The actor from the "gray list" after a long break will appear on The first channel

Channel One announced the screening of the film "Viking" by Andrei Kravchuk, starring Danila Kozlovsky. This is evidenced by the broadcaster's program.

The picture, which was released in 2016, will be shown on April 19 before the evening program "Time".

"This is a movie about a complex, sick, tragic, and at the same time happy feeling of love," Channel One quotes Kozlovsky.

As EADaily reported, in the spring of 2023, in one of the publications in his telegram channel, the head of the Federal Security and Anti-Corruption Project, Vitaly Borodin, called Kozlovsky a "traitor," emphasizing that he emigrated to the United States. The activist also appealed to the Prosecutor General's Office with a request to check the statements of the artist for compliance with the article on discrediting The Armed Forces of the Russian Federation, because, as Borodin pointed out, he criticized the special military operation.

Kozlovsky denied his departure, explaining that he regularly visits his daughter in the USA. The actor also noted that he does not have a second citizenship and continues to work at the Maly Drama Theater in St. Petersburg. The actor filed a lawsuit against Borodin for the protection of honor and dignity, which was supported by the court. Borodin appealed against this decision, but the Presnensky Court of Moscow in May last year left the previous ruling unchanged, the complaint was not satisfied.

Earlier, film critic Alexander Golubchikov said that, in his opinion, Kozlovsky does not appear in new projects, because he got into the so-called gray list of artists.

He recalled that the artist managed to refute rumors about his emigration in court, but it did not help his career.

"He defended his rights in court, but at the same time they still don't remove him and projects with him are frozen and put on the shelf," Golubchikov said.
