1. Dueling with Catherine Zeta Jones in the Mask of Zorro (1998) whilst undressing her with his sword. There is real chemistry on screen and in Hollywood movies that is increasingly rare.

2. Exploding onto the screen in Desperado (1995) alongside Salma Hayek looking red hot in a black suit and white t-shirt. This is one action movie that's worth watching.

3. Original Sin (2001) may have been a turkey of a movie but Antonio and Angelina Jolie really turn up the heat in the love scenes. Not one to watch with your mum.

1. As a boy he dreamed of playing professional football rather than becoming an actor. However, he was forced to change his career plans when he broke his foot in his early teens.

2. He's the son in law of the legendary actress Tippi Hedren who starred in classics such as The Birds (1963) and Marnie (1964). She, of course, was Melanie Griffith's mother.

3. His full name is José Antonio Domínguez Bandera. Dominguez was the surname of his father and Bandera the surname of his mother. It's unclear why Antonio decided to add 's' onto the end of Bandera.
