Antonio Banderas, Four Talía Awards, 'Godspell' at the Soho, and Three New Film Shoots

It's all pure theater. And film. Antonio Banderas has had a non-stop 2025, during which he managed to release a couple of movies, shoot three more, direct a new musical for his Teatro del Soho Caixabank, and open Sohrlin Andalucía as a new venue for major shows. He did the latter alongside his partner Domingo Sánchez, with the circus show 'Imagine' that opened a new window to the general public in this space dedicated to training and idea development. The year kicked off for the actor with 'Babygirl', alongside Nicole Kidman, followed by the release of the new installment of the blockbuster saga 'Paddintong'. He used the summer to continuously shoot three titles that we will see in 2026: 'Tony', a biopic about chef Anthony Bourdain; 'Above & Below', a shark thriller, and 'Rose's Baby' (The Baby of Rose), a family drama with Úrsula Corberó.

In theater, Banderas won four Talía awards for the musical 'Gypsy', while last October he reaffirmed his commitment to the genre with the revival of 'Godspell', this time directed by the Malaga-born artist and currently showing at the Soho. Comfortable in his role as director, the actor and producer admits he wants to return to the stage and already has a title in mind: the musical 'Sweeney Todd'.
