Tko je junak knjige o džungli Rudarda Kiplinga?
Zorro, čije ime na španjolskom znači "lisica", vjerojatno se zasnivao na meksičkim narodima plemenitog bandita koji se borio u ime seljaštva i starosjedilačkog naroda. Lik se prvi put pojavio u McCulleyjevoj serijalnoj petodijelnoj priči „Prokletstvo Capistrano“, koja je objavljena u pulskom časopisu All-Story Weekly, početkom kolovoza 1919. godine. Zorrov pravi identitet je Don Diego Vega (kasnije je preinačen u Don Diego de la Vega), mladi plemić koji je živio u Los Angelesu u Kaliforniji tijekom ranog 19. stoljeća, kada je to područje još bilo pod španjolskom vlašću. Don Diego je postao mačo Zorro kako bi obranio stanovništvo Los Angelesa od političkog ugnjetavanja. Zorro slavno koristi slovo Z kao svoju "marku", koristeći svoj mač kako bi ga urezao u odjeću - ili ponekad i tijela - svojih protivnika u tri brza udara.Zorro nije samo majstor mačevala, već i vješt strijelac i konjanik.
In 1920 Douglas Fairbanks starred in a film adaptation of McCulley’s story, titled The Mark of Zorro, which became a commercial hit and an enduring classic. It was this film that established Zorro’s iconic black costume, which featured a cape, a gaucho hat, and a mask that concealed the top half of his face. As a result of the film’s success, McCulley wrote more than 60 more Zorro stories, starting in 1922; the last was published in 1959, a year after McCulley’s death.
In addition to his success on the printed page, Zorro remained a popular draw at the box office, and Fairbanks returned to the role in a movie sequel, Don Q, Son of Zorro (1925). The 1940 remake of The Mark of Zorro starred Tyrone Power in the title role. In The Mask of Zorro (1998), Anthony Hopkins played an aging Don Diego, who emerges from retirement to train Antonio Banderas’s character to be his successor as Zorro. Banderas reprised that role in The Legend of Zorro in 2005. Zorro’s television appearances included Walt Disney’s Zorro series (1957–59), starring Guy Williams as the masked hero, as well as a syndicated live-action show (1990–93) and numerous animated series.
