Washington [US], April 30 (ANI): The South East European Film Festival (SEEfest) in Los Angeles will honour Arnold Schwarzenegger with the Legacy Award on the opening night of its 20th edition.
Schwarzenegger, a renowned actor, clean energy advocate, and former governor of California, will be recognised for his contributions to the film industry and his commitment to promoting a cleaner and greener future, Deadline has confirmed.
SEEfest’s board of directors praised Schwarzenegger’s determination and relentless optimism in building a better future for the new generation.
