Antonio Banderas recalls the grim prediction Steven Spielberg made about the movie industry while serving as a producer on The Mask of Zorro.
The Mask of Zorro star Antonio Banderas recalls the grim prediction Steven Spielberg made about Hollywood while serving as an executive producer on the film. Released in 1998, The Mask of Zorro is directed by Martin Campbell and serves as Banderas' introduction as the masked swordsman. The film was a hit, and Banderas would reprise the role for the less successful The Legend of Zorro in 2005.
“Steven Spielberg said to me once when we were shooting, ‘This is probably going to be one of the last Westerns shot in the way the Westerns were shot in the old days, with real scenes with real horses, where everything is real, [real] sword fighting, no CGI.’ Everything was [practical]. I don’t know if I was absolutely conscious when I was doing Zorro that it was going to have an impact. The impact that it’s had, and especially after 25 years. … It was a very beautiful adventure movie with a lot of ingredients that made it shine in a very beautiful way. I have nothing but good memories.”
