First Look at Isabela Moner as Dora the Explorer in the Live-Action Movie


Believe it or not, Michael Bay is producing a Dora the Explorer movie with Platinum Dunes, and everyone doesn't know what to expect. Isabela Moner has been cast as the face of the franchise, and now we have our first image of her as the ‘super cool exploradora.'

Check it:

I'll admit, with Bay onboard, I thought the movie was supposed to be some kind of gritty reimagining, but the photo actually looks bright and colorful. The costume looks incredibly faithful to the cartoon but still can't imagine how the material will be adapted into a movie. Is it going to be a realistic take, or are we going to have Dora talking to animals like Boots and Swiper?

How about the backpack? Does it talk? Who's playing the map.

It's still unclear who the audience of this movie actually is. The kids who grew up watching Dora are well into their young adult years, so I thought they would age up the character and concept a bit this time.

Knowing Michael Bay's track record, some diehard fans will not like what he does to the material, but I can imagine a whole group of kids who will fall in love with Moner's Dora.
