Spanish hunk and Hollywood star Antonio Banderas will present his new movie "Summer Rain", to which he is the director on November 9 in Sofia's National Palace of Culture.
Banderas is in the country with Morgan Freeman to shoot their movie "The Code", where the two play artful jewellery thieves whose new aim are Faberge eggs, owned by a NY collector of Russian origin.
"The two are such lively characters! They dance and sign when the shooting of a particular scene is over, Antonio even shows off with some flamenco dance moves. And Morgan is a very special person - you can never lie to him or pretend to be something you are not," one of the Bulgarian actresses said for the Standart Newspaper.
The shooting of the crime drama, which is production of the US moviemaker Nu Image, has already started a nearly two months ago in New York. The movie will be directed by Mimi Leder ("The Peacemaker", "Pilot", The Tunnel").
A total of 12 Bulgarian actors play together with the two Hollywood stars, Deyan Donkov, Zahari Baharov and Velizar Binev among them.
Banderas will stay in Bulgaria until the end of the shooting in December.
At the same time, CEO of Nu Image, David Varod, vowed to turn the Boyana Studious into the biggest one in Europe.
