Spanish actor Antonio Banderas has lent his voice to one of the main characters in Justin and the Knights of Valour, a feature-length 3D animated film scheduled for release next year.
The English-language movie is the latest project of Kandor Graphics, a Spanish animation studio in which Banderas is a partner and which received an Oscar nomination for best animated short film in 2009 for The Lady and the Reaper.
Banderas said during a visit to the studio's headquarters in the southern city of Granada, that the film — about a boy on a quest to become a knight against his father's wishes — "is a homage to the values that unfortunately no longer prevail as much, such as love, loyalty and bravery".
