Sergei Vladimirovich Bodrov (Russian: Серге́й Влади́мирович Бодро́в, IPA: [sʲɪrˈɡʲej bɐˈdrof]; born 28 June 1948) is a Russian film director, screenwriter, and producer. In 2003 he was the president of the jury at the 25th Moscow International Film Festival.

Life and career

Bodrov was born in Khabarovsk, Russian SFSR, Soviet Union (now Russia). In the post-Soviet period he emigrated to the United States. His son, actor Sergei Bodrov, Jr. was killed in an avalanche in the mountains of the North Caucasus on 20 September 2002, while shooting a film titled The Messenger.

Bodrov's paternal grandmother was an ethnic Buryat, which influenced his decision to make the movie Mongol.

Bodrov currently has an apartment in Los Angeles and a ranch in Arizona. He is married to American film consultant Carolyn Cavallaro.

A case has been opened against Bodrov at the "Myrotvorets" website.
