Yura Borisov is the first Russian actor to be nominated for an Academy Award since Mikhail Baryshnikov for The Turning Point in 1978 .

The 32-year-old has earned his first Oscar nomination for playing Igor , Anora ’s taciturn bodyguard of sorts.

Anora won the Palme d’Or at Cannes Film Festival and unofficially began its Oscar campaign.

Borisov says there was a translator on set, but that ultimately he didn’t feel like he needed one.

With Baker ’s help, Borisov went “very, very back” when filling in the details of Igor 's life before Ani comes hurtling into it.

The final scene was the most difficult part of the shooting process for Borisov .
