Adapted by Assayas and award-winning writer Emmanuel Carrère from Giuliano da Empoli's 2022 novel, The Wizard of the Kremlin is inspired by the career of Putin's real-life long-term advisor and spin doctor, Vladislav Surkov.

'I knew nothing about the process that brought Putin to power – and I found it utterly compelling,' Assayas says in his director's notes. 

'I was unaware of Vladislav Surkov, who served as one inspiration for Baranov, even though the two men cannot be mistaken for one another. Surkov is obnoxious; our Baranov, while complicit in the worst actions of the regime and somewhat perverse, retains a certain humanity.'

The director also praised Paul's performance, highlighting the actor's nuance and attention to detail. 

He said: 'With Paul, every take is right – and in some way, each one tells a slightly different story, as if his work consisted in offering the director a kaleidoscope of choices that spans the entire emotional range of the scene.' 

The Wizard of the Kremlin is slated for release on January 21, 2026.
