Jessica Alba is said to be starring in a "reboot" of the popular Spy Kids series, starring as a retired spy and mother to a baby and two preteen stepkids, helmed by her Machete director, Robert Rodriguez.

Now that the original Spy Kids, Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara, aren't kids anymore, Rodriguez is looking to reinvigorate the series which means Antonio Banderas and Carla Cugino are also out as the spy parents (although it's likely that all four of the original cast will make appearances.) THR says shooting is set to start next month in Austin, Texas.

Jessica is mom to a baby of her own, Honor Marie Warren, 2, so we bet she's thrilled to do something her little tyke will actually be able to watch! Cuz Honor seeing mom as a murdered hooker in The Killer Inside Me is probably not advisable...
