"It was with deep sadness that I received the news of the premature death of Marko Zivic, our great and talented actor. He achieved great things on our theatre and film scene, he was unique and one-of-a-kind, and there were many roles and characters we all hoped Marko would portray. Belgrade’s, Serbian and regional theatre and film scene have lost a grand acting master. My sincerest condolences to the family of Marko Zivic, his many friends and colleagues, and especially his Belgrade Drama Theatre, the place he presented with his biggest gift."
