Sergey Saleev

The actor passed away on November 1, but the press became aware of this only two weeks later. The body of the 48-year-old artist was found in the bathroom. The preliminary version of Saleev's death was alcohol poisoning.

According to the actor’s relatives, Lately he suffered from lack of creative demand and, as a consequence, lack of money.

Shortly before his death, Saleev went on a drinking binge and left a post on Facebook that his friends found strange:

Life is the best that is given to such uncontrollable idiots like us, who give the “idlers” in the hall the best, most intimate, true, without demanding anything in return. Glory to the profession, glory, glory to the actors!!!

Initially, Saleev played in the theater, but when he moved from Yekaterinburg to St. Petersburg, the stage did not work out for him. He began playing maniacs, victims, monsters and recognizable movie characters in quests.

TV viewers know him from his roles in the TV series " Sea Devils. Smerch-3”, “It happened in Gavrilovka”.

Egor Klinaev

He received his driver's license five months before the tragedy. On social networks, Yegor boasted of his rights. Then no one suspected that it was the road that would take his life.

The star of the television series “Fizruk” admitted that he sees himself in 10 years “forever young, in demand, with inexhaustible ideas, with a beautiful wife and two children.”

The doctors brought her into the hospital. The actress died two weeks later without regaining consciousness.

Later, the media began to write that one of the reasons for her early death was “lack of demand in the profession and loneliness.” After “The Return of Mukhtar,” they stopped filming Yunnikova, since the directors saw her only in the image of investigator Vasilisa.

It is worth noting that before her death, she still managed to take part in the filming of the series “Ivanovs-Ivanovs,” but since not all the episodes were filmed before Yunnikova’s death, the director decided to remake the material, changing the actress.

American Kazimir Liske became famous in Russia thanks to the TV series “Interns.” He played the role of a loving English patient.

In our country, Kazimir gained not only creative success, but also family. In 2016, he and his wife Polina Grishina-Liske had a son, Oliver.

The actor died in April of this year. He was taken to a Moscow hospital, where the 35-year-old artist died from injuries incompatible with life.

Kazimir’s wife and close friend, artistic director of the Praktika theater Ivan Vyrypaev, called the actor’s death an accident.

Caz was experiencing severe mental instability. This can be called a disease. He came home at one in the morning and talked to Polina. No one saw any signs of panic or mental instability in him... And we are all sure that he did not want to do this at all, it was just that the illness and mental state, which he suppressed and hid even from his loved ones, pushed his body into the sky, Vyrypaev wrote.

In addition to the series “Interns,” actor Liske starred in films such as “Ivan the Terrible” and “Capital of Sin.”
