Golden Globe victor Gina Rodriguez will star in a live-action feature adaption of popular '90s franchise Carmen Sandiego for Netflix.

The Jane the Virgin and Annihilation star will star in a live-action Carmen Sandiego film, according to Deadline. This is the second Carmen Sandiego project that Netflix and Rodriguez will be working on.

Deadline reports that Netflix has acquired the live-action rights to the elusive thief and they have plans to make a "standalone Carmen adventure that will embrace the beloved '90s property".

This will make two outings for Rodriguez as Carmen as the streaming network announced past year that it had greenlit an original animated series, set to premiere in 2019, about the worldwide criminal with Rodriguez voicing the cartoon avatar.

No alarms reported during Russian mall fire that killed 64
The Investigative Committee , which handles major crimes in Russian Federation , said 10 people were being treated in hospital. She said investigators, who have opened a criminal investigation into the blaze, were looking into other possible violations.

The Carmen Sandiego animated series should be released on Netflix sometime in 2019. Rodriguez is tied to voice the title character in the animated space as well, with Stranger Things star Finn Wolfhard voicing Carmen's accomplice, Player. Rodriguez will produce the feature-length film through her production company I Can and I Will, alongside Kevin Misher (It's Kind of a Funny Story, Mirror Mirror) and Caroline Fraser, with Andy Berman (Psych, Rosewood) executive producing. Misher's Misher Films produced Miss Bala.

Carmen Sandiego does not now have a release date.

If you're a fan of Carmen Sandiego, this news could not be any better. In addition to the animated series and the live-action film, a new book series featuring Sandiego will drop around the time of the show's launch.
