How did you get into Atanas Mihaylov’s film, and what is your role in “Cybercrime”?
I joined Atanas Mihaylov’s “Cybercrime” thanks to the Film Academy for Talents, where I am now in my second year of training. Atanas Mihaylov initially chose me for a role that was not particularly distinctive or prominent! Even so, I was happy because it was my first role (I also appeared in “Murda Boyz”, but only as an extra)!
After I went to the “Cybercrime” shoot and played the original role Nasko gave me, something wonderful and unexpected happened: the very next day, Atanas Mihaylov called and said he wanted to change my role and give me a bigger opportunity. He said he was pleased with my performance, liked me and had seen great “drive and desire in me”! Naturally, at that moment I was the happiest person in the world! (laughs) So my new role is now complete: I play a school principal, a role that lets me make my presence felt and act alongside Yavor Kolev, which is a great honour! I will not judge my performance; I am not the person who should do that.
As a first step into cinema (a baby learning to walk), I think I did well. I am ready for plenty of work, hard effort and enthusiasm for many more film roles, because I adore it!
The film premieres in autumn (October/November) in cinemas across Bulgaria! I urge everyone to watch it because it is based on true stories and is very much worth seeing!!!
I hear you recently became the face of a swimwear brand. Tell us more about this new role: which brand is it, how did you sign the contract and what is coming next?
Yes, I recently became the advertising face of swimwear and lingerie. The brand is NUXTA, made in Bulgaria and sold worldwide! This new role is also a dream come true (as is cinema). More shoots and interesting images lie ahead!
Where do you see yourself in 5 years? Will you continue acting?
Over the next 5 years, I hope for many leading film roles. I long to experience this art in immeasurable depth! I am continuing with acting 100%; I have so much undeveloped potential that I want to unfold, experience, immerse myself in and fulfil! I see myself on the big stage... but also on the small screen! :)
