One of our most-anticipated Cannes competition titles is Pedro Almodóvar‘s The Skin I Live In. Based on the book Tarantula, by Thierry Jonquet, Antonio Banderas will play a disturbed plastic surgeon who seeks vengeance on the man who sexually assaulted his daughter. After the standard drama of Broken Embraces, I eagerly await to see the surprises Almodóvar has in store with this one.

The film also stars Elena Anaya, Marisa Paredes, Jan Cornet, Roberto Alamo, Blanca Suárez, Eduard Fernández, José Luis Gómez, Bárbara Lennie, Susi Sánchez, Fernando Cayo and Teresa Manresa. Check out the stills below from Abando (via Bleeding Cool), tiger suits and all.

The Skin I Live In premieres at Cannes Film Festival this May and will hit theaters by the end of the year.

What do you think of the new stills?
