Ivan is one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Jean Foucher) of the 2017 action comedy film The Hitman's Bodyguard.
He is the loyal right-hand man of the Belarusian dictator Vladislav Dukhovich and the second-in-command of his secret police, and is tasked with hunting down Darius Kincaid and kill him so he can ensure that Dukovich's crimes would not be exposed.
He is portrayed by Yuri Kolokolnikov.
Biography[]
Dukhovich explained that he came from a life of poverty and had worked all of his life to make something of himself. This gave him the belief that it could excuse him to do whatever he wants. After becoming President, Dukhovich ruled the country with an iron fist, to which he executed people who disobeyed him, including Professor Asimov's family right in front of him. He would even imprison people and send them to concentration camps to force their compliance, including Asimov who was spent three years there.
At some point, Dukhovich tried to hire hitman Darius Kincaid to kill his political rival who was exiled in the United Kingdom and was also a human rights activist. Kincaid refused to accept the assignment for two reasons: he learned that Dukhovich's rival had children and it reminded him of losing his own father whom that he was close to as a child; and, unbeknownst to Dukhovich, he was horrified after secretly overhearing Dukhovich order his secret police led by him and Ivan, to massacre a village full of innocent people. Kincaid took photographic evidence of the massacre and installed them to his computer to use as evidence against him.
The next day, Dukhovich learns from his Chief Lieutenant, Ivan that they have Kincaid's bodyguard Michael Bryce and orders him to wait for Kincaid at the Hague. Ivan does so and attempts multiple times to kill Bryce and Kincaid. Ivan attempts to kill them while at the Hague and was able to capture Bryce, but he escapes leading to a foot chase in the streets of the Hague. As Ivan chases Bryce into stores and restaurants, he meets his end when Bryce strangles him with chains and shoots him into the lower torso.
