DJ Cotrona is set to reunite with director Robert Rodriguez in Netflix’s upcoming Spy Kids reboot. The duo had previously worked together on the television adaptation of From Dusk Till Dawn. The actor joins Gina Rodriguez, Zachary Levi, Billy Magnussen, Everly Carganilla, and Connor Esterson.

Spy Kids is an action-comedy that follows the Cortez family. Created by Rodriguez, the franchise which began back in 2001 follows a pair of siblings who become spies following the footsteps of their parents and getting mired in the experiences of their spy agency. This new, yet unnamed instalment will be another soft reboot with the focus on two kids after they unwittingly help an evil game developer create an unstoppable computer virus. With the virus granting the developer control over all the world's technology, the kids have to take up the parents' position to save the day.

Rodriguez is set to return as the director of the film and will also serve as writer and producer. Racer Max serves as co-writer.

Apart from this film, Cotrona will next be seen in Shazam! Fury of the Gods
