Banderas slays as zorro

Antonio’s stock continued to rise after he went against convention and played Che in the movie musical Evita, which famously starred Madonna in the title role. He returned to his action roots in The Mask of Zorro in 1998 but then experienced some low points with the unsuccessful flicks The 13th Warrior and Play It to the Bone. Still, Banderas remained a hot commodity and proceeded to steam up the screen alongside Angelina Jolie in 2001’s Original Sin.

Career in Hollywood

He subsequently moved to the U.S. and began appearing in American films; some of his earlier roles there included the 1992 film, The Mambo Kings, as well as a supporting role in the Oscar-winning 1993 film, Philadelphia. He appeared in several major Hollywood releases in 1995, including a starring role in the Robert Rodriguez-directed film, Desperado. In 1996, he starred alongside Madonna in Evita, an adaptation of the musical by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice in which he played the narrator, Che, a role originally played on Broadway by Mandy Patinkin. He also received critical praise for his role as the fictional Mexican masked swordsman, Zorro in the 1998 film The Mask of Zorro, for which he was the first Spanish actor to portray the character after over 80 years since Zorro’s creation.

He has also frequently collaborated with Robert Rodriguez who cast him in the Spy Kids film trilogy and the final installment in the “Mariachi” trilogy (in which he appeared with Johnny Depp), Once Upon A Time In Mexico. Banderas’ sole credit as a director was the poorly-received Crazy in Alabama (1999), starring his wife Melanie Griffith.

He first gained wide attention through a series of films by director Pedro Almodóvar, between 1982 and 1990. These included Laberinto de pasiones (1982), Matador (1986), La ley del deseo (1987), Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios (1988), and ¡Átame! (1989). His breakthrough role was as the character “Ricky” in ¡Átame! (English-language title: Tie Me Up! Tie Me Down!), which was a minor success in the United States.
