Antonio Banderas and Stepdaughter Dakota Johnson's Reunion Photo Is Fifty Shades of Adorable

Antonio Banderas on Stepdaughter Dakota in "Fifty Shades"

Dakota Johnson is back with her Paponio.

The Madame Web star recently reunited with her stepfather Antonio Banderas in his hometown of Málaga, Spain, where he is directing a Spanish version of the '70s musical They're Playing Our Song at his Teatro del Soho CaixaBank theater.

The Mask of Zorro actor, who was once married to Johnson's mother Melanie Griffith, shared photos of himself and the Fifty Shades of Grey actress onstage with several people. Antonio, 63, also posted a shot of the two of them inside the restaurant Atrezzo, one of several he co-owns in the town.

He captioned his July 9 Instagram post, "Happiness: Dakota in Malaga!"

Antonio and the 34-year-old, whose dad is actor Don Johnson, have reunited several times since he and Melanie divorced in 2015 after 18 years of marriage.

"I come from a family of many a marriage and I got very lucky," Dakota said in 2019 at the Hollywood Film Awards, where she presented Antonio with the Hollywood Actor Award for his performance in Pain and Glory. "I got a bonus dad who I realized that, over time, is actually one of the most influential people in my whole life."

Antonio, who moved back to Málaga and opened his theater that same year, is known to Dakota by a special nickname.

"She called me 'Paponio,'" he told E! NewsFrancesca Amiker in 2022. "I am 'Papi' and 'Antonio' altogether, so she always called me 'Paponio.'"

For Dakota, her Paponio is also a role model.

"I remember growing up with him, and how he would train for things and get ready for stuff," Dakota told E! News at the Madame Web premiere in February. "I'm disciplined, and take care of my body and do the proper training needed—he's really hard core with that stuff—but I learned a lot from him."
