Sergei Bodrov Jr.

The son of Russian director Sergei Bodrov - Sergei Bodrov Jr.'s career rocketed during the 1990s with roles in such films as Prisoner of the Mountains (1996) Brother (1997) and the Stringer - in which he co-starred with Anna Friel - (1998).

Born in Moscow on 27 December 1971, he became a cultural icon following his turn in Brother and cemented his status with that film's 2000 sequel. He moved into directing with the following year's Sisters.

Sergei's career was cut tragically short when on September 20, 2002, an avalanche killed him and much of his 46-person crew while on location in the Caucasus Mountains shooting his film The Messenger. He was 31.
