Popular Hollywood actor Antonio Banderas has revealed that his 2017 heart attack is the ‘best thing’ to have happened in his life because it helped him see what was important.
The Spanish actor who made the disclosure while discussing his new film, Puss In Boots: The Last Wish where he plays the cat we first meet in Shrek 2 in 2004 said the experience helped him to give a better perspective of his life.
According to the 62-year-old actor, being close to death made him look at his life “from a different point of view”, adding that he’s now only looking out for the pleasure of acting.

He told Radio Times; “Well, I had a heart attack six years ago.
“It probably was one of the best things that happened in my life. It was like putting glasses on and seeing what was important.”
“Since my heart attack, I’m looking only for the pleasure of acting. That’s it. I don’t care about anything else. For me, life starts when somebody says, “Action!” – or when the curtain comes up.”
