Viktoriya Maslova

Viktoriya Maslova is a Russian theater and film actress. Born into a family of actors. Later the family moved to the city of Shakhty, Rostov region. She performed her first role - the Golden Chicken - at the age of 4, when she still couldn't even read, and at the age of 14 she played Chekhov's Nina Zarechnaya. The actress parents were invariably strict with their daughter, constantly demanding that she work on herself and teaching her to be demanding of herself. From an early age, Viktoriya had no doubt that she would become an actress. She attended music school and did rhythmic gymnastics for three years. During her school years she played on the stage of the Shakhty Plast Theater.

Viktoriya calls her mother, Natalya Maslova, her first and most important teacher. As the actress said, it was thanks to her mother that she passed the casting for her first role in the 2002 film Lyubovnik (2002) by Valeriy Todorovskiy. After school, she went to enroll in Moscow, at the Moscow Art Theater School, with Oleg Tabakov, but when he did not teach the course, she did not want to study there. Then her mother took her to Yaroslavl. At first, the girl didn't like it there; she even packed her things to return to Shakhty. But her mother convinced her to stay. In 2006 she graduated from the Yaroslavl State Theater Institute. Since 2007 - actress of the Moscow Sphere Theater.

After moving to Moscow, she has been actively acting in films since 2007. The actress gained wide fame and popularity after the main role in the TV series Ne zhenskoe delo (2013), in which she played Major Olga Kirsanova.
