The three-time Oscar-winning writer, director and producer has more than 20 feature film credits, including Born On The Fourth Of July and Platoon.
His recent work includes Edward Snowden biopic Snowden and The Putin Interviews, a four-part series with US network Showtime in which he interviewed Russian president Vladimir Putin.
As previously reported, John Cleese will also receive an honorary Heart of Sarajevo at this year’s festival.
Sarajevo will also host a tribute to documentary filmmaker Joshua Oppenheimer (The Look Of Silence).
