The news will stun fans of the artist.
The star of “Truckers” Vladislav Galkin became famous as a child. He made his film debut in The Adventures of Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn, where he played one of the main roles. Attentive viewers might have noticed that in the credits he is listed as Vladik Sukhachev. This is the real name of the actor.
The artist’s father was not Boris Galkin at all, as many people think, but a completely different person. Almost nothing is known about Vladislav’s biological father. He was the husband of Elena Demidova, the mother of the actor, but the couple did not live together for long. When Vlad was ten years old, he was adopted by his stepfather Boris Galkin. He replaced the boy’s father and gave him his last name.
Over time, everyone forgot about the biological parent of the actor. However, in 2018, the news spread that Galkin’s own father had appeared. It turned out to be no Sukhachev, but a certain Georgy Cherkasov.
The man said that many years ago he had a short affair with Demidova. Already when Vladislav became famous, Cherkasov made calculations and came to the conclusion that Galkin could be his own son. But only after the death of the actor, he decided on this loud recognition.
