Zachary Levi (“Shazam”), Gina Rodriguez (“Jane the Virgin”), Everly Carganilla (“The Afterparty”) and newcomer Connor Esterson are set to star as the new family at the heart of the “Spy Kids” reboot at Netflix, Skydance and Spyglass.
Franchise creator Robert Rodriguez will co-write, direct and produce the next film, which introduces a whole new family of spies. Racer Max also co-writes the script and produces.
In the new film, 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 – leading them to become spies themselves to save their parents and the world.
David Ellison, Dana Goldberg, Elizabeth Avellan and Don Granger will produce. The original films starred Antonio Banderas, Carla Gugino, Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara in the lead roles and collectively grossed more than $550 million worldwide.
