Javier Bardem to appear in film based on brother's novel

Spain,Cinema/Showbiz, Thu, 26 Apr 2012 IANS

Madrid, April 26 (IANS/EFE) Javier Bardem will make his return to Spanish cinema when he plays a neo-Nazi ideologue in "Alacran enamorado" (Scorpion in Love), a film based on a novel by his brother Carlos.

 

In remarks to EFE, Spanish director Santiago Zannou said the winner of a best-supporting-actor Oscar for his turn in the Coen brothers' "No Country for Old Men" will play a secondary character named Solis, a role distinct from the purely villainous one he has in the upcoming James Bond film.

 

"In my film (the character) is more realistic, not a wicked villain who wants to destroy the world, but an ordinary person. Those are the ones who truly frighten me, for having a type of ideology that separates people, that engenders violence," Zannou said.

 

This will mark the first time Bardem has worked with a Spanish director since he won four Goya awards for his performance in Alejandro Amenabar's "Mar adentro" (The Sea Inside).

 

"Alacran enamorado" tells the story of Alyssa, a seductive Latin American immigrant who had fallen victim to a prostitution ring and now makes a living cleaning houses, and Julian, alias "El alacran" (The Scorpion), a member of a neo-Nazi group.
