Antonio Banderas could return under the mask of Zorro, but on one condition… The actor, who has already played the hero twice, in 1998 and 2005, was asked about a potential return to the franchise, and although he is not against it, he would like to do it with an idea in mind.

Questioned by ComicBook.com, the Spaniard indicated that he would like to transmit the character to one of his colleagues.

And he already knows who would be ideal in the role.



" Yes, I will do it.

I would consider this possibility.

Why not ?

I think, during the interviews today, I said something like that to someone.

I said, "Well, if they called me to do Zorro, I'd do what Anthony Hopkins did in the first movie for me, which was to pass the torch to somebody else. 'other,'" he said.

Only one choice

As for the star he would see to sign "with a Z which means Zorro", Antonio Banderas is formal: it is absolutely necessary to call on Tom Holland.

The two actors collaborated on the set of

Uncharted

, and obviously, the Spaniard is under the spell.

“When I did

Uncharted

with him, I saw how energetic and fun he is, and he has that spark too, you know?

So why not him?

“, he said.

In

The Mask of Zorro

released in 1998, Anthony Hopkins, who played the Don Diego de la Vega well known to all fans of the character, transmitted the costume and the mask to the character of Antonio Banderas, an outlaw.
