Danil Akutin – biography, photos, personal life, height and weight 2021

Childhood and youth

Danil Sergeevich Akutin was born on September 21, 1998 in Yekaterinburg. Danil decided on his future profession back in the fifth grade - he was seriously interested in classes in the acting club. After graduating from school, Akutin went to Moscow to try his hand at the entrance exams to a theater university.

While still at school, Danil became interested in acting.

Talent and self-confidence helped the charming young man conquer teachers. Having bypassed several dozen competitors, the guy entered the Oleg Tabakov Theater School - one of the most famous theater schools in the country.

Theater and films

When Danil was studying at drama school, he was lucky enough to appear on the stage of the Anton Chekhov Moscow Art Theater: director Yan Klyata invited him to his “Macbeth”, and Alexander Molochnikov invited him to the utopia “The Shining Path. 19.17.”

“Oleg Tabakov saw all three of my performances at the first rehearsal for the audience. He was delighted with “19.14”, he liked “Rebels” less, and “19.17” led him to some general reasoning. He didn’t give me advice, but he said some words to the actors that strengthened and inspired them,” Alexander Molochnikov said in an interview.

In 2019, Akutin received the main role in “Children of the Raven” based on the fairy tale novel of the same name by Yulia Yakovleva at the Vsevolod Meyerhold Center, which was included in the long list of the Golden Mask award the following year.
