The life of Stelios Kazantzidis is being made into a movie.
Stelios Kazantzidis passed away 23 years ago. The life of the great singer is to be transferred to the cinema and he will be played by Christos Mastoras.
The film will be released in two parts and as Thanos Vagios said in Breakfast, the actors asked for the rights and got the rights from Vaso Kazantzidis.
In a telephone conversation with Proino, Vaso Kazantzidis said: “It’s a fact, it’s true! First of all, the filming will start in the spring! It’s planned, the whole thing has gone ahead… It wasn’t the first time I’ve been approached. An idea has matured and it was the wish of Stelios, the years pass, now that I am alive let it be his wish. He wanted it, he wanted it very much… He had said “I want my life, I want it to be a movie”.
From various conversations we had from time to time with Stelios, the most important events in his life, his path, that will be, from his childhood! They sent us the script, we read it, corrected it, removed it, added it… Everything is finished.”
Afterwards, Vaso Kazantzidis said the following: “It was what I expected, a serious proposal and it happened, so now it is completed and so if Stelios sees us from above, I believe he will be happy because what he wanted is happening! I will definitely go to the filming, definitely because filming will also take place in Agios Kostantinos. Stelios spent his best years there. It was a piece he loved.”
Christos Mastoras will play Stelios Kazantzidis and Vaso Kazantzidis said about it: “A new kid! I am sincerely glad! But I don’t know because we haven’t discussed it… At some point they will inform me and his brother Stathis who the actors will be.”
