As reported exclusively in Deadline, superstar comedian Gabriel “Fluffy” Iglesias will produce and star in a Netflix original animated film, I, Chihuahua, to be directed and co-written by Emmy-winning animator Jorge Gutiérrez. This will be the second collaboration for Gutiérrez and Iglesias, who worked together previously on Netflix’s hit animated series Maya and the Three. Maya won the prestigious “Annie” animation award for Best Animated Television/Broadcast Production for Children.
According to Deadline, Iglesias will voice the titular chihuahua, who must don the mask of the Luchador (a form of Mexican wrestling, in which the participants never reveal their faces) to travel around the world fighting for his family. Iglesias’ love for his own Chihuahuas, Risa and Vinnie, is well-documented, taking them on the road with him to all of his gigs. In an interview with Modern Wellness, he said, “Since I was a little boy, I’ve had chihuahuas. My love for them started with my first little guy, Dino.”
