Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones have returned to the franchise which helped make their careers - 1998's "The Mask of Zorro" - by shooting the sequel in San Luis Potosi, Mexico, through December.

<a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/2004-10-14-coming-attractions_x.htm" target="_blank"><img src="zorro2.jpg" border="0" vspace="5" height="180" hspace="7" align="right" width="180" /></a><a href="http://www.usatoday.com/life/2004-10-14-coming-attractions_x.htm" target="_blank">USA Today</a> reveals that in &quot;The Legend of Zorro&quot; directed by Martin Campbell (&quot;Goldeneye&quot;, &quot;The Mask of Zorro&quot;), dashing Alejandro and sultry Elena are married and have a 10-year-old son, Joaquin (Adrian Alonso), who knows nothing of his dad's secret swashbuckling identity. 

Besides, the missus would be thrilled if Mr. Z kept his sword sheathed once and for all. But when greedy villains threaten to halt California's statehood, it's Zorro to the rescue once again.

Zeta-Jones insist their character's passion is still flaming - &quot;Being married has only enhanced their feelings for each other&quot;. The actress has to retrain a bit for her swordfighting skills. The paper also has the first picture from the movie seen above right.

Thanks to 'Engarde'.
