Almodovar banks on Penelope once again

14:46 H | Topics: Celebrities - Entertainment - Movies - Spain

Back in the 80s, it was Carmen Maura. In the 90s, Victoria Abril. Now Pedro Almodovar's "Chica Almodovar" is Penelope Cruz. As "Pe" enjoys fame on her own both in U.S. productions (and most recently as a star in Woody Allen's upcoming film) and Spanish flicks, Almodovar isn't about to give up the lady that made his latest film, Volver, such a commercial success. Pedro's signed up Penelope for his new film project, which he remains tight-lipped about, as does she:

"Pedro has told me a little about the story and the character, but for the moment I can't say anything else," said the actress...

Pedro and Penelope talked very little about the new film at a press conference in London, where they were publicizing the premiere of Almodovar's "All About my Mother" in its English-language stage encarnation.
