Though it’s been a while since we last heard word on his Zorro reboot starring Gael García Bernal (Coco) and Kiersey Clemons (The Flash), writer/director Jonás Cuarón has lined up his next project in the form of an untitled Chupacabra film at Netflix, according to Deadline.
A sequel is currently in post-production with Russell set to return alongside Goldie Hawn, Judah Lewis, Darby Camp and Kimberly Williams-Paisley as well as seeing Columbus step behind the camera to helm the film.
In addition to directing, Cuarón is currently penning a new draft of the script for the film based on an original copy from Marcus Rinehart (Ben 10), Sean Kennedy Moore and Joe Barnathan (Mega Man: Fully Charged).
The film is set to center on a teenager who gains an unlikely companion in the form of a young chupacabra hiding in his grandpa’s shed while visiting his family in Mexico and must join with his cousins to embark on a life-changing adventure to save the mythical creature.
