Israel Claims Killing Of Iran Intelligence Minister; Tensions Escalate Amid War

Vlad Nikitiuk is opening up about filming ‘Double Stakes’, the Ukrainian action-crime series that was shot before the full-scale war in Ukraine. In his conversation with Associated Press from Kyiv, the actor said the project would have become an entirely different story if filmed after the invasion. Nikitiuk also spoke about boxing training for stunt work, his connection to the lead character, and why Ukrainian cinema needs stronger financial backing to tell more stories beyond war documentaries.
