Interesting facts

  • Budget: $7.8M

Lucky Trouble is a 2011 Russian comedy film, directed by Levan Gabriadze in his directorial debut.

Production

Initially the project was called Kolotilov. The film was not initially planned to be a romantic comedy, but the screenplay was altered at the late stage of production, when Milla Jovovich agreed to act in the film. Jovovich said in an interview that she agreed to act in the film because of her friendship with Ivan Urgant. Her scenes took ten days to film.

Russian-speaking Milla Jovovich voiced her role herself, and it was her first role in the language. Although half Russian, Jovovich moved to London as a child, which made her main language English, so she had some difficulties with learning her lines. Her mother, Galina Loginova, also appears in the film. She plays Galina Alexandrovna, Nadya's mother.

Most of the film was shot in Yeysk, Krasnodar Krai.

The first letters of the names of the actors who played in the film starring (Khabensky, Urgant, Jovovich) form an obscene word in Russian. In one of the trailers of the film, this is visible. For this reason, many cinemas refused to show the film's trailer.
