Paramount+ has shared the trailer and premiere date for its Dora the Explorer reboot series.
‘Dora’ is created by Chris Gifford and Valerie Walsh Valdes and produced by Nickelodeon Animation. The original Dora the Explorer aired on Nickelodeon from 2000 to 2014, inspiring several spinoffs, including the 2019 live-action feature film ‘Dora and the Lost City of Gold’ starring Isabela Moner.
The streaming service’s ‘Dora’ is a CG-animated preschool series following Dora (Diana Zermeño), a young Latina explorer, and her best monkey friend Boots (Asher Colton Spence), as they embark on epic adventures in a fantastical rainforest. An official synopsis reads: “Guided by trustworthy Map (Anairis Quiñones), Dora and her friends must work together to overcome many obstacles while being challenged by the sneakiest fox, Swiper (Marc Weiner).”
Kathleen Herles, the original voice of Dora the Explorer, and Mike Smith Rivera will voice the roles of Mami and Papi. The cast also includes Maria Canals-Barrera, Danny Burstein, Katarina Sky, Donovan Monzon-Sanders, Tandi Fomukong, Quintún Muñoz and Chris Gifford, with Taboo and Kate del Castillo as guest stars.
‘Dora’ will consist of 26 11-minute episodes, and is set to premiere on April 12 on Paramount+.
