In 2025, in the wake of the success of a Russian actor who played in the Oscar -winning Anor, news about his future projects was encouraged in social networks. Among them are the roles of Vito Skalletta, Hitman, Professor X, Voldemort, Wilson Fisk and even Terminator. We checked these messages.
In early March, shortly after the Oscar award ceremony, the following posts were dispersed in VKontakte: “Officially: Yura Borisov will play Vito Skallett in the film adaptation of Mafia II. This will be a large -scale project that combines elements of criminal drama and historical reconstruction. The filming is expected to begin in the near future, and the premiere is scheduled for 2026. " In total, such messages gained about 1.7 million views. So, public told about this "Universe Marvel | DC"(629,000 views at the time of writing this analysis),"Cinema online"(402 000),"Multi -settlement madness"(257 000), Marvel / DC (twice: 175 000 And 25,000), Empire (153,000), “MARVEL / DC Universe” (twice: 24,000 And 12 000) And DR. On the Zen platform, for example, the blog shared this news Axxcid (6400 views).

After the release of the film "Anora»In 2024 Yura Borisovwho played the supporting role there, gained worldwide popularity. The actor secured his success several months later, when he was nominated for many prestigious awards, among which "Golden Globe"And even"Oscar". In the end, Borisov did not receive a figurine of the American film Academy, but during the presentation of the nominees Robert Dauni - the younger declaredthat the Russian actor is waiting for a bright future in the film industry.
Mafia II, which is mentioned in viral posts, is a computer game published in 2010 in the genre of an adventure action movie. Its action takes place in the middle of the 20th century in the fictional American city of Empire-Bay. The main character is Italian Vittorio Antonio (Vito) Skalletta, on behalf of which players perform different tasks. According to the viral news, the filming of the Mafia II film adaptation should be about to begin, but there are no reliable evidence on the network at least about the start of work on the project. Accordingly, no reputable movie publishing houses reported that Borisov got the role of Skalletta.
The primary source of this news is the above public on VKontakte under the name "Multi -settlement madness", To which a little more than 10,000 people are signed. There is a post about Borisov and the game Mafia II I went out March 1 at 06:40 Moscow time. Description of this community says: "All news [in this public] are taken from alternative realities." That is, the authors directly indicated that their news is satirical in nature (for example, like that of the publication "Panorama"). However, such posts, if they are encouraged on VKontakte, can also see those users who are not subscribed to this public and, accordingly, did not read its description, and therefore do not know that, by flipping the tape, they read the fable.
In an interview with “verified” the administrator of this public confirmed that the post of Borisov’s role in the film based on the game Mafia II is a fiction and that such publications are created according to a certain principle: the authors are looking for real pictures or shots with an actor (in rare cases a small photo process is used), on which he resembles certain characters, and then release a post about his new role. So, in the case of news about Mafia II, frame From the film "Silver Skates". In the spring of 2024, the authors of "multiverse madness" in a similar way came up with and Lailed the duck About another project that is allegedly preparing for filming - the adaptation of the series “Supernatural” with Nikita Kologriy and Ivan Yankovsky. Then the owners of large publics on VKontakte and Telegram channels, as well as some Russian federal media, led to it.
According to the internal search on the community page, the first invented post about the future role of Borisov I went out In "Multi -Seloen Madness" on November 23, 2024. Then it was reported that the star of the Anora and the Future Nominee for the Oscar will play the young Kevin Krammba in the series “23” on HBO, although the channel, of course, did not give a similar announcement. "[This] will be a prequel to the film"Split"2017, and [M. Knight] Shyamalan himself stares several episodes," the authors of the public wrote. Obviously, satirical news is based on the fact that Borisov is bald, and in the original picture Krammba was played by the shaved James Makeva. And although he did not become popular (he scored less than 2000 views), symbolic, that a series of blew out of the iconic anon It began with news about a project about a person with a multiple personality disorder.

January 23, 2025 It became knownThat Borisov is nominated for an Oscar in the category of “Best Male Role of the Supporting”, and shortly after that, a series of falsehoods about the actor in the “Multivelen Madness” continued. So, from January 28 to March 12, the public released 18 such records (including fake about Mafia II), many of which received coverage, sometimes at times (or even ten times) exceeding the number of its subscribers. At some point, posts about the actor began to come out so often that the public jokes for the sake Rename In "Yura Borisov and his filmography", and also changed the cover and the avatar (but soon they returned everything as it was).

These falsehoods of Borisov of varying degrees of virality and realism became such a chronological order (with the exception of the above):

It costs a dignity in a fictional one news From March 3 about the fake scandal. Supposedly due to violation of the procedure for calculating the voices of Kiran Kalkin, winner In the nomination “Best Male Role of the Supporting Plan”, Oscar was deprived of the Oscar, and according to the results of the “honest” recalculation, the American film academy presented the statuette Borisov. The post scored more than 205,000 views, while receiving a note on the alleged inaccurate information from VKontakte moderators. “Complaints are received against this entry, information in it can mislead. Take it with caution, ”says a warning from the social network.

When clicking on the "Read" button, the user is redirected to "Digital comfort center", Where he is offered to read about how" VKontakte "works with the content placed there. “Our role as a communication platform is to facilitate access to reliable information and limit the spread of potentially dangerous content that can be misleading,” is postulated at the beginning of the text.
“Completely fictional resonant news or fake scientific research is not always easy to distinguish from real ones. Their distribution sometimes leads to consequences even outside the Internet: it creates unjustified panic, artificially increases the demand for primary goods, pushes to treat serious diseases with methods harmful to health, provokes enmity and intolerance. We relate to the spread of just such information. ”
In one of the points Approvedthat the social network considers it important to warn users about possible misinformation, but emphasizes: “Humor, creativity and personal position on our platform are not modeled in any way until they have direct insults, threats or other sovereign violations of the rules. If such content is limited, then for another reason-not due to misleading. ” Later again specified: “Jokes, parodies, memes and other manifestations of a sense of humor, we also do not consider unreliable information and do not apply any measures for them.” Despite these statements, the satirical news of Borisov still received a dick of potential misinformation.
By statements social networks, her team checks every appeal from users who send complaints about posts who allegedly misleading. Moreover, it is stated that with the help of neural networks and other technologies, the platform itself conducts proactive monitoring of content. However, the invented news about the receipt of Oscar Borisov after the recalculation of the votes is the first case in a few years, when the editors of “verified” met a warning about possible disinformation on VKontakte. At the same time, we have repeatedly Found there Records with false informationwhich sometimes replicated on the social network years.
Also "VKontakte" reportsWhat is constantly improving approaches to the moderation of content and is working on new opportunities, which are allegedly helped users to recognize potentially inaccurate publications. However, the case with a dick on a post about Borisov shows that social networks are where to strive. For example, she could label the satirical communities with a special badge so that users did not immediately understand the public that this was a parody. After all, if the authors in the description of the page do not hide that they publish fictional news, then a warning about possible misinformation in only one post looks at least ridiculous.
