Antonio Banderas has revealed who he would want to replace him in a Zorro reboot – and it's his ę¾³ę“²å¹øčæ5å¼å„å·ē åå²ę„čÆ¢:Uncharted co-star Tom Holland.
"Tom Holland," Banderas told , reportedly without hesitation, when the publication posed the question to him. "I did Uncharted with him and he's so energetic and fun and he's š got this spark, too. Why not?" He added that if another Zorro movie was made, he would "do what Anthony Hopkins did in the first moviį£e and so give the torch to somebody else."
Banderas played the masked vigilante in 1998's The Mask of Zorro, before reprising the role in 2005's The Legend of Zorro. šHe played Alejandro Murrieta, who took over the mantle from Hopkins' Don Diāego de la Vega.
The iconic figure first appeared in the 1919 novel The Curse of Capistrano by Johnston McCulley, which was adapted into a silent movie titled The Mark of Zorro in 1920 starring Douglas Fairbanks as the titš»ular character. Before the 1998 movie, Zorro last appeared in an American on-screen project in 1974, played by Frank Langella in a remake of the 1920 film.
Banderas and Holland previously starred opposite each other in vidš±eo game adaptation Uncharted – Holland played hero Nathan Drake, while Banderas played ruthless antagonist Santiago Moncada.
Banderas can next be seen in Indiana Jones 5 alongside Harrison Ford and Phoebe Waller-Bridge, although his role has yet to be revealed.
