Robert Rodriguez Plans Spy Kids 4

The next Spy Kids sequel might go straight to DVD

American director Robert Rodriguez, 37, might do another sequel to SPY KIDS, but stars Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara won't be on the cast list.

"We might do an animated, straight-to-DVD thing but that would be it", Rodriguez declared. "Couldn't do a live action thing - kids are too big", said the director.

Meanwhile, a proper special edition of the first Spy Kids is in plan.

"I think that comes out at Christmas. Yeah, I just did the commentary for it and they shot a whole bunch of new interviews with the kids and stuff and the actors and they've got all the deleted scenes and things that never made it to special edition", the "Sin City" filmmaker said in an interview for Moviehole.net.

After the sequel to Sin City, which is already in pre-production, Rodriguez will do "Grind House", which he aims to play like an old 70's drive-in movie, with Quentin Tarantino, whom he worked with for the movie 'From Dusk Till Dawn".

hoping for a Spy Kids 4 with Alexa and daryl. With them in it, the
movies awesome! And animation . . . Spy Kids, doesn't really mix. I
mean seriously. Please. : (

Spy kids are supposed to be kids! Not young adults! I'm glad he's not including Daryl and Alexa in the film!

I was once doing a SPY Kids quiz and it was said that Ingrid was pregnant and Carmen was turnig 16.She has a boyfriend named Rex,Rex s father Doctor X and Gregorio are enemies.But I didnt finish the quiz because when you get one wrong its all the way back to the beginning.Oh,well good bye!


Comment #13 by: Seerat on 31 Dec 2008, 21:21 GMT reply to this comment

Please Robert! Dont make Spykids 4 in ANIMATION! My entire family jus LOVES Alexa and Darl! As a matter of fact, I'm watching the second one right now, the fight scene. I'm having a great time! Lol, "Do what I showed you last night!" That was funny. "Triple back flip!" aha! Good times! Also, make sure that Gary and Gerti would be in the fourth one as well. I wonder if Gary will be nice, especially to Carmen and Juni. lol, "Wait till I tell mom, you tried to take over the world again!" Omgosh, you made some great movies Robert, please DONT make the fourth one with animation, let alone DO NOT take out Alexa and Darl. You can always do Spy Teens. Please think it over, i think a Spy Teens, sounds and would be pretty cool! Jus think about it. Alexa and Darl love ya and ur directing skills! PLease make a fourth one with the ORIGINAL stars! Thanks Robert! : )


Comment #14 by: Seerat on 31 Dec 2008, 21:28 GMT reply to this comment

I almost forgot! My favorite part of the second one is the Music Video at the end! I thought that was pretty cool! I totally loved it and always will! I think the special features rocked! Especially the "Total Access 24/7: A Day in the Life of Spy Kids". THAT IS AWESOME!!!!!! Aha the bloopers are funny too! These kind of movies are so rare, and thanks to directors like you Robert, we get these movies. It really shows how the actors and actress try to get their lines straight, and seeing all the behind the scene things are my favorite, after the movie that is. Robert, please please please make another movie jus like the other three! Great, funny, and jus amazing!


Comment #15 by: Hollieee on 18 Jan 2009, 09:26 GMT reply to this comment

I enjoyed watching Spy Kids back in the day. I remember Spy Kids 2 in theaters. Man, the line was LONG. I still watch it sometimes on Disney Channel!

I implore you to cut the animation and stick with the classics. Like someone said before me, do a Spy Teens. Make it a trilogy if you want. Just as long as it's live-action.

I give all 3 Spy Kids movies 5 stars!


Comment #18 by: grant on 07 Apr 2009, 21:10 GMT reply to this comment

animation? for alexa and daryl? i dont think so,make a spy teens if u need to just no animation :(.

Comment #24 by: Jousa on 30 Jun 2009, 06:02 GMT reply to this comment

spy kids rock... u dnt hav 2 do animation, cause as an incredible director you should know dat its not spy kids material. alexa and daryl r da only spy kids dat people love and will love. just imagine the response you will get when you put 2 newbies in the sequal. try 2 make this one work rodriguez. jousa


Comment #25 by: Elle on 15 Jul 2009, 01:58 GMT reply to this comment

OMG i hope he makes a 4th but NO ANIMATION!!!
i agree with everyone but i always have problems...Emily Osment is like, 17 now (she plays Gerti) but never mind u can do spy kids grown up! (no one stays a kid forever right?)


Comment #26 by: Brandon on 21 Jul 2009, 21:24 GMT reply to this comment

Well, spy kids was great, but It left on with a cliff hanger. What happened next? To Family is what they said, as they work as a family, but Game Over was not mostly about spy gear and equipment. It was mostly about video game fantasy. Now, Alexis and Darl by now are grown up, and so are the other people. Start with an interlude of the previous three movies, and then work your way up to now where carmen has a son, and junie has a daughter, (and of course, seprate husband or wife) or visa versa, and carmen and junie keep in touch because their family, just like they said in the original movie. Those children of theirs are the next generation of spy kids. But the catch: They don't want to be spies. Their generation however is all using sophisticated technology far beyond our own now, like in the future, and most of the old spy stuff are now out for general use. But one evil crafty villain uses those old gadgets and gismo to create the ultimate gadget robot, and starts the process to build an army of robot gadgets so he can conquer the world. It is up to the children of the spy kids to set things straight with the latest and greatest technology. But this time, technology is not going to get them very far, and family does not even seem to be enough. They are going to need something much more powerful. Something of the OLD world. Something like magic... the next generation of spy kids have come! Will the children of our greatest spy hero's suceed?

Anyway, that is my opinion.


Comment #27 by: laureen on 22 Jul 2009, 19:54 GMT reply to this comment

a spy kids 4 movie would be amazing.but i do agree that alexa and daryl might be a little too old to be spy kids.and an animated spy kids would just be too awkward.


Comment #28 by: bob on 27 Jul 2009, 11:32 GMT reply to this comment

I thnk either make a new spy kids with the real actors, who cares if they are older, or use different actors and make a prequiel


Comment #29 by: Aimee on 07 Aug 2009, 20:26 GMT reply to this comment

I think Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara should be in spy kids 4!!
without them it's not really spy kids i mean why does it matter if there grown up??? I mean Harry Potter all 3 of them made all the movies..
and Alexa can pass for like 15 16 you've got to have them on this one!


Comment #30 by: Spy girl on 30 Aug 2009, 12:51 GMT reply to this comment

Sweet I like the song Game over! I like Garry hes cool! I have to go but make the next one sweeter!!!


Comment #31 by: theresa123 on 05 Oct 2009, 03:29 GMT reply to this comment

What!I think Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara have to be in Spy Kids 4 BECAUSE it can't be Spy Kids if there are no KIDS!And NO ANIMATION!!!!


Comment #32 by: Springer on 05 Nov 2009, 06:25 GMT reply to this comment

To be honest, even though Alexa and Daryl may be too big for Spy Kids 4, they could atleast do 1 more movie thats non-animated. Animation just doesnt give that family love like the original ones. They also wont be as funny with a completely different person that plays Juni and Carmen Cortez. What do you think people will do and say when they hear someone else's voice, even though its animation? You have shown too many movies with the same people to just change them. With time, people have gotten use to hearing Alexa and Daryl play as the two young Cortez'. Same goes for the rest of the actors and Cortez' family. If you show something thats the exact opposite of what you have been showing, you'r going to get the exact opposite reaction of you'r fans that you have been getting about the originals. Even though im nearly an adult, I still love that family feeling and compassion thats in the originals. When I see something that Im a fan of completely change before my eye's, my only reaction is turning my eye's and back the other way. Listen to you'r fans, they are the ones you should listen to. To decide on you'r own, even though you have done such a good job with the originals, is sorta selfish towards you'r fans.


Comment #33 by: Aidan on 23 Nov 2009, 19:27 GMT reply to this comment

plz don't make an animation like stuart little 3 you will ruin the series and the movie could be them as adult spies?!
