Brosnan to become US citizen...
Irish born actor Pierce Brosnan, star of three James Bond movies, has applied to become an American citizen.
Brosnan told the Sunday Express newspaper he had already started the naturalisation process and regretted not becoming a U.S. passport-holder in time to vote in the presidential elections.
"I would like to be an American. I've enjoyed my time here. It's a very, very fine country," he told the paper.
Fellow actor Anthony Hopkins, who grew up in Wales, provoked a storm of protest in the media when he became an American citizen in April this year.
Brosnan also said he would wed his long-term girlfriend Keely Shaye Smith next year, by which time his son, who was injured in a car accident near his California home in April, would be well enough to dance at the party.
Earlier last week, Brosnan accused Hollywood bosses of being lazy and unimaginative after they decided not to release his latest movie "Grey Owl" in US cinemas.
Brosnan was furious that the 20 million pound film went straight to the video market in the United States because distributors said they did not know how to market the picture.
He told BBC radio that Hollywood executives were "lazy and lacking in imagination" for not releasing the film, which tells the true story of Englishman Archie Belaney.
Belaney grew up in a cloistered and repressed Victorian home dreaming of becoming a Canadian Indian. As an adult he reinvented himself as the son of an Apache to help save the beaver and forests of Canada, and travelled the world preaching about environmental issues.
The film's director, Richard Attenborough, said he agreed with Brosnan's claims about Hollywood.
"It ("Grey Owl") does not have a sufficient scale, does not have sufficient special effects and does not demonstrate or illustrate either the pornography of violence or sex," the director said.
Asked by the BBC if he thought it would have got a distribution deal if there had been more fighting sequences or more explicit sex, Attenborough said: "Oh yes, there's no question".
