interlocutor.

Earlier, a new postage stamp appeared in Russia with the image of the founder of the LDPR, Vladimir Zhirinovsky, who passed away in April 2022.
