Russia's space agency Roscosmos is dispatching the 36-year-old screen star next month to the International Space Station (ISS) along with director Klim Shipenko, 38, in the race against time to beat a parallel US project.
The 12-day mission was announced in September last year, four months after a Hollywood project involving actor Tom Cruise was unveiled.
The Russian mission will begin on October 5.
