President Aleksandar Vucic handed the passport to Fiennes at a meeting Sunday in the Serbian presidency building in Belgrade. Vucic says "we Serbs are happy to have you as a friend and now a fellow citizen." Fiennes first came to Serbia in 2010 to shoot his directorial debut, an adaptation of William Shakespeare's "Coriolanus." Fiennes is currently filming a movie in Belgrade on Soviet ballet dancing legend Rudolf Nureyev. Fiennes also attended an inauguration ceremony for Vucic in June. American action hero Steven Seagal is among other film celebrities who have been granted Serbian citizenship in the past. http://www.nhregister.com/entertainment/article/British-actor-director-Fiennes-gets-his-Serbian-12224295.php -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "serbia" group.
