“I am so happy about that,” she told the outlet. “I really do feel like when people always ask me about rebooting my movies, I am like, ‘No those movies were wonderful’, but what they should do is take inspiration from them and do something completely different but inspired, so that just sounds fantastic.”
According to Deadline, the show centers on “four young Latinas starting high school as they overcome their feelings of invisibility while exploring what it means to leave childhood behind through the lens of the traditional female coming-of-age rite: the quinceañera.”
As for who she’d want to star as her character Samantha in the new show, Molly said she’d love for it to be “one of my daughters.”
