Film - Spy Kids

The Spy Kids film franchise is getting a reboot thanks to Netflix. Here's who's in the cast...

When the children of the world’s greatest secret agents unwittingly help a powerful Game Developer unleash a computer virus that gives him control of all technology, they must become spies themselves to save their parents and the world.

It's been 21 years [HOW LONG?! - Ed] since the first Spy Kids film graced our screens so obviously the kids back then (Daryl Sabara as Juni and Alexa Vega as Carmen) have long since stopped being kids and even Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino can't really hold back the sands of time, so we're getting a whole new family with a whole new story.

Gina Rodriguez (Awake, Someone Great, Annihilation), Zachary Levi (Shazam!, American Underdog, The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Everly Carganilla (Yes Day, The Chair, The Afterparty) and newcomer Connor Esterson have been cast as the franchise’s new family.

The franchise’s original creator and director Robert Rodriguez (We Can Be Heroes, Alita: Battle Angel) will write, direct and produce the next film, which will introduce the world to the new family of spies. Racer Max will co-write. The film marks Rodriguez’s second family film with Netflix, following the breakout success of the 2020 family action film We Can Be Heroes.

There's no more news on the story or even a tentative release date so we'll just have to wait and see.
