The most popular role being Yeshua in the production of Yuri Lyubimov Master and Margarita.[6]

In his film career, the main director considers Mikhail Schweitzer, who starred in three films - Little Tragedies, Dead Souls and Kreutzer Sonata. However, the most popular role was played by the role of Cardinal Richelieu in the three-part musical film D'Artagnan and Three Musketeers, although initially he had to play in this picture the episodic role of the English fanatic Felton.[7][8][9][10]

Currently, Aleksandr Trofimov periodically invited to act in films for small roles, he is one of the leading actors of the Taganka Theater, he goes with the theater on tour outside the country.[11] Since there are no serious film roles for the artist over the past few years, actor almost always refuses to interview, not including the need to tell only about the past works.[3]
