Michael Kane because of the terrorists changed his name in the passport

The well-known British actor Michael Kane decided to change his real name and name, which he spelled out in his passport. This decision of the Briton was prompted by the difficult situation with emigrants, which developed in Europe.

I'm tired of explaining who I am!

Early in his career, young actor Maurice Joseph Miklvayt decided to take a pseudonym and began to call himself Michael Kane. It is under this name that millions of fans know it. And if different names do not embarrass them at all, the passport control workers at airports make this situation completely identify. Here is what the actor told The Sun about this situation:

"Imagine, I'm coming to the counter at the airport, and I'm greeted by staff:" Hi Mike Kane! ". Then they take my passport and see another name. Of course, this is embarrassing. Here begins the test, not only me, but all my luggage. The situation worsened when the whole world learned who terrorists of the "Islamic state" were, and Europe increased control over emigrants. I'm all very confused and frustrated with this. I'm tired of explaining who I am! The last time I spent at the airport was more than an hour, and I had to hurry, because I had an appointment. That's why my pseudonym will now be written in the passport. I hope, after this, I will no longer be detained while passing through passport control. "

In 1954, on the advice of his agent, Maurice Joseph Miquelwait decided to change the name to a shorter and more sonorous one, one that could easily be remembered by the viewer. In one of his interviews the actor told how he changed his name:

"At that time there were no mobile devices yet, and someone had to call to go to the phone in the booth. I called the agent and said I wanted to be Michael Scott, but he replied that there was already an actor with that name. Looking around, I saw that at the Odeon cinema there was a picture of Kane's Rise. At that moment, I realized that I would be Michael Caine, and the agent approved my decision. "

The filmography of Sir Kane is very extensive and has more than 100 feature films. He twice - in 1987 and 2000 - was awarded the Oscar and three times he received the Golden Globe. Not so long ago, Michael Kane was in the top ten most cash actors of all time.
