Dora & the Search for Sol Dorado just dropped a trailer and it is giving Indiana Jones meets Y2K Latina slay queen energy—and we are eating it up like map-shaped churros.
💅Starring Samantha Lorraine as Dora the “I’ve Been Through Some Things” Explorer, our girl is now 16, armed with eyeliner, trauma, and the vocabulary of someone who’s been narrating jungle adventures since birth. She’s out here dodging booby traps, decoding ancient mysteries, and slapping evil in the face with a friendship bracelet. Character development? More like character glow-up.
🎒THE PLOT? OH, IT’S JUICY: Dora, her hunky-yet-wholesome cousin Diego (Jacob Rodriguez, certified jungle zaddy-in-training), and two brand-new chaos goblins—Naiya (who’s giving “CEO of common sense”) and her little brother Sonny (who has the energy of 47 Red Bulls and no regrets)—are on a jungle road trip from hell. Their mission? Snatch the legendary treasure of Sol Dorado before it falls into the wrong hands (aka someone who probably says “Let’s destroy the rainforest for profit” unironically).
🧠And just when you thought this was gonna be a cute jungle stroll, boom—Camila the Crusader (played by Daniella Pineda) enters like Lara Croft’s chiller cousin who drinks matcha and solves ancient riddles before breakfast. Oh, and plot twist—she’s Dora’s childhood hero. No pressure, Dora.
🙈WAIT. WHO’S THAT? IT’S YOUR BOY, Boots, voiced by none other than Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias. Yes, the monkey is back. He’s fluffy. He’s funny. And he’s got opinions on everything from vine-swinging etiquette to existential dread. This monkey does not monkey around.
📅Mark your calendars and cancel your plans, sweeties: “Dora & the Search for Sol Dorado” drops July 2nd on Paramount+ and Nickelodeon in the U.S., and then it’s swinging its way around the globe like a jungle vine with WiFi.
✨It’s got danger. It’s got drama. It’s got ancient ruins, teenage angst, and a monkey voiced by a comedy legend. What else do you need? A map? You already know Dora’s got you covered.
Swiper, don’t even try it. We’re grown now.
