Hollywood superstar Patrick Swayze arrived in Bulgaria late on Friday night.

The famous movie star will take part in a US spy film that will be shot in Sofia.

Upon his arrival in Sofia Swayze, accompanied by his wife, said that he was very happy to be in Bulgaria. We found out that the Bulgarians were very nice people, and also beautiful, so I am proud and happy to be here, the actor said.

The Hollywood superstar will spend nine weeks in Bulgaria. Patrick Swayze will have to celebrate his 52nd birthday in Sofia.

After playing in the Broadway production of "Grease", he made his film debut as Ace in Skatetown, U.S.A. (1979). Eight years later, after considerable movie and television work, including choreography for Grandview, U.S.A. (1984), he received a Golden Globe nomination for his role as the dance instructor Johnny Castle in the steamy musical-drama Dirty Dancing (1987).

He received a second nomination for his portrayal of the ghost Sam Wheat in the boxoffice/video success Ghost (1990). He has been a solidly established box office star throughout the nineties.
