As of late, Longoria has been busy promoting her forthcoming directorial debut, Flamin' Hot, which is expected to be released on Hulu later this year. The film tells the story of Richard Montañez, a Mexican American janitor-turned-business savant who helped launch Flamin' Hot Cheetos into a household snack. Leading members of the cast include Emilio Rivera, Lora Martinez-Cunningham, Dennis Haysbert, Tony Shalhoub, and Matt Walsh.
The Casa del Sol entrepreneur previously spoke to Variety about the making of her directorial debut.
"I think probably the greatest challenge was making sure we stayed true to the theme of the movie, which is opportunity is not distributed equally," she told the outlet. "And when that happens, you have to work twice as hard and twice as long and be twice as good. And you still have to persevere and the story is so many things. It's rags to riches, it's American dream 101, it's about perseverance, it's about the underdog. But at the end of the day, it's also about one person's perspective and struggle within themselves. So it's a beautiful, beautiful biopic."
