Antun’s film "General" was presented with 4.2 million by the Croatian Audiovisual Centre HAVC as financial funding for long length feature films. Produced and directed by Antun himself, this drama produced by Cyclops film is a biography of Croatia’s former general Ante Gotovina, which follows the life of the retired Croatian Army general from his childhood days to the present. The lead role was given to no other but Croatia’s most famous actor Goran Visnjic who has appeared in many Hollywood projects .

The life story of Ante Gotovina makes an excellent basis for an interesting movie. We are confident that the story put in the hands of Antun Vrdoljak will become the most watched film in the history of Croatian cinema, said Drazen Klaric, editor in chief of The Times. After long discussions, it is now confirmed that Antun Vrdoljak will start filming the "General" based on the life of General Ante Gotovina, by the beginning of October.
