Criminal mastermind Carmen Sandiego was the star of a number of games, working against the ACME Detective Agency as the head of V.I.L.E. The games taught kids geography and history, math and English.
The new show doesn’t ask, “Where is Carmen Sandiego?” but instead, “Who is Carmen Sandiego?” as the series peeks into her past while featuring new international capers.
Netflix has released the official Carmen Sandiego trailer for their upcoming animated series, premiering on January 18, starring Gina Rodriguez as the iconic character and Finn Wolfhard as Player.
She was also part of the ’90s children’s game show Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego?.
