Basically, viewers know him for episodic roles in the TV series SashaTanya, Univer, as well as in the films Travelers, Tumbler, Inhabited Island, etc. The most common image of an actor in comedies is an unlucky big guy.

School years

Sviridov Andrei Nikolaevich (height, weight see below) was born in Belarus (Mogilev) in 1975. The boy's mother worked as an accountant, and his father worked as a literature teacher. In addition to him, the younger sister Alena grew up in the family.

Even at school, the future actor stood out for his heroic growth. In the 5th grade, he was noticed by the coach of the local basketball team and invited to try his hand at this sport. At first, Andrei refused, but two years later he agreed. At the age of 14, the boy got into the youth team of Belarus. Sviridov connected his future exclusively with basketball. At the age of 19, he was already the champion of Europe, the CIS, the USSR (2 times) and bore the title of master of sports.

Moving to America

After such success, Andrey Sviridov,whose height and weight increased every year, decided to leave for America. There he entered the George Washington Institute and began to play on the local basketball team. After graduation, Andrey continued his postgraduate studies, but after 6 months he left everything, returned to Russia and focused on playing basketball. This was followed by a series of training, performances and victories. Sviridov's career was cut short by a serious injury. At 25, he found himself at a crossroads.

Second trip to the US

Andrey Sviridov, whose height and weight are known to all his fans, began to think about what to do next. He remembered his childhood dream - to become an actor - and decided to make it a reality. To do this, Andrey again left for the United States in order to receive an appropriate education. The young man entered one of the best schools in Los Angeles - Beverly Hills Playhouse, and after graduation he made contact with an acting agency.

But despite this, Andrei Sviridov, whose height and weight impressed directors, was not in great demand. His Hollywood career progressed rather slowly. Periodically, he appeared in music videos and advertisements for Halls and McDonald's. In 2004, Sviridov received a cameo role in the film "Stories from the Other Side". Participation in this project helped Andrey gain experience on the set. This did not go unnoticed, and in 2005 the actor was invited to play the lead role in a short film about fame and revenge called Theft. In the same year, Karen Hovhannisyan filmed the action movie “I Stay” in America and invitedto participate in Andrey's project. There Sviridov met one of the best Russian actors - Andrei Krasko. He considered the talent in the young man and advised him to build a career in his homeland. Andrey Sviridov, whose growth had already reached its maximum by that time, decided to follow the advice and returned to Russia.

At first, Andrei Sviridov, whose height is much higher than average, played two small roles - a security guard in Our Rush and a bandit in Happy Together. This made him recognizable.
