According to THR, Pena and Longoria will play Cole and Elena Marquez, the parents of Dora, who is being portrayed by Transformers: The Last Knight and Sicario: Day of the Soldado star Isabela Moner.
Having spent most of her life exploring the jungle with her parents nothing could prepare Dora for the most dangerous adventure ever – High School. Always the explorer, Dora quickly finds herself leading Boots (her best friend, a monkey), Diego, and a rag tag group of teens on a live-action adventure to save her parents and solve the impossible mystery behind a lost Inca civilization.
