Just ahead of the release of the new Disney+ Original movie, “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip”, Disney hosted a special screening of the film at AMC’s Sunset Place in Miami, Florida.

Attending the event included the stars of the movie, including Eva Longoria, Paulina Chávez, and Cheech Marin, who joined director Marvin Lemus in Miami to celebrate the film’s upcoming release. They were joined by guests, including Jessica Alba, Ana Navarro, and Diana-Maria Riva, as well as local community members from Big Brother/Big Sister, Embrace Girls Miami, Super Moms Miami, and local Girl Scouts. 

“Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Road Trip” follows 11-year-old Alexander and his family as they embark on a dream Spring Break vacation to Mexico City only to have all their plans go terribly wrong when they discover a cursed idol. The family is put to the test until they resolve to return the idol to its rightful home. The film, which stars Eva Longoria, Jesse Garcia, Paulina Chávez, Rose Portillo, Cristo Fernández, Harvey Guillén, Mabel Cadena, Michelle Buteau, and introducing Thom Nemer, with Cheech Marin, is directed by Marvin Lemus and written by Matt Lopez, based on the book “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day” by Judith Viorst. The producers are Shawn Levy, Dan Levine, Dan Cohen, Lisa Henson, with Eva Longoria, Emily Morris, and Shelly Strong serving as executive producers. 

Alexander Garcia (Thom Nemer) has always believed he has the worst luck in the world, so when his mom Val (Eva Longoria) devises a plan to bring her seemingly disconnected family on a fancy vacation to Mexico City aboard a luxury RV as part of her travel writing job, he is sure it will end in disaster. Despite his fears, the family – including dad Frank (Jesse Garcia), teen sister Mia (Paulina Chávez), Grandma Lidia (Rose Portillo), and Grandpa Gil (Cheech Marin) – set out, only to find absolutely everything is going terribly wrong. When the family discovers an ancient, cursed idol may be to blame, they must work together to return it to where it belongs.

The all-new family comedy will stream exclusively on Disney+ around the world on March 28th, 2025.
