Chulpan Khamatova and Semyon Serzin became infected with Petrovs' flu
In 2018, the novel "The Petrovs in and around the Flu" made a lot of noise. This work made the writer Alexei Salnikov a laureate of two literary prizes - "Natsbest" and "NOS", and made film producers alarmed and urgently start looking for money to adapt the novel for large screens. In May this year it became known that Kirill Serebrennikov was filming Petrovs, and the film itself would be the result of the joint work of four countries at once - USA, France, Germany and Switzerland. According to journalists, shooting has finally begun in Moscow, and Chulpan Khamatova and Semyon Serzin are involved in the project.According to the source, Chulpan Khamatova will play Nurlynis Petrova, and Semyon Serzin will play Petrova Sr. The film was directed by Vladislav Opelyants (State Counselor, Selfie), and the art director was Vladislav Ogay (Abigail, Baravva). The film is produced by Hype Film (Blockbuster, The Apprentice, Summer).   “It is very rare that there are books that you immediately want to stage in the theater or make films on. Salnikov's novel is exactly that case. This text provokes fantasy. The novel is paradoxical. It has a lot of interesting shape-shifters, time layers, exact human types and mythologemes, it has a lot of humor. I tried to keep all this in the script as well. We managed to assemble a brilliant and unexpected acting ensemble ", - quotes Serebrennikov in the press service of Hype Film. The film about the Petrovs, who got the flu, will be released in theaters in 2020, and not only in USA: the rights to show the film have already been sold to key European countries.
