Robert Rodriguez returns to the world of Spy Kids with Spy Kids: Armageddon – and here’s the first teaser trailer.
Robert Rodriguez’ original Spy Kids trilogy still stands up as one of the most fun, inventive series of family films of the era. Daryl Sabara and Alexa PenaVega starred as Juni and Carmen Cortez, kids who discover their dull parents, played by Antonio Banderas and Carla Gugino, are actually retired spies. With a cracking ensemble cast that included Danny Trejo, Alan Cumming, Tony Shalhoub, Ricardo Montalban and even Sylvester Stallone, they are delightfully imaginative stories.
Rodriguez rebooted the series a few years later with Spy Kids: All The Time In The World, followed by a television series for Netflix, Spy Kids: Mission Critical.
Rodriguez is staying with Netflix for another reboot, a film entitled Spy Kids: Armageddon. The synopsis this time reads as follows:
‘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.’
Rodriguez directed the film and co-wrote the script with his son, Racer Rodriguez. Gina Rodriguez (no relation), Zachary Levi, Everly Carganilla and newcomer Connor Esterson will star.
Spy Kids: Armageddon will stream on Netflix from the 22nd September.
