It’s almost a little embarrassing to admit, but I really enjoyed The Mask Of Zorro. It was one of those light and fun adventure flicks with some good action and decent humor that we just don’t see much of these days with any degree of quality.
For those of you who may not know yet, a sequel is being released in October called The Legend of Zorro. The good folks over at Freeze Dried Movies offers us this little synopsis.
Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones are re-united with director Martin Campbell in Columbia Pictures’ epic adventure “The Legend of Zorro”. The year is 1850 and our swashbuckling crusader is challenged by the most dangerous mission of his life.
After fighting to help California become the 31st state of the Union, Zorro (Banderas) must live up to the promise he made his wife Elena (Zeta-Jones) – to give up his secret identity and live a normal life as Alejandro de la Vega. When he hesitates, it threatens to tear them apart. Now, the same forces that conspired to keep California from becoming part of the United States are plotting to unleash a threat that has been 500 years in the making, a threat that could change the course of history forever. And only Zorro can stop it.
The site also has 3 neat new pics from the film. I’m excited to see how this turns out. Antonio hasn’t had a really decent hit film in years and it would be good to see him in something slick again.
