Biography

Antonio Banderas is a Spanish actor who began on a small stage in Málaga, where Pedro Almodóvar noticed him and handed him his film debut in Labyrinth of Passion (1982). More Almodóvar work followed through the 1980s, including Law of Desire (1987) and Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown (1988). He moved into American films, learning his lines phonetically for The Mambo Kings (1992) before appearing in Philadelphia (1993) and Interview with the Vampire (1994). Later he took the title role in The Mask of Zorro (1998), played El Mariachi in Desperado (1995) and Once Upon a Time in Mexico (2003), and became the voice of Puss in Boots across the animated Shrek series. On Broadway he played Guido Contini in Nine (2003), earning a Tony nomination, and his reunion with Almodóvar on Pain and Glory (2019) won him the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Actor and an Academy Award nomination.
