\tAntonio Banderas famously portrayed the masked vigilante in 1998’s movie The Mask of Zorro<\/em> and its 2005 follow-up The Legend of Zorro<\/em>. Banderas recently opened up about being game for a third installment of the franchise and who he would like to pass on the torch to play the titular character.<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cYes, I would, I would consider that possibility, why not?\u201d Banderas told ComicBook of starring in a third movie. \u201cYeah, I think today, I said something like that to somebody. They asked me about Zorro. If they called me to do Zorro, I would do what Anthony Hopkins did for me, which is to pass the torch.\u201d<\/p>\n

\tBanderas said that he would like to see his Uncharted<\/em> costar Tom Holland behind the mask.<\/p>\n

\n

\t\u201cI did Uncharted with him, and he’s so energetic and fun, and he’s got this spark too,\u201d Banderas said. \u201cWhy not?\u201d<\/p>\n

\tBack in 2016, director Jon\u00e1s Cuar\u00f3n announced he was working on a Zorro reboot starring Gael Garc\u00eda Bern\u00e1l.<\/p>\n

\n

\tAlthough there are no concrete plans to bring back Zorro in its iteration with Banderas as of now, the character has been at the center of multiple television projects. Earlier this year, the CW had ordered six scripts for a female-led reimagination of the story. The classic masked vigilante character hailed from filmmaker Robert Rodriguez, writer-director Rebecca Rodriguez, Sean Tretta (Mayans MC), Ben Silverman and Howard T. Owens’ Propagate and CBS Studios.<\/p>\n

\tWilmer Valderrama also teased a new show he was working on for Disney+ teasing on The Drew Barrymore Show<\/em> in May of this year, \u201cThis will be a Zorro for this generation. And it’ll be incredibly thoughtful with its origin story, and it’ll be grounded in authenticity.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
