 THE LAST KNIGHT: LEGACY 

FIRST TV SERIES IMAGES WITH KIRILL ZAYTSEV

This one will be hitting small screens in Russia sometime later this year, but we have first images from THE LAST KNIGHT: LEGACY series. The whole franchise of movies started back in 2017 and is now being turned into a series for television as well. The lead roles are played by Victor Khorinyak, Arina Rozhkova, Evelina Mazurina, Kirill Zaytsev and Yulia Peresild. The last two also appear in the separate film Finist, as legendary hero Finist and Baba Yaga, which will hit big screens in January as a spin off of the film saga and should not be mixed up with this TV series which will air on Start streamer.

THE EIGHT EPISODE TV SERIES
 takes place 20 years after the three previous parts of the movie franchise. Now 50-year-old Ivan (Viktor Khorinyak) lives in Belogorye with his family - wife Vasilisa (Alexandra Ursulyak) and two daughters, Marya (Arina Rozhkova) and young sorceress Sophia (Evelina Mazurina). A calm life in a fairy-tale country is disturbed by the sudden visit of the sorcerer Severin (Alexander Ustyugov) - the magician warns the heroes of the terrible disaster that should soon happen to them. Ivan's daughters will have to protect both realities from danger. While Mary will fight the evil in Belogorye, Sofia will go to the past - in Moscow in 2017, she will need to find a young Ivan who knows nothing about his magical roots. In order not to cause unnecessary suspicion, the young wizard will have to pretend to be an ordinary schoolgirl and go to the 11th grade of the Moscow school.

The movie will hit cinemas January 2025

We have a delightful first teaser for probably the most anticipated new family fairy tale adventure movie coming from Russia - FINIST: THE FIRST WARRIOR (Финист. Первый богатырь) in which our favourite of all mighty Russian hunksters, the blond grand prince himself Kirill Zaytsev is to return to the role of legendary Russian hero Sokol Finist! This epic movie adventure which is set to arrive in Russian cinemas January 2025 also starring Yulia Peresild, the first actress ever to shoot a film up in space, is basically a spin off or continuation of Russia's most popular epic saga The First Warrior, which had four ultra successful sequels previous years and will now focus on the first one among them all, Sokol Finist, from whom all legends and fairy tales begin and start.

 

  FINIST YASNIY SOKOL

 is the most famous hero of Belogorye, the strongest, most dexterous and most deserving. Well, and the most beautiful, of course. All other heroes look up to him, children want to be like him, and girls can't stop looking at him. And who could blame them? Finist is a real superstar. And he carefully protects and maintains this status. He needs more and more feats, he is simply obsessed with them. But there is a nuance. The practical benefit of the feat for Finist is no longer of decisive importance. Let's say, freeing a village from a herd of wild boars that tramples down crops is boring, uninteresting, futile: they won't spread tales about it, they won't admire it. But going to the end of the world, where Beauty is imprisoned in a tower, guarded by an unimaginable Beast, now that is a challenge.

 

 A GORGEOUS BABA YAGA

Beside our boo Kirill the Breathtaking, the cast also includes Russia's most beautiful female star Yulia Peresild who plays probably the most gorgeous Baba Yaga we have ever seen, with Fedor Dobronravov also in the ensemble alongside always funny Sergei Lavigin as Finist's assistant and right hand, albeit a very clumsy one, Meleha, and wildly handsome Fedor Gamaleya as some kind of Arabian or Persian prince or knight at least judging by the photos of him under a turban. Before this one arrives to the cinemas, TV Russia will also air, sometime later this year, an eight part television series THE LAST WARRIOR: LEGACY which is also set in the same world with Finist also taking part in the story. Check out the teaser below and tell us what you think.

DELIGHTFUL TRAILER FOR DISNEY'S RUSSIAN EPIC FANTASY ADVENTURE 'THE LAST KNIGHT' WITH VICTOR HORINYAK

   'THE LAST KNIGHT'

RUSSIAN FANTASY ADVEN- TURE

The only thing I have to show you this very boring end of the week is a fun and colourful trailer for Russian adventure movie THE LAST WARRIOR which mixes fantasy, action and comedy with Russian folklore and myths. Also known as THE LAST KNIGHT or Последний богатырь the movie hits Russian cinemas later this October with young Victor Horinyak in the lead role! I think it is the first movie produced by Russian Disney, but I'm not entirely sure.

  IN THE LAND OF BELOGORIE
The movie follows Ivan, an ordinary guy, who is transferred by chance from modern Moscow to a fantastic country Belogorie. This parallel world is populated by heroes of Russian fairy tales, magic is an integral part of everyday life, and controversial issues are resolved by battle with heroic swords. Unexpectedly, Ivan finds himself at the very centre of the struggle between light and dark forces, but it is unclear why the main role in the events is, according to everyone's opinion, prepared for him.
