Biography

A native of the western Serbian city Užice,[7] he graduated from the Faculty of Dramatic Arts, University of Arts in Belgrade in the class of Biljana Mašić.[8] He was hired as a member in the Boško Buha Theatre upon graduation. He performed in the theatre from 2005 to 2010, and has accomplished lead roles in plays such as Othello, As You Like It, The Brothers Karamazov, Three Sisters, In Agony, Tartuffe, Metamorphosis and Les Précieuses ridicules,[9] presenting himself well in comedic and dramatic roles.[10] He has also performed as a guest in several European theatres, including theatres in North Macedonia, Croatia, Germany, the United Kingdom, Italy, Greece, Bosnia and Herzegovina and Romania.[11][12][13]

He has won two Emperor Constantine (Car Konstantin) awards, one for Pogled u nebo and one for Offenders. He has received critical acclaim for his starring role in MioDrag.[14] He won the Dr. Branivoj Đorđević Award in 2010.[15] He has won three prominent JDP Theatre Awards, in 2009, 2011 and 2016.[16][17][18]

His first prominent television role came with the comedic, rural portrayal of aggressive loner Siledžija Mića in the popular Serbian television series Ljubav, navika, panika, with Zijah Sokolović and Gorica Popović in supporting roles.

He is widely known for his role as Radisav Risović Ris in the successful television series Vojna akademija (2012-2017), and the films Vojna akademija (2012) and Vojna akademija 2 (2013), all successful within critic circles and the box-office.[19] He portrayed Prince Paul of Yugoslavia in the Dragan Bjelogrlić-directed cult televised series Shadows over Balkan.

Alongside fellow actor and close friend Jakov Jevtović, Vujović directed, conceived and starred in the commercially successful comedy mini-series Komunalci, as gaffe-prone and corrupt police officer Gaga. His role was widely lauded by numerous critics, including Slava Teslić and Milivoj Jukić, the latter of which calling his performance "a cultural comedic milestone".[20]

He was nominated for an Apollo Award for his role as Srđan Kalember in the cult 2015 sports drama film We Will Be the World Champions, directed by Darko Bajić.

His distinct,[21] firm tenor-baritone voice[22] has led him to voice numerous characters for Serbian-language versions of prominent animated feature films.[23] His Serbian dub voice acting credits include Bloat in the Finding Nemo franchise, Donkey in the Shrek film series and Oscar in Shark Tale.[24][25] He also voiced Leonardo in the Serbian version of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film.
