The American comedy-adventure movie series of the outstanding contemporary visionary Robert Rodriguez "Spy Kids" was launched in 2001. It consists of four paintings, in the center of the narrative of which there is a large family of spies, tirelessly fighting with villains claiming world domination. Each of the films turned out to be a kinetic and funny sight that excited children of all ages. One of the main characters of the epic is Juni Cortes.
Special children
In the first installment of Spy Kids, Juni Cortes and her sister Carmen find out that their parents are government agents. The boy is weak, often becomes the object of ridicule of peers. He spends all his free time watching the TV show “The Flypov Fugley”.
The atmosphere is heating up when the couple Cortes, having gone on the next task, disappears without a trace. Brother and sister set off in search of parents, discovering traits such as courage, courage and perseverance.
In the second episode of 2002, subtitled “The Island of Unfulfilled Hopes,” Carmen and Junie Cortes confront the villain Gigles trying to take possession of the transmuker. They have to go to a mysterious island, flooded with mutant animals, in addition, they have competitors - Gary and Gerti.
In 3D and 4D
Carmen and Juni Cortes are getting older, and their enemies are more sophisticated and stronger. In the third part, “The Game is Over” (2003), they enter into a confrontation with Sylvester Stallone. This time, brothers and sister are waiting for adventures in the virtual world of a 3D computer game, which provides the opportunity for their characters to freely penetrate the real world.
Perhaps the “Spy Kids” would have remained a trilogy, if not for the scope of Robert Rodriguez’s creative imagination. After a significant break, the director removes the fourth episode of the franchise “Spy Kids in 4D” (2011). In this part, in the center of the story, new children R. Blanchard and M. Cook, who fall into the binding no worse than before, Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara. Matured Juni Cortes and his sister appear in the film, but in a short episode.
Rodriguez wisely reasoned that the universe of “Spy Kids” had become complete, did not invent a bicycle. The director presented to the public another tale of lost time.
Actor
In all four films, the image of Junie was embodied by Daryl Christopher Sabara, who was born in mid-June 1992 in the town of Torrance, California. The boy has a twin brother who also practices acting. In addition to cinema, Daryl is engaged in ballet, performs with a regional ballet troupe. His creative career began at a fairly early age, before collaborating with Rodriguez, he managed to star in four television films, and in the TV series “Anything” Sabara played the role of a young spy. But a real breakthrough was the participation in the project “Spy Kids”. The actor embodied the image of Juni Cortes in each episode of the franchise, but, fortunately, did not become a hostage to one role. To his partner Alex Vega, who played Carmen, Daryl was treated like an older sister, now they maintain friendly relations. Among the recent works of the performer are the roles in the films “Halloween 2007”, “Machete”, “John Carter” and “Philosophers”.
