Oksana Sergeevna Akinshina (Russian: Оксана Сергеевна Акиньшина; born 19 April 1987) is a Russian actress. She is known for her roles in the films Sisters (2001), Lilya 4-ever (2002), The Bourne Supremacy (2004), Hipsters (2008) and Sputnik (2020).
Early life
[edit]Akinshina was born on 19 April 1987 in what was then Leningrad in Russia, then part of the Soviet Union. Her father is a car mechanic, and her mother is an accountant. She has a younger sister.[1][2] At the time she landed the role in Lilya 4-ever (2002), Akinshina only spoke Russian and communicated with director Lukas Moodysson with the help of Alexandra Dahlström as her interpreter.[3]
Career
[edit]Starting acting at age 12, Akinshina was discovered by Sergei Bodrov Jr. and made her screen debut in the Russian crime film Sisters (2001), Bodrov's directorial debut.[citation needed]
Her second film, Lilya 4-Ever (2001), earned her a 2002 European Film Award nomination for Best Actress. She lost, however, to the eight actresses of the film 8 Women (2002). For her role in Lilya 4-Ever, she also received the award for Best Actress in Leading Role from the Guldbagge Awards.[citation needed]
Since then, Akinshina has acted in the films Het Zuiden—directed by Martin Koolhoven—and The Bourne Supremacy (2004)—directed by Paul Greengrass.
Personal life
[edit]From 2007 to 2010, Akinshina was married to businessman Dmitry Litvinov,[4] with whom she has a son (born 2009). In 2012, Akinshina married film producer Archil Gelovani, with whom she has two children, a son and a daughter. The couple separated in 2018.[2]
