Source-derived summary

Pyotr Anatolyevich Krasilov (Russian: Пётр Анато́льевич Краси́лов; born 3 June 1977) is a Russian film and theater actor.

Biography

Pyotr Krasilov was born in Balashikha near Moscow. His family consisted of mostly Putilov company employees, dispatchers, railway workers. His mother worked for a while in the circus, in the personnel department.

In 1999 he graduated from the Mikhail Shchepkin Higher Theatre School. Then for a while he worked in the Russian Army Theatre and then in Lenkom. But Krasilov did not stay long in either place. Pyotr did not get major roles immediately, but soon he received a proposal from the Academic Youth Theatre.

The first role of Pyotr Krasilov in film was Mikhail Repnin in the series Poor Nastya (2003).

He appeared in the third season of ice show contest Ice Age (with Oksana Grishuk).

Editorial summary

This brief starts where responsible research should: with the source description of “Pyotr Krasilov” as russian actor. Everything that follows is an evidence route, not borrowed authority.

Editorial reviewA useful biographical orientation record, particularly for establishing names, roles and a first chronology. The current lead gives the account dated anchors—1977, 1999, 2003—that can be checked directly. The linked authority record independently contributes the date 1977-06-03. The account is most persuasive where Pyotr, Krasilov and Russian can be independently traced.
Editorial analysis

Why this record matters

The subject matters to the people & ideas register because the source frames it as russian actor. Its deeper value depends on whether names, dates, institutions and citations support that framing.

Evidence profile

The entry’s evidential value lies in the named roles, institutions and publications that can be tested against primary documentation. The source revision retrieved here is dated Jan 26, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q247997. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 1 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 1977, 1999 and 2003.

Critical limits

Public reputation and documentary evidence do not always develop together; absence from a summary is not evidence of historical absence. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.

How to read it

Read biographical claims against dates, named institutions and the cited references. Distinguish a subject’s later reputation from evidence produced during their lifetime.
