José Antonio Domínguez Banderas (born 10 August 1960, Málaga) is a Spanish player.
The childhood of Banderas, who was born on 10 August 1960, coincided with the years when fascist Franco's oppressive regime was felt most intensely. As a very approachable boy, Antonio dreamed of becoming a great person in the future. Planning to be a good football player for the first time, Banderas had to give up his love at an early age after suffering a serious injury. The actress, who discovered her predisposition to acting with Milos Forman's acclaimed movie "Hair" (1979), started to appear on the stage when she was 10 years old, despite all the objections of her family. He traveled Spain with the theater company he founded with his friends and performed street shows. Shortly after moving to Madrid in 1981, the actress had the opportunity to prove herself and qualified for the Spanish National Theater.

The actress, who played with Madonna in "Evita", the only musical in her career, starred in the 1998 commercial film "The Mask of Zorro" with Catherine Zeta-Jones. In 1999, he starred in the movie "The 13th Warrior," based on Michael Crichton's Xth century novel "Eaters of the Dead" about man-eating monsters.

He starred in the movie named.
The handsome actor Banderas starred in the children's movie Spy Kids, whose first film was shot in 2001, then he starred in many films, but he did not forget the children and voiced the role of Puss in Boots in the animated film Shrek and once again received great acclaim. The last movie that Banderas starred and spread was Mom's Lover, in which he played the role of a secret agent.
