Cosmonaut Oleg Novitsky, who made his acting debut in Klim Shipenko’s The Challenge, admitted that his daughters greatly appreciated his performance in the movie. He talked about it on his Neformat podcast.
“The girls appreciated a lot, especially the youngest. In the movie, when the operation started, he took my hand, pressed himself against himself and asked if he was hurting me. I tell him, “Don’t worry, it’s a movie.” He calmed down, but he is only 6 years old, so the reaction was very childish, ”Novitsky said.
The premiere of the movie “The Challenge” took place on April 20 – just two weeks after its release, the movie shot in space earned one billion rubles. In early August, the picture collected more than two billion rubles at the domestic box office.
