Carier start

Vera Novikova was born in 1958. In 1979 she graduated from the school. Schukin (the course of VK Lvova and E.R. Simonov). In the same year she was admitted to the Vakhtangov Theater and immediately engaged in popular productions. In the 80 years she played in such productions as: "Rus! Bravo !, Little Tragedies, Wounded, Ladies and Hussars, True Memory, Princess Turandot, Mystery Buff, and others.

In addition, the actress was very active in the cinema. Her most famous tapes of the time were: "Close Range", "Ring from Amsterdam", "Krosha Vacation" and "Donkey's Skin". All the heroines she embodied were different, but they were united by spontaneity and genuine charisma.

Acquaintance with Zhigunov

In 1984, Vera Novikova, whose biography is represented in this article, starred in the film "Chance". She got the role of Shurochka, a female student of the pedagogical university. And for the role of Alexander Gubin was chosen young and little-known Sergei Zhigunov. Needless to say, that the shooting in this picture has become fatal for them.

At that time, Vera Novikova was already quite famous. Besides, she already had unsuccessful relations over her shoulders, and now she was a single mother. Therefore, the actress did not take seriously the courtship of the ardent and young Zhigunova. For her, this was an ordinary film novel, which in most cases does not lead to anything. In addition, the future of the young man was very vague. Sergei was not serious, he was recently expelled from the school. But Zhigunov was eloquent and persuaded Novikov in quick glory.

After the end of the shootings, their relationship continued only because of Sergey's insistence. He persistently sought the hand of the Faith for two years. In the end, everything ended with a wedding, although the daughter of the actress - Nastya - began to call Sergei Pope long before this event. A few years later, the couple had a girl named Mary.

The 90s

With the birth of Masha, Vera Novikova began spending more time at home, which suited Zhigunova. In addition, a serious crisis broke out in the cinematograph, and the actress for several years fell out of the filming process. And things in the theater were not very good.

The end of the 90s and 2000s

At this time there was only one successful picture, in which Vera Novikova appeared. The actress perfectly coped with the role of the heroine of the film "Naked." Action film was in the attic of a non-residential house, where the model and photographer were raised three times. Each time they experienced a new situation, perceiving it in a new way: reality and fantasy, lies and sincerity, violence and tenderness ... The picture was well received by specialists. At the festival "Faces of Love" Novikova received a prize for this role.

The rest of the paintings with Vera's participation went unheeded. In the theater, the most successful performance was the play "Uncle's Dream", where Vera performed the role of Felisata Mikhailovna.

Wanting self-realization, the actress opened a theater club in 2005 and became less and less at home. Zhigunov did not like this and greatly upset him. At that time, he was just experiencing a rise in popularity due to participation in the series "My Fair Nanny." The main character there played little-known then Anastasia Zavorotnyuk.

Divorce

The relationship of the characters in the picture was transferred to real life. In 2007, Sergey divorced and went to Zavorotnyuk. In the present situation, Vera Novikova, whose photo is attached to the article, behaved very nobly and dignifiedly. None of her interviews had negative statements about her ex-husband.

Return of Zhigunov

The marriage of Sergei and Anastasia lasted only 2 years. Then they parted, and Zhigunov returned to his ex-wife. Sergei obviously had feelings, since he and Vera were not tied up by small children, common affairs or housing issues. Having drunk for courage, Zhigunov again made Novikova an offer, and she agreed. The marriage was registered in October 2009.

New works

In 2007, Rimas Tuminas became the head of the Vakhtangov Theater and brought him to the leading positions not only in Moscow, but throughout the country. In 2008, several premieres took place. One of the most striking was the production of "Women's Beach", full of amazing songs Marlene Dietrich. The halls were always full. Vera Novikova embodied in this performance the image of Peter.
