Except that now he would need to carry a combat weapon. A sword won't get you very far now.

“Che Guevara”? Maybe in some renderings, but the Guy Williams’ version never had Zorro ordering the execution of his enemies and viewing them with relish.

Che Guevara is the real thing. Alas, when fighting for freedom, casualties will occur. Still, I enjoyed the Disney series as a kid.

Ready for the down votes, but after watching a lot of movies that are fiction lately, there is no way they could make this movie in today's enviornment and have it make box office records. Zorro could not be a White Male Spainard, at the very least Zorro would have to virtue signal until it makes people sick to watch.

When fighting for “freedom” Guevara-style atrocities occur.
@Braze
I didn’t see the 1981 version with the amusing, suggestive title, “Zorro, The Gay Blade”, but even that couldn’t be remade today. They’d have to change it from a comedy to a straight, beg your pardon, and predictable virtue-signaling adventure.

Please, no more Zorro movies! Maybe a Netflix series or something, with one episode being a book the man penned, but no more movies... unless maybe it's a dark reboot of some ex-con vigilante with the nickname and he calls his favorite gun "sword" or something. I could see something like that.

The murderous opportunist Che Guevarra has nothing in common with Zorro.
Toasted Heretic
Well, quite. Che was a real life revolutionary and Zorro was a fictional character.
And I love both of them.
