     CHUDO YUDO   

FIRST IMAGES FROM RUSSIAN FAIRY TALE

As last month over in sweet mother Russia they have started with the production of new expensive fairy tale movie CHUDO YUDO I thought I should share the first images with you from the movie about the legendary dragon Chudo Yudo that guards the entrance into the Slavic underworld. He is a cunning shapeshifter and a master trickster, a dragon with multiple fire breathing heads. Sofia Lopunova, Mikita Voronov, Sergei Bezrukov, Victoria Isakova, our dearest Rinal Mukhametov, Alexander Semchev, Sergei Epishev and others star in the film that should land into Russian cinemas October 22nd 2026. The same team that worked on Little Humpback Horse is producing this one as well.

 

  WHAT IS THE STORY OF THE FILM?

The plot centers on Otrada (Sofia Lopunova), the daughter of powerful magicians Bolotnitsa (Viktoria Isakova) and Chernogor (Sergei Bezrukov). On Otrada's coming of age, it is discovered that she has been deprived of the magical powers she was supposed to have inherited from her parents. To remedy the situation, the young sorceress urgently needs to find a lover in the human world and marry him. Along with Otrada, her mysterious friend, Chudo-Yudo (Mikita Voronov), who can transform into anyone: a bird, an animal, and even a handsome prince, sets off into the human world.

COSTUME DRAMA IMAGES

Russia is really preparing a lot of historical dramas right now and we can expect a lot of new series from the genre coming to the small screens later this year. Among them is one that I mentioned a few weeks ago but today I have exclusive first images from the sets of PURE (Чистые) historical series fromfamous Russian director and producer Fedor Bondarchuk who also stars in it. This eight episode costume drama stars one of our most favourite of the Russian actors, super charismatic Rinal Mukhametov in the ensemble that also includes Mark Eidelshtein, Anton Filipenko, Evgeniy Koryakovskiy, Danil Vorobev and our old friend Nikita Kologriviy from enchanting Russian fairy tale Wish of the Fairy Fish.

THIS PERIOD SET SERIES

will take us back to Petersburg, 1903. A world of luxury and leisure for men, a world of fear and submission for women. Kseniya (Sofia Sinitsina) and Stesha (Diana Milyutina) work in an underground brothel under the control of a pretty and ruthless lady. Girls sell men their bodies, feelings, flirting and the illusion of love. It seems they have nothing but beauty. In fact, they have access to a secret power - purity of soul and desire for freedom. And with this power they can change everything. Stay tuned as I will give you the first trailer as soon as they release it later this year.

  AND IN TANGO SERIES

Rinal will also star next to Catherine the Great's Yuliya Snigir in TANGO series where she plays Nora, a successful businesswoman with a steely grip not only in work, but also in family relationships. The ideally built system of her life collapses when her beloved husband Vanya suddenly dies. The news of death is accompanied by no less shocking information: Vanya had a "second life." He not only cheated on his wife, but also secretly practiced tango - a passionate dance that is the complete opposite of a clear and structured life with Nora. Trying to understand what happened, Nora herself goes to a tango school, which at first seems to her to be a meeting place for people with low social responsibility. But in the end, it is this colorful world that changes Nora beyond recognition: she will go from a woman with an iron grip to a free and tender dancer.
