Robert Rodriguez’s Spy Kids holds a special place in the hearts and minds of an entire generation, with the original trilogy that released in consecutive years between 2001 and 2003 proving to be a widely-popular and eminently successful sci-fi fantasy franchise that was fun for the whole family.
As much as its creator has tried to recapture the magic repeatedly through the needless fourth installment All the Time in the World, animated TV series Mission Central, and even the in-development reboot that finds Rodriguez overhauling his own IP for Netflix, anyone born in a certain timeframe tends to disregard anything that doesn’t involve Alexa Vega and Daryl Sabara’s siblings Carmen and Juni Cortez.
However, any rose-tinted remembrance of Spy Kids has been torpedoed in an instant by Sabara’s wife Meghan Trainor, who decided to share with the world some rather personal information that’s ended up causing chaos across social media after the original target audience for the beloved property felt the instantaneous need to try and cleanse it from their minds.
Trainor has developed a reputation for sharing a little too much into the life she shares with Sabara, even if most people thought the revelation they have side-by-side toilets in their bathroom and occasionally pooped together would be its apex. Sadly not, leaving countless Spy Kids aficionados across the world left with no other option but to burn their hard copies, make a vow never to revisit the saga again, and do their damndest to try and forget that which they wish they’d never learned in the first place.
