As a majority-minority state filled with culture and love of Hot Cheetos we are thrilled that New Mexico will serve as the setting for bringing this story to the big screen,” said Alicia J. Keyes, Cabinet Secretary, New Mexico Economic Development Department.

Previously announced stars Jesse Garcia and Annie Gonzalez will portray Richard and Judy Montanez.
“We are excited that the story of an iconic piece of American pop-culture will be made in New Mexico and employ thousands of local cast and crew. We welcome Eva Longoria and the entire team of Flamin’ Hot to our state,” said Amber Dodson, Director, New Mexico Film Office.
