Málaga, Andalusia, Spain:
Actor y director español que ha alcanzado gran fama dentro del panorama cinematográfico internacional. Nació en Málaga e inició su carrera como actor en el seno una compañía de teatro independiente. Tras fijar su residencia en Madrid, comenzó a trabajar en el cine como actor secundario. En 1982 rodó Laberinto de pasiones, su primera película con Pedro Almodóvar, director gracias al que alcanzó gran popularidad a partir de su intervención en filmes como La ley del deseo (1986), Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios (1987) y Átame (1989). También colaboró en producciones de otros realizadores españoles, como Los zancos (1984), de Carlos Saura, Bajarse al moro (1988), de Fernando Colomo, y Si te dicen que caí (1989), de Vicente Aranda. Con Los reyes del mambo tocan canciones de amor (1992, de Arne Glimcher), basada en la novela del mismo título de Oscar Hijuelos, Banderas comenzó a actuar en producciones extranjeras. Después de divorciarse de su primera mujer, Ana Leza, y de fijar su residencia en Estados Unidos, contrajo matrimonio con la popular actriz estadounidense Melanie Griffith. Entre su filmografía destacan algunos títulos muy conocidos que lo han lanzado al estrellato, como Philadelphia (1993, de Jonathan Demme); La casa de los espíritus (1993, de Bille August), basado en la novela de la escritora chilena Isabel Allende; Entrevista con el vampiro (1994, de Neil Jordan); Two much (1995, de Fernando Trueba); Evita (1996, de Alan Parker), con Madonna; La máscara del Zorro (1998, de Martin Campbell), en la que da vida al célebre mito literario y del cine de acción, y Frida (2002, de Julie Taymor), donde interpreta al artista mexicano David Alfaro Siqueiros. También ha prestado su voz al personaje del gato con botas en la popular película de dibujos animados Shrek 2 (2004). En 1999 estrenó su primera película como director, Locos en Albama, protagonizada por su mujer. Tras sufrir un ataque al corazón el 26 de enero de 2017 el actor asegura estar ya bien y vaticina que lo mejor de su carrera “está por venír”.
