Sean Stone, son of Oscar-winning director Oliver Stone, has reportedly converted to Islam while shooting a film in Iran, according to AFP.
"The conversion to Islam is not abandoning Christianity or Judaism, which I was born with. It means I have accepted Mohammad and other prophets," Stone said.
The filmmaker converted to Islam in the central Iranian city of Isfahan, according to the AFP report.
Sean Stone, 27, hails from a mixed faith family; his father is Jewish, while his mother is Christian.
Iran's Fars news agency reported that Stone became a Shiite and adopted the name Ali.
