Penelope and Antonion Banderas are set to appear in the upcoming Spanish comedy film Official Competition, directed by Gastón Duprat & Mariano Cohn.
The film follows eccentric director Lola Cuevas (Penélope Cruz), who has been hired by a billionaire to create a movie of his ‘legacy’.
Alongside Lola’s trusted sidekick, Iván Torres (played by Argentine actor Oscar Martínez), they decide on offering the role of the billionaire to the hunky Félix Rivero (Antonio Banderas) to play in their movie.
The group hilariously clash at times, burdened by the task of bringing the frantic filmmaker’s dreams into a reality.
It is set to have its world premiere at the Venice Film Festival on 4 September 2021.
