Back to the Great White Way?
Filed under: Broadway Babies
New York Magazine reports that Antonio Banderas is working on a return to Broadway!
He told the mag, “I am working with David Leveaux, who was the director of Nine, on that possibility."
No surprise that he's working with Leveaux! Antonio got a Tony nomination for his performance in Nine.
The project, he said, is Don Giovanni.
Banderas' publicist cut the chat short before they could nab more info.
It's not clear if Banderas and Leveaux will be working on a Broadway adaption of the opera or the play Don Giovanni written by a Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago.
Guess we'll have to wait and see!

ANTONIO BANDERAS SAYS:
SUPPORT DANE COOK!
LET BEAST POOP!
SUFI!
An on-set source revealed: “It’s absolutely classic Madonna. Probably the raunchiest stuff she has ever done. It leaves nothing to the imagination and will be very controversial.
“Britney and Madonna are unwrapped like mummies, to appear together almost naked apart from tiny leather bondage pants and knee-high boots.
“They then dance closely together, pressing their hands and bodies together.
“There will be big rows over whether it is sexy, shocking or both.”
Britney has been filming scenes at a Hollywood studio and was snapped leaving a nearby hair salon looking more spruced up than she has for ages.
It’s good that Madonna is helping her rebuild her career, but I’m still not convinced I’m ready to see her stripped down to her smalls.
The Toxic singer will also perform to Madge’s 1995 track Human Nature.
And in one scene to be broadcast during the tour — which opens in Cardiff on August 23 — Britney loses her mind after getting stuck in a lift in a short film by New York photographer STEVEN KLEIN.
Still YUMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
"Portuguese guy"? Nobel award winning author, Jose Saramago. The first Portuguese speaking author to win the award! He is more than just a Portuguese guy for sure!
It's sad when the Queen of Media has no idea of someone like Jose Saramago. It reminds me of a recent Miss South Carolina and her comment about "the Iraq" in regards to education. Some advice: read more literature and less gossip magazines.
get a new hair style chico
Jose Saramago is not just a portuguese guy!! He is a Nobel-laureate Portuguese writer, playwright and journalist.
"written by a Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago" WTF??!!!
Dude, you really need to stop writing about Britney, Paris…. and start reading to get some much needed culture.
Jose Saramago is a Novel prize winner!!
JOSE SARAMAGO IS NOT 'A PORTUGUESE GUY', HE'S A NOBEL PRIZE, ASSHOLE !
Saramago is a portuguese guy, just like Einstein is just a german guy…
Oh perez, perez…Read some good books!
ANTONIO IS SEXY!
Perez do some research, please! Jose Saramago is not a guy… is a winner of a nobel prize of literature!
This man is HOTT.
ayayay!
A Nobel Prize winner querido.
he looks like a tan Mr. Bean with a Spanish accent
'a portugese guy'? really? you mean the nobel prize winning author jose saramago?
his novels are great. I look forward to his play if this happens. I think Antonio would do the play justice.
that portuguese guy you mention so despectively happen to be a Nobel Prize for literature……ignorante!
While you've never said you're a very intelligent person, you constantly critizise celebrities who say moronic things, especially about politics and something that is outside the Hollywood bubble, and I'm with you in that.
But saying that Jose Saramo is "a Portuguese guy"? Seriously? How do you have the guts to say something about them, while you diss a Nobel Prize winner?
Since it's so unfortunate that you have no idea who Saramago is, and perhaps reading a novel is too much to handle for a media queen, I recommend that you watch "Blindness". This is a film adaptation of a novel written by that "Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago." You should post a pic of yourself with the adjective "IGNORANT" written over it.
"written by a Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago"?
Please dont tell us you dont know about this "portuguese guy"…
you should read more…..books.
Perez, please! The "Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago" won the Nobel Prize of Literature. Isso é cultura latina!
Perez you asshole…I know you're not anti-Portuguese because for one thing you're of Galician background and that IS Portuguese but why the fuck would you try to minimize and degrade the greatest living writer of our time? Jose Saramago is a nobel prize winner of literature and is considered our greatest living writer.

Seriously, "a Portugese guy named Jose Saramago"? He is an amazing author who has written some very profound things! Do some research please, before calling a prolific writer "some guy".
mister, a little more respect to J Saramago, one of the greatest writers in mankind…
it's just stupid
For some reason - everytime I see a pic of Antonio Banderas, I can hear his voice in the background saying (in a heavy spanish accent): "M-e-llllll-aneee"
(and I'm not kidding folks)…
Thanks for this fantastic info. Everyone was wondering where Antonio has been. Seriously though, you're a retard. Nobody cares! You're cum guzzling ass will probably report on how great Ernest Borgnine was in the Air Wolf reruns. Eat a cock!!!
Yummo!!
José de Sousa Saramago, GColSE (pronounced [ʒuˈzɛ sɐɾɐˈmagu]; born November 16, 1922) is a Nobel-laureate Portuguese writer, playwright and journalist. His works, some of which can be seen as allegories, commonly present subversive perspectives on historic events, emphasizing the human factor rather than the officially sanctioned story. Saramago was awarded the Nobel Prize for literature in 1998. He founded the National Front for the Defense of Culture (Lisbon, 1992) with among others Freitas-Magalhaes. He currently lives on Lanzarote in the Canary Islands, Spain.
Notable award(s) : Nobel Prize in Literature (1998)
Hey Perez!
That "Portuguese guy named Jose Saramago" is a NOBEL PRIZE in Literature!!!!!!!!!!! He is not only just a Portuguese guy!!!!
Perez… It's not "a Portuguese guy" … it's a Nobel Prize for literature winner! That was shameful.
By the way, José Saramago is a Nobel Literature Prize winner!
another one here shocked by calling José Saramago "a Portuguese guy" O_O
read more literature and less gossip magazines.
portuguese guy Jose Saramago? He is a genius, a nobel prize owner. Americans don't have any culture at all
José Saramago isnt a "guy portuguese", he is a nobel prizer winner of literature. You must read more books…. perez hilton.
OK, you're right: Saramago is portuguese. And you didn´t misspell his name. It could have been worse. Like calling him Sara Mago. You also called it right when you assumed he's written something. It could also have been worse, like naming him Sara the magician.
I guess you've found out by now that he´s a Nobel prize award winner. So let´s move on: do you know what the Nobel prize is? Are you aware of who Mr. Nobel was? Do you know the country and the continent where the award is given? Did you learn what a continent is? I could go on & on & on… Congratulations. In Spain we have a saying "la ignorancia es muy atrevida" which we could try to translate like "ignorance is very bold" and you're shameless
OMG! Antonio is so HOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And Jose Saramago has a novel price you idiot!!! I can´t believe you´re sooo ignorant!!
"Some guy"… more like one of the most important Latin authors in the world! I thought you were a Latin, Perez…
