Solomin Health Update: The Artist Remains in Hospital as Family and Colleagues Monitor His Condition

The statement from Maly Theater director Tamara Mikhailova indicates that it is premature to discuss any dismissal or formal changes concerning People’s Artist of the USSR Yuri Solomin. In her account, Solomin remains hospitalized, and his condition has not shown any noticeable shifts since the latest updates. She emphasized that there is no fresh information to report, whether positive or negative, at this moment. Solomin was taken to a hospital on November 6 after an incident in the courtyard of his Moscow residence, when a driver summoned an ambulance following an accident near his home. By November 14, reports circulating on the Mash Telegram channel suggested that he had developed bilateral pneumonia, which added concern to observers and colleagues alike. On November 17, Mikhailova provided an update noting that Solomin’s limbs had started to respond again, though he remained in hospital and under careful medical care. She described his overall status as stable, yet serious, underscoring that the situation required continued medical monitoring. Born in Chita on June 18, 1935, Yuri Solomin has long been associated with the Shchepkin Higher Theatre School, where he has taught acting since 1961. His career in front of the camera encompasses nearly sixty films and television series, and in 1988 he was honored with the title of People’s Artist of the USSR. In other health news, Mikhail Boyarsky was discharged from a hospital after a heart attack, a development noted by observers and fans who follow the experiences of prominent performers in the arts community.
