Eva Longoria Joins Dora the Explorer

The upcoming Dore the Explorer film has found Dora’s mom!

Eva Longoria has joined Paramount’s live-action feature based on the highly popular character from the Nickelodeon TV series. The film already began production in Australia with James Bobin directing the film and Isabela Moner is starring as the titular character with Eugenio Derbez, Micke Moreno, Nicholas Coombe, Madeleine Madden, Adriana Barraza and Temuera Morrison.

The premise of the film will follow Dora, a girl who has spent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents but now must navigate her most dangerous adventure yet: high school. Always the explorer, Dora quickly finds herself leading Boots (her best friend, a monkey), Diego and a rag-tag group of teens on a Goonies-esque adventure to save her parents and solve the impossible mystery behind a lost Inca civilization.

Dora the Explorer hits theaters on August  2, 2019.
