Jethro Skinner in one of the publications called “almost Russian Englishman” And this is not accidental, and in fact he is a theater actor, and the favorite of moviegoers became after the film "Plus One", shot in Russia by director Oksana Bychkova. By the way, for the role of Tom’s puppeteer, he received the Kinotavr prize in the nomination “Best Actor”.
Jethro Skinner was born in Glastonbury, England, where music festivals are held annually. He graduated from the Manchester School of Acting and for 10 years played in the theater of a variety of classical and modern heroes - from Shakespearean characters to George Bush. One of his favorite roles is the Master in the play based on Bulgakov’s novel The Master and Margarita. With this performance, the troupe came to Russia. As Skinner later told, in Europe, the performance was accepted without enthusiasm, since few people are familiar with Bulgakov’s work, but in Russia the performance was “with a bang.”
Jethro Skinner starred in several television series, however, without much success. For the roles of businessmen, politicians and other “solid people”, Skinner had the “wrong type” – a person who does not have confidence. Therefore, he was offered the roles of terrorists, murderers and other unsympathetic characters.
The acting profession is not super profitable and by the time Bychkova came to England to conduct casting, Skinner desperately needed money - his wife was preparing to give birth. The second motivation to take part in the filming
Plus One Skinner was interested in the “rapidly developing Russian cinema.” The actor “loved” the director, and the role of puppeteer Tom went to Skinner. According to the plot, the main character does not part with the doll - "glove", and by the way, as Gentry later noted, the doll made in advance turned out to be almost an exact copy of the actor. After filming, he took her home and gave her a daughter who was born in his absence. /
