Javier Bardem will star in Mexican director
Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu‘s film “
Biutiful.”
Spanish-language movie “Biutiful,” which Gonzalez Inarritu wrote, shoots on location in Barcelona next week.
The film is about a man embroiled in shady dealings who is confronted by a childhood friend, now a policeman.
Guillermo Arriaga and Gonzalez Inarritu were Mexico's most successful filmmaking duo, starting with their breakout hit “
Amores perros” in 2000 and with English-language films “
21 Grams” and “
Babel” that formed a trilogy.
“Biutiful” will be co-produced by Fernando Bovaira's Mod production company and
Cha Cha Cha, Gonzalez Inarritu's three-way partnership with
Alfonso Cuaron and
Guillermo del Toro.
