He's baaaaack! Get ready for lots of action from that hot guy who makes the mark of the "Z"!

It's 1850 and California is about to become the 31st state. Of course, some baddies have other ideas. Antonio Banderas and Catherine Zeta-Jones return as Don Alejandro de la Vega/Zorro and Elena de la Vega. Their son Joaquin (Adrian Alonso) worships Zorro, thinks his dad is a wimp and has no idea of his pop's dual identity. Elena wants Alejandro to stop Zorro-ing around the countryside and pay more attention to their marriage and son. If fact, she's so sick of it that she divorces him and gravitates toward old friend Armand, a rich, French winemaker (Rufus Sewell) who has just relocated to the area.

Of course all is not as it seems. While Zorro is dealing with jealousy and baddie thug Jacob McGivens (Nick Chinlund), Elena finds out that Armand isn't really making wine but an early version of nitro-glycerin to sell to the South for the upcoming Civil War so he and his secret society cohorts can take over the U.S. and run things as a shadow government. Will the De la Vegas reunite? Will Armand be thwarted? Will lots of stuff blow up? What do you think?
