In the novel, Prevlov was described as a
well-proportioned, handsome man sporting a layered hairstyle and a
modishly trimmed moustache and intense gray eyes. He was also the
Russian intelligence officer employed by the Soviet Navy's Department of
Foreign Intelligence.
In the film, Prevlov is
portrayed as a chief intelligence officer at the Russian Embassy in
Washington, D.C. Again, the writers and the producers of the film
didn't give Bo much room to help develop his character.
Below is a brief description entirely excerpted from
the press kit that was released to the press before the film initial
release.
BO BRUNDIN, cast in the leading role of
Captain Andre Prevlov, chief intelligence officer attached to the
Soviet Embassy in Washington, D.C., is seen as a smooth, well-groomed,
cultured antithesis of the cliché enemy spy.
Brundin is a product of stage, films and television in Sweden.
His performance in "A Baltic Tragedy" helped to win two gold medals
when it was selected at the Chicago Film Festival of 1970 as the best
foreign film and the best screenplay.
In the U.S., Brundin has played leading
roles in "Meteor," "Santa Fe," "The Great Waldo Pepper," and "Russian
Roulette." On television, his credits include the feature film,
"Swan Song," and "Centennial," "The Word," "The Rhinemann Exchange"
and Rich Man, Poor Man," all top mini-series.
