First Look At Isabela Moner As DORA THE EXPLORER

Earlier this summer, actress Isabela Moner navigated the dark world of Sicario: Day of the Soldado alongside Benicio del Toro and Josh Brolin. However, Moner’s next film will have a considerably lighter tone when she steps into the title role of Dora the Explorer. The film is being produced by Paramount Players and Nickelodeon production in association with Walden Media. It was reported last fall that Michael Bay would be producing the first ever live-action Dora the Explorer movie based upon the beloved TV series with the same name, but he is no longer part of the project.

Moner shared the first image of herself in costume as Dora via her Instagram account, and it looks like the young heroine is essentially still wearing the same clothes she wore as a child, though clearly much older than her animated iteration.

Paramount followed up on that picture by announcing the beginning of principal photography for Dora the Explorer, which is being filmed on location in Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The story places Dora in high school after spending most of her life accompanying her parents on adventures. But this won’t strictly be a story about Dora’s period of adjustment, as she’ll reunite with her monkey, Boots, and go on a jungle quest to save her parents and discover the fate of a lost civilization.

James Bobin is directing the film, which co-stars Micke Moreno, Eugenio Derbez, Nicholas Coombe, Madeleine Madden, Adriana Barraza, and Temuera Morrison. Dora the Explorer will be released on August 2, 2019.
