Why does Hollywood keep insisting on swapping male characters for females instead of focusing on original female characters?

Lack of imagination?

I forgot to post this note with the picture of West with Zorro -

Adam West is most famous of course for playing BATMAN.

Batman creator Bob Kane credits Zorro as an inspiration for the character. Many adaptations of Batman's origin include Bruce Wayne being inspired by Zorro in how he makes Batman look.

Adan West's character in the Zorro episode is named Dr. Henry WAYNE.

I'm sad to report that actor Henry Darrow has died at age 87 Henry Darrow, Actor on 'The High Chaparral,' Dies at 87 Darrow was best known as "Manolito" on the TV series THE HIGH CHAPARRAL. He also was known for playing police detective Manny Quinlan on HARRY O, and for being in three separate ZORRO series (he was the voice of Zorro in the animated THE NEW ADVENTURES OF ZORRO, then portrayed an elderly Don Diego de la Vega in ZORRO AND SON, and the father of a new ZORRO (replacing Efrem Zimbalist Jr.) on a 1990-93 Family Channel show that starred Duncan Regehr). He was also Robert Beltran's (Chokotay) father on STAR TREK VOYAGER. I met him a con years ago....a very friendly and outgoing guy. I remember him laughing a lot, constantly having a big smile on his face, and really interested in the trading cards I brought for him to sign with his picture on them.

It's not a TV show, it's a video game.

That yeah, but according to IMDB and stuff, its based on a tv show with the same name.

Sorry about that....the video only said it was a video game, so I didn't check IMDB. The voice cast seems to be all American. If it was a series here it must have been syndicated in not too many areas.

Stuntman Buddy Van Horn has passed away at age 91. Among the many things he did was being Guy Williams's stunt double on his TV series ZORRO.

RIP Mr. Tylo.

I used to watch the 1990 Zorro series when I was a kid. I always liked his smarmy alcalde.

[Dave McFly]

can't we just have another with Bandaras???

 

[Mysteryman]

can't we just have another with Bandaras???

If they did that, they would have to also introduce an adult version of Don Diego's Son or, Daughter to inherit the mantle of Zorro.

I am cool with that there was a deleted alternate ending that showed a grown up version of him suiting up and riding off with his parents watching
