Ukraine blocked streaming of Game of Thrones episodes with Russian actor Yury Kolokolnikov due to security concerns, citing alleged ties to Russian state media.
Ukraine has blocked streaming of Game of Thrones episodes featuring Russian actor Yury Kolokolnikov after his designation as a national security threat in August, citing alleged ties to Russian state-funded productions.
The move led to the removal of his scenes from multiple international series, including The White Lotus, Tenet, and Kraven the Hunter, on Ukrainian platforms, with users now seeing a "content unavailable" message.
The State Film Agency directed distributors to remove affected titles, and discussions are underway with international streaming services.
Kolokolnikov, also a director and producer, has appeared in recent global projects like Caught Stealing and The Last Frontier.
This action is part of broader Western restrictions on Russian cultural figures since 2022, which Ukraine and other nations justify as security measures, while Moscow calls them "Russophobic censorship."
