From the series “The King and the Jester”Screenwriter Dmitry Lemeshev, who wrote the screenplay for the TV series “The King and the Jester”, explained why the screen image of Gorshka does not fully correspond to his real prototype – the leader of the punk band of horror Mikhail Gorshenev.
According to Lemeshev, while working on the script, he spoke with many people Gorshok played with in the same band. And each of them had their own opinion about the musician.
“And the Pot is already a myth in general. And now reading the angry reviews they say they showed a drug addict and so on, I would like to say that if we really showed Pot what he was, everyone would crumble to the ground, because it was a really serious addiction that also affected the band, and on him,” quotes Lemeshev “Free Press” .
The interlocutor of the publication pointed out that the Pot struggled with his vices, and the creators of the series could not fail to mention this. The musicians themselves, he says, are serious guys living in a serious world that influenced them.
